Over the years of trading cryptocurrencies, I’ve summarized a harsh truth: the more complicated you make your trades, the more thoroughly you get wiped out. #数字资产市场动态



I started with 30,000 yuan and eventually grew it to 10 million, without relying on insider information or extraordinary talent. Honestly, it’s just about mastering the simplest methods and repeating them consistently.

**What the three stages of account growth look like**

From 30,000 to 1.2 million took two years—that period was mainly an exploration phase, constantly trial and error, refining my trading rules. From 1.2 million to 6 million only took a year, the pace clearly accelerated, and the power of compound interest began to show. Finally, from 6 million to 10 million, it only took five months—market conditions and discipline stacked together created acceleration.

What truly widens the gap between people isn’t how many trades you make in a day, but whether you can exercise self-control. My approach is actually quite boring to share:

**First trick: Only copy N-shaped patterns**
After a strong coin surges, it pulls back with low volume, then breaks out again with increased volume past the previous high—only then do I enter. If the pattern isn’t confirmed, I stay put. If it breaks support, I cut immediately. I never use leverage, never add to positions, and never fight the market head-on.

**Second trick: Stop-loss at 2%, take-profit at 10%**
Don’t draw fancy trend lines or pile on a bunch of indicators. A 35% win rate is actually enough to make money, but most people always want to challenge the rules and chase perfection.

**Third trick: One moving average determines the trend**
Just look at the 20-day moving average, and set it to semi-transparent to prevent overthinking. Spend five minutes daily reviewing the 4-hour chart—if there’s a signal, place an order; if not, turn off the screen. It’s that simple.

**Fourth trick: Lock in profits**
When I reached 1.2 million, I withdrew my initial capital. When I hit 6 million, I took out half to invest in more stable assets. The money left in the market is always the part I can afford to lose.

Some might say this method is too simple and mechanical. But look at those who truly survive and thrive in the crypto space—most of them are disciplined “fools.” You don’t need to master every wave of the market; just focus your energy on opportunities you understand.

If you’re tired of complicated indicators and staying up all night watching the charts, and want to stick to the simplest rules to secure every step, maybe you can try this approach. I’ve been through many pitfalls in the dark, and now I’m sharing my experience. $XRP

You're absolutely right, it's not about playing tricks; simplicity and straightforwardness are the keys to making money. I've already realized this logic a long time ago, but in the end, my own greed got the best of me. Discipline really helps people survive; I'm now trying to be a "fool." Stop loss at 2%, take profit at 10%. It sounds trivial, but very few can stick to it. Five minutes a day to look at charts, then turn off the device and walk away—that's the essence of trading. Compound interest is just time exchanging for space, provided you live long enough. I also want to cash out like you, but I just can't shake the thrill of going all in. It's quite heartbreaking; it turns out I've been using complexity as an excuse to cut my own losses. After reading your experience, I feel that all my indicators are fake—pure self-deception. Thinking back to when I was fully leveraged, I didn't even dare to look at the charts.

Honestly, the "Foolish Strategy" is the one that lasts the longest... I just can't stand those who shout about mysterious indicators every day, and then they disappear after one wave. Compounding is easy to talk about, but in reality, not many can resist messing around. It's all about discipline. Growing from 30,000 to 10 million sounds great, but the key point is—cash in hand is real money. The numbers on the ledger are just fooling yourself. Stop-loss should be strict. I agree with the 2% theory, but most people can't do it... The toughest part is mindset.

Well said, that's the point... I used to pile up all kinds of flashy indicators, but I kept losing more and more. In the end, you have to go back to the simplest logic. Knowing when to stay silent can help you last longer, and those who are still analyzing candlestick charts have already been washed out. Just do it, don't overthink.

Compound interest sounds simple, but few can actually stick with it. That's a harsh statement; most people are harmed by greed. Wait, has anyone really made real money using the 20-day moving average trick?

That's right, discipline outweighs talent. I've also been tricked too many times by those flashy indicators. Compound interest is truly amazing. Sticking to the rules in the early stages is indeed tough, but once you get through it, it's a whole new world. The N-shaped pattern is simple and straightforward, suitable for someone like me who lacks patience. The key is to cut losses when the level breaks, without all those complicated reasons.

You're absolutely right, it's all about restraint. My biggest lesson is that I can't resist the urge, and every time things get complicated, I get caught off guard.
