When I first started with a few thousand yuan, all I could think about was doubling my money overnight. But what happened? Repeatedly getting liquidated and losing everything.
It wasn't until later that I realized: surviving with small capital doesn't rely on predicting with divine accuracy; it depends on embedding discipline into every trade. This seemingly simple approach helped me grow from five figures steadily into seven figures through consistent compounding.
**Tip 1: Only look at one signal when choosing coins**
Don’t get overwhelmed by news and hype. Focus on the daily MACD golden cross—especially those above the zero line. Indicators don’t lie; they tell you that the trend has already started, and you just need to follow. During Bitcoin’s rally and ETH’s surge, as long as the golden cross appears and you follow, significant profits are within reach.
**Tip 2: Have a line for your position**
Hold onto your position when the price stays above the moving average. Exit immediately if it breaks below. Don’t hope for a rebound or get caught up in missing out. Rules are not suggestions—they are the bottom line. Half of the people losing money aren’t wrong about the direction; they just can’t bear to cut losses and stubbornly hold on.
**Tip 3: Use two indicators for entry and exit**
Entry: Price breaks above the moving average with volume exceeding 30%.
Exit: Take profit at 40% and reduce 1/3, then at 80% reduce another 1/3, and if the remaining drops below the moving average, close all. Let profits run but avoid rollercoaster trading.
**Tip 4: Execute stop-loss unconditionally**
If the daily close drops below the moving average, exit at the next open. One lucky break can ruin ten profitable trades; missing out is always better than getting liquidated. Opportunities are always available in the market, but your capital only comes once.
**Why does this "simple method" work?**
It goes against human nature—strictly restraining greed and fear instincts. The rules are clear, and emotions won’t interfere with decisions. The core principle is the probability: small losses, big gains, long-term market domination.
The biggest lie in the crypto world is making retail investors believe that getting rich quickly depends on intelligence. The reality is: consistent profits come from strictly following simple rules. When the next opportunity arises, ask yourself: continue gambling based on feelings, or let the rules pave the way for you.

To be honest, I can now truly execute the act of cutting losses. I've tried all the old methods of stubbornly holding on before—it's a painful lesson.

That's right, dead rules are better than smart people dying faster.

Exactly right, but the difficulty lies in execution. Most people fail at the step of cutting losses.

It's a bit harsh, but the ones who survive on the battlefield are never gamblers.
