From 30,000 to 10 million, it all comes down to two words: simple.

The more years you spend trading, the deeper the understanding—those who make trading overly complicated ultimately become just chips in others’ boards. I don’t have insider information, nor am I a trading genius. The only secret is: break down complex things into simple ones, and push simple tasks to the extreme.

Numbers are the most convincing: it took two years to go from 30,000 to 120,000, one year from 120,000 to 600,000, and even faster—five months—from 600,000 to 1 million. The more I observe, the more I find a pattern: the speed of making money is inversely proportional to the number of times you tinker with it daily.

My approach is so simple it’s almost suspicious: only look at N-shaped patterns, wait for a strong rally with volume expansion, then a pullback with reduced volume, and only act when volume breaks out again. Once in, strictly follow the rules—cut losses on breakouts, no leverage, no adding to positions, no resisting orders. Stop loss at 2%, take profit at 10%. No need to watch a bunch of complicated indicators; a 35% win rate can ensure steady profits. It sounds easy, but in reality, only one in ten can stick to it—most people can’t resist the temptation of “smart moves,” and end up stepping into traps.

Keep an eye on the 20-day moving average, tone down the colors so you don’t overthink. Spend five minutes each day scanning the four-hour chart; if there’s a signal, place an order; if not, shut down. Eat and sleep when needed. When you make money, withdraw it in a disciplined way—take out the principal at 120,000, and when you hit 600,000, transfer half to stable assets. Those remaining in this circle are always the ones with money they can afford to lose.

Some say my method is too simple, but after all these years, I’ve discovered a truth: the ones who last the longest in the crypto world are never the smartest, but the most disciplined. Don’t dream of catching every market wave; real opportunities to turn things around only come a few times a year—what matters is whether you can recognize them. Some trends are better left alone; clarity and restraint are far more valuable than greed.
