Want to survive in cryptocurrency trading for the long term? Remember these 8 'rules of experienced traders' that can save your life.
Newbies impulsively lose money, while experienced traders earn steadily, which boils down to one thing—having a sense of rules.
After ten years of trading, what I rely on is not talent, but a set of 'methods to restrain myself at critical moments.'
Today, I’ll write it down clearly; those who can see this are destined to be lucky.
1. Don’t look at the market, don’t take action.
Focusing only on daily charts for short-term trading? Not enough.
The daily chart indicates the direction, while the 30-minute chart is for entry.
Some bearish candles may look weak, but if the structure on the 30-minute chart looks beautiful, it can open high and soar the next day—this type of opportunity doesn’t need to be grasped too often; two or three times a year is enough to profit.
2. If the trends aren’t aligned, even a glance could be disastrous.
If the direction is inconsistent and the structure is chaotic, you can still make money by going against the trend, but that’s called luck, not skill.
Going with the trend is always the lowest-cost choice.
3. If you’re not near the hot spots, it’s better to rest.
Short-term trading requires fighting around the flow of funds.
If you’re not in the hot spots, you’re fighting against a vacuum.
4. Always execute the plan, don’t execute emotions.
Impulsive trading is the primary source of losses for countless people.
“Trade your plan, plan your trade.”
5. Don’t blindly trust anyone.
Others’ opinions are, at most, suggestions.
Your own judgment is the steering wheel of your position.
6. Set the direction first, then choose the coins.
This is a common trait among all experts.
If the direction is right, even a mediocre coin can bring profits;
If the direction is wrong, even a leader coin can backfire.
7. Entering during an upward structure and guessing the bottom is gambling.
If you like to catch bottoms, you just like to be educated.
Prices always move toward the direction of least resistance, and coins during an uptrend are the least resistant.
8. After a big gain or loss, you must rest.
Whether it’s to celebrate or to average down, operations driven by emotions have a success rate close to 0.
Staying out of the market for a day makes it much easier to watch the charts.
In my own ten years, the accuracy of 'resting after a big win or loss' exceeds 90%.
It’s not skill that makes money, it’s the system + discipline + execution.
If you engrave these eight points into your bones,
From 4000 to 10 million: A retail investor breaking fate's true turnaround trajectory
The bit of legend on friends actually can be learned by you and me, but the vast majority cannot do it. Work from 4000 to 10 million. It's not talent, and it's not luck—
it's engraving the words 'survive' into your bones.
[Stage One: Start self-rescue from 300U]
Others come in fantasizing about making a big gamble to turn things around,
either blowing up their account or never playing again.
He does the opposite.
300U, only use 100U to open the market, follow two strict rules: Rise by 80% → immediately withdraw the principal Drop by 30% → stop loss without reason No impulse, no fantasies, no love for battle.
The 'Simple Method' validated over eight years: From debt to an 8-digit daily trading system
With the 'minimalist trading system' making 50 million, my method can be summed up in one sentence: The simpler, the more profitable. In recent years, countless people have asked me:
“How many indicators and how much data do I need to study in order to make stable profits?” My answer is always the same:
Learn less. Look less. Operate less.
I went from debt to an 8-digit income, relying on a 'ridiculously simple' minimalist system.
Just four steps, yet it's as stable as if I'm cheating.
1. Focus on the daily chart, not on any short time frames.
The only time frame you need to focus on is the daily chart.
While others are tossed around by 5-minute and 15-minute fluctuations, just focusing on one direction is enough.
92 days, from 2000U to 60,000U: It’s not about talent, but a systematic position management.
I started with 2000U and spent a full 92 days rolling it up to 60,000U.
It’s not a myth of becoming rich overnight, nor is it about doubling your money in one night, but rather a replicable, executable, and sustainable capital management system.
Many people believe that 2000U can’t achieve much, but what truly determines whether you can survive in the crypto space is not the principal amount, but your method.
Below is the trading framework that I adhered to for those 92 days:
1. Always divide the capital into 5 parts: each position only takes 400U.
I never fully invest, nor do I increase my positions; I always maintain an 80% safety cushion at all times.
It's not luck! The 700U small account doubling technique, successfully tested by an office worker.
He was originally just an ordinary office worker with only 700U in his pocket, thinking of trying his luck in the cryptocurrency market.
After 14 days, his account became 4120U—not by luck, but through a rigorous method.
Every step I took with him had logic, rhythm, and basis.
I only make two trades a day, no wild betting, no impulsiveness, relying on stability, precision, and courage. I've taught this method to quite a few people, and many of them have turned their fortunes around. If you want to know how 700U turned into 4120U? It's actually just three simple strategies:
First strategy: find the wrong killing point, don't chase the price, wait for confirmation.
4 tips to help you 'lose 90% less' in the crypto world
To be honest:
In the crypto world, it's not about who charges in aggressively, but who has deeper understanding and survives longer.
Countless newcomers think perpetual contracts are a 'shortcut to doubling', but they end up poorer the more they play.
It took me a few years of detours to understand: those who can win are not the ones with the strongest skills, but those who know when to act and when to hold back.
These 4 principles can help you avoid most pitfalls.
1. Never go All in — The most expensive thing in the crypto world is impulsiveness.
Is full margin courage?
Wrong, full margin is 'handing your life and death over to the market'.
One market pullback and you're liquidated;
One false breakout and you instantly go to zero.
Real experts understand: position is not about output, it's about defense.
To survive is to earn the right to talk about recovery.
2. Go with the market, don't go against human nature.
Newbies always want to catch the bottom, want to grab reversals;
Veterans only do one thing: follow the trend and profit.
A pullback in an uptrend is a gift;
Don’t scare yourself before the trend is broken.
Trend continuation > reversal prediction, always.
3. Taking profits and cutting losses is the dividing line for long-term success.
Making money is easy,
The hard part is — not giving back what you've earned.
Three iron rules etched in your mind:
No single loss exceeding 5%
Aim for every profit to be over 5%
With a win rate of just 50%, your capital will steadily increase
It relies on discipline, not impulsiveness.
4. Less action is half the victory.
Too many newbies can place seven or eight orders a day, like playing a game.
The more you operate, the more you lose money.
Real profitable trades are all pre-planned.
Limit yourself to 2-3 high-quality trades a day,
It surpasses randomly clicking 100 times.
The market is not short of opportunities; what it lacks is your understanding of 'when to be idle, you must be idle'.
One last thing:
There are no 'quick success secrets' in the crypto world.
All stable profits come from four things:
No all-in, follow the market, maintain discipline, and trade less.
If you can do these four things, they are worth more than any get-rich-quick scheme. #加密市场观察 #美联储降息 $BOB $XNY $ZEC
It's not about talent, it's about these 8 iron rules: the truth of my ten years in cryptocurrency
In ten years in the cryptocurrency world, I've seen too many people come in wanting to get rich overnight, but in the end, they all become just numbers on someone else's balance sheet.
To say something unpleasant - if you can last ten years in the crypto world, you have already surpassed 95% of people.
Over the years, I have endured from liquidation, debt, and despair to currently stable profits. What I summarize is not theory, but eight survival rules that I bought back with money.
If you can really understand three of these rules, you could be considered half a step into the expert zone.
1. Don't have too many coins, don't mess up your positions, the simpler it is, the more profitable it becomes.
People with an account of less than 100,000 like to buy seven or eight cryptocurrencies.
I am 37 years old this year, from Anhui, and currently living in Hunan.
Eight years ago, I entered the cryptocurrency space with 5,000 yuan, completely ignorant of technology and trends, and I persevered through sheer determination.
Over the years, I have experienced soaring prices, endured crashing markets, and witnessed too many stories of 'getting rich overnight and being liquidated in a day.'
Now my account has reached eight figures, and this year alone, just from trading $ETH , $BTC , and $SOL , I have steadily earned over 1.7 million U in half a year.
I have a house in Xingsha, a villa in Shaoyang, and I enjoy the freedom of time with a settled heart.
Having come this far, I truly understand —
The experts in the cryptocurrency space are not the ones who charge in fiercely, but those who can remain steady amidst chaos.
In the past few years, I have compiled the seven most valuable lessons.
It's simple yet complex.
But if you can take it to heart, you can really avoid many detours:
1. Many people focus on price fluctuations but overlook the true language of the market — trading volume.
Volume is the heartbeat; once you understand volume, you have entered the realm of trading.
2. Don't panic when the price spikes and then slowly drops; that often means the main force is pretending to be dead while accumulating.
The real trap is when a large volume is followed by a big bearish candle; that is the expert's way of 'washing out and changing players.'
3. After a flash crash, don't rush to get in when it starts to rise slowly.
Often it is not a reversal but the last wave of 'distribution.'
4. High volume doesn't necessarily mean a top, while low volume can be even more dangerous.
When there is no volume during an uptrend, it's a warning signal.
5. Did you see a massive volume spike at the bottom? Don't overthink it.
The real bottom emerges slowly after the volume stabilizes.
6. Trading cryptocurrencies is not about charts; it's about people's sentiments.
Volume reflects consensus, and price reflects emotions. If you can read volume, you can understand most people.
7. The most challenging lesson: the highest level of trading is 'nothing.'
No greed, no rush, no fear. You can hold cash or go in heavy.
Achieving this means you have truly transformed from a trader into a manipulator.
To be honest —
The cryptocurrency world has never been about speed but about who can endure and who can maintain their composure.

How to Achieve Extreme Growth with 2000U in a Week? Here are Four Top-Level Logics for Real Practitioners
$PIPPIN No Mysticism, No Luck, Only Methods and Execution.
1. Early Morning Market: Only Masters Can See the 'True Battlefield' Every day from 2 AM to 5 AM Beijing time is the window period for the handover between Wall Street and quantitative institutions, where liquidity is thinnest, volatility is worst, and trends are most easily 'misunderstood'. True masters are not making noise during the day, but are finding direction and catching reversals at this point in time.
Last year, that ruthless person who turned 500U into 190,000U captured the SOL's abrupt plunge during this period.
2. Three Warehouse Strategy: Violent Doubling Must Have 'Bullet Allocation Precise'
Can ordinary people earn 500,000 in the crypto world in a year? Don't think too far; let me lay out the most realistic path for you: it’s possible! And it’s not about luck; it’s about methods, rhythm, and execution.
1. If you want to make money, learn to 'catch the rhythm' instead of chasing dreams of getting rich quickly.
Most people who lose money perish due to three words: chase! rise! kill! fall!
Those who can truly make money are always as steady as an old dog:
Early bull market: slowly invest in mainstream coins.
Mid bull market: test hot spots with small positions and make waves.
Late bull market: take profits when you can, secure your gains.
Capturing two or three decent trends in a year, turning a 100,000 principal into 500,000 is not an exaggeration.
2. Don't fantasize about turning small funds into a fortune overnight; stability is the only way out.
With a capital of 50,000 to 100,000, the biggest taboo is the 'hundredfold coin fantasy syndrome'.
What you should really do:
Only follow the trend, don’t go against it.
Test with small positions; add to your position once the direction is right.
Essential skills you must learn: how to view support and resistance, how to analyze volume, how to set stop losses, and how to manage positions.
In short: survive first, then make money.
3. Making money relies on a system, not on random guesses.
90% of retail investors in the crypto world do not have a trading system,
buying based on mood, buying based on hype, buying based on others' recommendations...
The result is:
making small profits slowly, losing large sums in an instant.
A mature system is very simple:
Be clear about why you are buying.
Set stop losses properly.
Define your goals.
Stick to patterns you are familiar with.
Repeat actions that make money, and the money will naturally accumulate.
4. The true path to making money has actually been written down long ago.
Here’s the most realistic and practical strategy for ordinary people:
Main trend: Hold mainstream coins steadily for 30%-50%.
Liquidity: Use 30% for airdrops, new listings, and small opportunities.
When the trend is strong: Use 10% of your position for contracts to amplify profits.
Lock in drawdowns: must not exceed 5%.
Be bold when it’s time to charge, be decisive when it’s time to collect; with a method, you can accumulate significant wealth.
One last piece of hard truth:
Wealthy individuals can rely on their capital to generate wealth aggressively;
For ordinary people, the only paths left are — rhythm, stability, systems, and combinations.
Not exaggerated, not impulsive, summarizing the operation of these three days at $PIPPIN , I myself feel it is a valuable million-dollar 'mindset lesson'.
Continuously watching the market for 72 hours, it's no exaggeration to say:
Not eating well, not sleeping, my mind is like a fully drawn bow, one loosening and it breaks.
But in the end, this time, I steadily moved from 2.28 million U to 10 million U, relying not on luck, but on fast actions, a stable mindset, and strict rules.
First shot: 0.110 long position — straightforward, neat, beautiful.
At noon on November 30, I observed that the bullish structure of PIPPIN was accelerating,
The market volume, emotional rhythm, and following speed were all synchronously amplifying.
I directly took the long position at 0.110,
This wave surged to 0.140,
467,000 U in hand, without any hesitation, profit-taking and leaving.
Doing the right trend, the logic is simple and effective.
Second shot: short position in reverse, but encountered a trend reversal.
After taking profit, I judged the emotions were overheated and opened a short position.
As a result, this coin directly 'tore upwards' to 0.195.
I wasn't scared, but I reacted quickly:
Immediately added a hedging long position to preserve the position.
At that moment, the account risk soared to the warning line,
But as long as the mind remains calm, the market cannot move you.
Third shot: late-night crash, a counterattack.
Last night, the PIPPIN structure completely collapsed, the trading energy was fragmented, I directly watched the market until dawn.
The market fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string,
All hedging and long-short positions took profit at key points,
This wave brought in 1.86 million U.
Until the moment my phone popped up 'All positions closed successfully',
I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This battle once again confirmed for me:
In the cryptocurrency circle, it's not about being bold to win,
It's those with a stable mindset, strict rules, and quick actions who live the longest.
Others only see numbers, what I see is just execution power:
When to enter, then enter
When to run, then run
When losing, do not linger
When gaining, do not be greedy
All operations in these three days seemed exciting,
But behind it is a discipline system honed over eight years.
In closing,
I did not rely on luck to reach 10 million U,
It was based on — judgment + speed + risk control + execution power.
The market can deceive, but rules cannot.
If you keep to the rules, the market will reward you. #中美贸易谈判 #加密市场观察 $ETH $SOL
