My first habit before analyzing the market is to pull up the two-week gain and loss leaderboard. It's like checking the wind direction before setting sail; ignoring it can be costly.



My experience is that the most important thing every day is to focus only on those cryptocurrencies with suddenly increased trading volume. Projects without capital inflow, no matter how "bright their prospects," don't interest me much. When real money is involved, opportunities truly start to take shape.

But observing opportunities and grabbing them are two different things.

I never make decisions based on daily charts. The daily fluctuations are all noise signals; the real trend must be seen on the monthly chart. Once the MACD on the monthly level forms a golden cross, it's like an engine firing up, and the entire market can truly accelerate. Following up at this point is about riding the trend, not luck.

And what about the specific entry point? I only trust one line—the 60-day moving average.

After confirming the trend, I wait for the price to retrace to this line, while trading volume also increases. Only then do I heavily allocate. Clear support levels, comfortable entry costs, and a stable mindset naturally follow.

However, whether you can make money depends not on the moment of buying but on selling.

My stop-loss rule is as strict as it gets: if the price falls below the 60-day line, I exit everything immediately. No excuses, no sentimentality—no matter how much profit was made before. A moment of softness could wipe out all gains.

And how to preserve profits? The method is straightforward—take half of the unrealized gains when it reaches 30%; if it continues to rise to 50%, then cut another half. The remaining portion in hand is entirely run on profits, and the psychological pressure instantly disappears.

Some say this approach is too mechanical and lacks flexibility. But over the years, I’ve come to understand more and more: systematic traders make money, while those operating on intuition end up paying debts. Behind every rule are lessons I’ve learned from real funds.

Markets are constantly changing, but these principles will never become outdated.

As long as you stick to trend, position, and discipline—only capturing opportunities you truly understand—the market won't punish you harshly. I am already on this path, and the next big opportunity is brewing.

If you can hold this 60-day moving average, I will be convinced—way better than those who chase highs and sell lows every day.

The 60-day moving average is indeed solid, but the problem is that most people simply can't stick to the discipline...

That's right, discipline is essential; you can't operate impulsively based on feelings. I'm most afraid of those who chase after gains when prices rise and cut losses when they fall, ending up losing everything in the end.

I've been using the 60-day moving average for two years. Sticking to discipline is truly more important than anything else. Those who trade based on intuition have really gone bankrupt.

I have heard the saying "stick to the 60-day line" countless times, the key is to live and live, what do you think?

The 60-day moving average really is my lifeline, no exaggeration. I've seen too many people die on the phrase "this time is different."

I'm also using the 60-day moving average, but to be honest, I still get trapped. The key is whether you can truly hold on mentally; most people get stuck at the moment they can't persist anymore.
