Having navigated the crypto world for so many years, I’ve realized one truth: the more complicated you make trading, the faster you’ll crash. Many smart people around me are like this—ultimately becoming market casualties.
I turned #比特币与黄金战争 from $30,000 into $10 million. There’s no secret—I'm neither well-informed nor exceptionally talented. Honestly, it’s about making complex things simple, then sticking to the simple.
Looking back, the pace of wealth growth is very clear: - $30,000 → $120,000, took two years - $120,000 → $600,000, done in one year - $600,000 → $1 million, just five months
The further you go, the faster it gets. But this isn’t because I trade more; quite the opposite—**true gains often have an inverse relationship with trading frequency**.
What I do might sound a bit naive, because it’s very straightforward:
**First Rule: Focus on One Trend** After a strong rally, wait for a volume pullback, then re-enter when volume breaks out again. No adding to positions, no holding through losses, no fantasies. If it breaks support? Exit immediately. That’s it—no need for complicated reasons.
**Second Rule: Stick to Two Numbers** Cut losses if floating loss exceeds 2%. Take partial profits at 10% gain. The entire system relies on these two lines. A 35% win rate? That’s enough. Many try to break this rule, thinking they can see further—results? Just paying tuition.
**Third Rule: One Moving Average Dominates** Use the 20-day moving average, set to a lighter color to reduce visual clutter. Spend 5 minutes daily looking at the 4-hour chart. If there’s a signal, place an order; if not, go about your day. Don’t obsess over the chart—this helps you hold onto gains. Patience is often destroyed by frequent chart watching.
**Fourth Rule: Take Profits Regularly** When I hit $120, I withdrew the principal. At $600, I took out half for steady allocation. Always keep only the “money you can afford to lose” in your trading account. Even if the market reverses, your mindset stays stable.
Those who mock my simple methods are mostly silent now. In crypto, it’s not about being clever—it’s about **discipline**. Don’t expect to catch every wave; just focus on the trends you understand, and that’s enough to make money.
If you’re tired of flashy indicators, staying up all night watching charts, and want a clearer path, here are a few ironclad rules—simple, repetitive, persistent.

To be honest, I've tried the 20-day moving average plus 2% stop-loss method a long time ago. It’s indeed reliable, but it also truly tests human nature... The hardest part isn’t finding the method, but sticking to it, brother.

To be honest, I've heard this logic many times before, but very few can truly stick with it. The key is not in the method itself, but in whether you can really avoid watching the market.

Exactly right, that's what I've been doing all along. Those who study all kinds of indicators every day have long become leeks haha

A 35% win rate is really enough, I totally agree... Many people just die chasing perfection.

To be honest, I've tried this methodology before. The key is to be determined and execute decisively. Most people fail because they think too much and do too little.

That really hits home. I'm now the kind of fool who stares at the market every day...
