I once knew a guy who entered the crypto space with only 1000U.



Like most people, he stared at group messages all day and bought whatever others shouted—chasing one hype today, another shitcoin tomorrow. Within three months, his account was down to just over 200U. $IN

He came to me asking what to do. I told him, don't rush to recover losses; first, get your rhythm straight.

Then I gave him four rules and told him to follow them.

First rule: No signal, no action. $BTW

I said, stop buying based on tips. Just watch the daily MACD. Only consider entering when it's a golden cross above the zero line. Without that signal, don't touch it, no matter how hot it gets. He was skeptical but followed through.

Second rule: Break the moving average, and you're out.

I told him to only focus on the 20-day moving average. Hold if the price is above it; sell if it breaks below—no hesitation, no fantasies. He asked, what if it bounces back right after I sell? I said, that's still better than being trapped.

Third rule: Pocket your profits.

I set a strict rule: take half profit at 40% gain, take another portion at 80%, and clear everything if it breaks the moving average. No lingering, no chasing the last bit.

Fourth rule: Stop loss is non-negotiable. #Saylor暗示增持BTC

If the daily close breaks below the 20-day moving average, exit the next day unconditionally. No exceptions. The habit of holding losing positions can't be tolerated even once.

Just these four rules. He followed them honestly for six months.

His account didn't multiply many times, but it slowly grew from over 200U to over 2000U. Most importantly—he never got liquidated again.

He later told me something that I still remember:

Turns out, making money isn't about being right—it's about not being wrong.
