#数字资产市场动态 The people who truly make money in the crypto world are holding a solid methodology in their hands. But what about most retail investors? Either chasing highs and selling lows, or being led by news, in the end, their accounts shrink so much they don't recognize themselves.



I've seen too many people fall into the trap of overconfidence—thinking they can see through the market, only to lose all their previous profits with a single lucky psychological move. Those who survive? They are actually doing seemingly "stupid" things: entering when there's a signal, exiting when the signal breaks, with discipline always first.

First, let's talk about coin selection. There is really only one signal worth watching— the daily MACD golden cross. Coins like $BDXN, $STO, $FHE are also viewed this way. But you need to pick a reliable golden cross: preferably one that appears above the zero line. Such signals have been tested by the market and are much more reliable than fleeting news. Technical indicators don't lie; they are more effective than anyone shouting at the top of their lungs.

The trading logic is also very pure—stick to the daily moving average line. When the price breaks above it, hold with confidence; once it falls below, turn around and exit. No luck, no fantasies about a rebound—that's self-deception. The moment it breaks the moving average, you should know what to do. This isn't advice, it's a rule.

The entry timing depends on two things. Breaking through the moving average is just the basics; you also need to see whether the trading volume is expanding simultaneously—only when both are in place is it a signal to go all-in. Exiting is even simpler: take profit at 40% gain, then again at 80%, and if the price falls back below the moving average, clean out the rest.

Stop-loss is the most critical. If the closing price falls below the moving average, you must exit the next day—no exceptions. Being soft once can ruin months of gains. No need to rush if you miss it; just wait for it to re-break the moving average before buying back. The market won't stop just because of you.

Honestly, this method doesn't seem particularly clever, even a bit ordinary. But because it is simple and straightforward enough, it becomes what most retail investors lack the most— a real way to survive and make money. When signals are clear, position sizes are controlled, and the risk-reward ratio is set right, you'll suddenly find yourself capturing a large portion of the market's profits.

Opportunities are always there. But if you can't even establish a simple, clear discipline, all the opportunities in the world are useless.

Sounds good, but in practice, most people still can't do such "stupid" things. Human nature is too damn greedy. After the MACD golden cross signals an entry and the price rises 20%, they want to sell, only to miss the subsequent doubling and chase in, getting trapped. Where's the discipline they promised? I've tried using moving averages for stop-losses; it can indeed keep you alive, but it's easy to get shaken out by repeated washouts and lose your composure. Honestly, there are probably only a handful of people who can stick to this set of rules for three months without wavering.

That's right, discipline is the line between life and death. I used to be repeatedly knocked out by FOMO, and only later did I realize that technical indicators are the true friends. Relying on calls is all talk; the real deal is the MACD golden cross combined with volume. Sometimes the hardest part is just at the moment of stop-loss. You want to wait for a rebound, but then you weaken and end up losing several months in a row. Methodology isn't complicated; the key is whether you can really stick to it. I've seen too many people who know these rules but just can't do it, and in the end, it's all the same outcome. Moving averages are something that doesn't lie, much more reliable than the news in the community.

That's right, discipline is the key. I fell for overconfidence and once my soft-heartedness took over, I went straight back to square one. --- The rule is to sell as soon as the moving average breaks below, this is the hardest part, always thinking about waiting for a rebound. --- Oh my, I am the kind of retail investor who gets led by news, so frustrating. --- The MACD golden cross above the zero line is a good detail, much more reliable than blindly listening to rumors. --- The key is execution. Knowing is one thing, but being able to sell decisively when the time comes is another. --- Take a 40% gain and reduce once, then another 80% reduction, simple and brutal but effective, much better than my previous reckless operations. --- Seemingly simple methods indeed last the longest, that hits hard.

That's correct, but there are too many people with poor execution skills; even if they understand, they can't do it.

That's right, it's such a simple thing that most people still can't do. Cutting losses really requires determination; I've seen too many people revert to their previous state the moment they become soft-hearted.
