What exactly is difficult about selecting coins and trading?

Many people ask me this question. My answer might disappoint you—there's no secret, and the difficulty lies in sticking to the simplest principles. But it’s precisely these straightforward rules that determine whether you make a profit or a loss.

If you've also experienced impulsive decisions during market fluctuations and end up just sighing at the falling candlesticks, then try the methods I’ve developed over the years:

**Tip 1: Look for opportunities in assets that are being chased by capital**

I check the gainers list every day, but not to chase the rise. The key is to identify coins that have recently attracted obvious capital inflows and increased trading volume. Coins without attention from funds are like engines without fuel—no matter how good the underlying technology is, they won’t start.

**Tip 2: Use long-term charts to judge the trend, don’t bet on daily ups and downs**

Switch to the monthly chart and see if the MACD can form a golden cross above the zero line—that’s just a mid- to long-term trend signal, not a buy or sell order. Many people confuse these two, leading to frequent stop-losses.

**Tip 3: The best entry points are near the 60-day moving average**

When the price pulls back to the 60-day line (or similar important moving averages) and stabilizes with increased volume, I pay more attention. If there’s no clear sign of stabilization, just wait—patience itself is an advantage.

**Tip 4: Stop-loss is an automatic rule, not determined by personality**

Set your stop-loss below key moving averages or recent lows. Once broken, exit immediately. The reason for profits turning into losses is often just one thing—refusing to exit according to the pre-set stop-loss.

**Tip 5: Reduce positions gradually, don’t sell at the highest point**

When profits reach key levels like 30% or 50%, I reduce my holdings in stages. This locks in gains and helps manage your mindset, preventing greed from giving back all your profits.

**Tip 6: Exit decisively once the trend breaks**

If the price effectively breaks below the long-term trendline, close your position and observe. Never fight the market—that’s the first rule for long-term survival.

In the market, the more complicated things are, the more likely they are to be traps. True profit comes from using the simplest rules to tame the most complex human nature.
