Many people have been in the crypto world for over a year, yet their accounts remain stagnant. Actually, it's not that the market doesn't give opportunities, but that the right methods haven't been found. Based on my own real trading experience, I have summarized a set of effective trading logic to share with everyone.



**Capital Planning is Key**
If you only have less than 200,000 yuan in principal, don't think about doing everything. As long as you catch one main upward wave each year, that's enough. This is far more reliable than constantly full positions and reckless trading all year round. Many people are greedy and end up losing all their gains due to a single wrong move.

**Start with Knowledge Accumulation**
Your wealth ceiling is determined by your level of understanding. Beginners should first practice patience and courage on a demo account, because a demo allows unlimited trial and error. But real trading is different; a big loss might be the start of exiting the market, and you may never recover.

**When Good News Appears, Follow a Routine**
When major positive news hits, and you haven't sold on the same day? Remember, the next day’s gap up will likely be followed by a sell-off. The moment good news is realized, it’s often the beginning of negative sentiment brewing. This is a common market routine.

**Reduce Positions Before Holidays**
One week before major holidays, be sure to lower your positions, or even consider going completely flat. Looking back at past market trends, declines during holiday periods are highly probable. This is no coincidence.

**Core Logic of Medium to Long-Term Trading**
Keep sufficient cash reserves, and when prices rise, decisively sell; when prices fall, buy in stages. This rolling operation is the most stable strategy and the most controllable way to grow funds.

**Focus on Activity for Short-Term Trading**
For short-term trading, focus on two things: trading volume and candlestick patterns. Only choose assets with active volatility; avoid dull ones, as low trading volume can easily trap you.

**Downtrend Has a Pattern**
When the decline slows down, rebounds tend to be weak and sluggish; but once the decline accelerates, rebounds often come back quickly and fiercely. Understanding this rhythm can help you better grasp entry and exit points.

**Stop-Loss is a Lifesaver**
If you buy wrong, don’t hold on stubbornly. Timely stop-loss is the key. Protecting your principal is the fundamental prerequisite for surviving long-term in this market. Many people suffer because they stubbornly hold on.

**Focus on 15-Minute K-Line for Short-Term**
For short-term trading, keep a close eye on 15-minute K-line charts, combined with the KDJ indicator, which can help you more accurately identify buy and sell points. Details determine success or failure, and many overlook this detail.

**Mastery Over Knowing Everything**
There are countless trading techniques, but you don’t need to master them all. Mastering and thoroughly understanding a few methods is enough to stand firm in the market. Trying to do everything at once can scatter your focus, and in the end, you won’t do anything well.

All these are proven strategies through real trading. They are truly effective. To avoid pitfalls and achieve steady profits, the key is to have a clear mindset and strong execution.

That's very true; the key issue is still poor execution, just like all of us.

Honestly, I think this set of logic is very reliable, especially the part about stop-loss, I totally agree. The idea that one main upward wave is enough for the whole year sounds easy, but actually doing it is really difficult. The routine of not selling on the good news day but selling the next day, I've been burned by this before, and I truly fell for it. Reducing positions before holidays is very crucial; many people lose everything because of this. But the problem is, very few people can strictly follow these rules. Mastering one method is more practical than knowing everything, I deeply feel this. Short-term trading really requires watching the 15-minute K-line, but the mindset needed is not something most people can sustain. Holding on stubbornly is truly a deadly poison; I've seen too many people turn their lives around because of this. Everything said is correct, but the hardest part is execution.

The stop-loss strategy is spot on; so many people stubbornly hold on until liquidation.

You're right, but poor execution is the real killer. My painful lesson in stop-loss: last year, I held onto a coin too long and got liquidated. Catching a major upward wave once a year is really more reliable than daily trading. A year ago, my account was stagnant, and I only later realized that greed is truly toxic. I understand the consequences of not selling on good news; the next day, it always opens high and crashes. Reducing positions before holidays is so important; I lost money even during Golden Week. Cognition determines the ceiling; this saying hits home. I got wiped out on obscure coins in short-term trading, stuck so tightly. Feels like everything I say is a negative lesson—what haven’t I stepped on?

If you haven't made money in a year, it's better not to mess around. Instead of watching so many tricks, it's better to ask yourself first if you have the ability to execute.

What you said is indeed reasonable, but the key is that phrase about stop-loss saving lives. How many people have died because they stubbornly held on?
