Treat crypto trading as a job, and you can truly make money.
In my early years in the space, I was just like most people: staying up late watching charts, buying high and selling low, experiencing liquidation, insomnia, and anxiety—all of it.
Later, I changed and focused on one thing: treating crypto trading as a job, clocking in and out on time, and executing according to plan.
The following tips are hard-earned lessons from my actual trading losses. Beginners should bookmark them:
1. Only trade after 9 PM
During the day, there are too many news and erratic fluctuations; the market moves wildly like a seizure.
Now I basically only operate after 9 PM. By then, the news has mostly been digested, the candlesticks are cleaner, and the direction is clearer.
2. Take profits immediately and secure them
Don't be greedy. If you earn 1000U, first withdraw 300U to secure it, then play with the rest.
I've seen too many people who 'earned 3x and wanted 5x,' only to have a single pullback wipe everything out, not even leaving the principal.
3. Rely on indicators, not feelings
Don't enter based on 'feelings'; that's the fastest shortcut to liquidation.
Install TradingView on your phone. Before trading, check these three:
MACD: Whether there is a golden cross or death cross
RSI: Whether it is overbought or oversold
Bollinger Bands: Whether there is a squeeze or breakout
Only consider entering when at least two of the three give a consistent direction.
4. Move your stop-loss up as price rises
When you have time to watch the charts, move your stop-loss up as price rises. For example, if you bought at 1000 and it rises to 1100, move the stop-loss to 1050.
If you can't watch the charts, always set a hard stop-loss of 3% to prevent a sudden crash from taking everything.
5. Withdraw your profits according to a plan
The numbers in your account are not real money; only when they are withdrawn to your bank account are they real.
Withdraw 30%-50% of each profit; don't keep it all hoping for a 10x.
6. There are skills to reading candlesticks; don't just click randomly
For short-term trading, look at the 1-hour chart. Two consecutive bullish candlesticks can be a signal to consider going long.
If it's consolidating, look at the 4-hour chart to find support levels. Consider entering when the price approaches support.
7. Avoid these pitfalls at all costs!
Don't use heavy positions with high leverage; one wrong direction and everything is gone.
Don't touch altcoins you don't understand; easy to get rekt.
Make at most 3 trades a day; more than that and you'll easily lose emotional control.
Never borrow money to trade crypto! Never! Never!
Crypto trading is not about getting rich overnight through impulse; it's about consistently executing a strategy.
Treat it as a job: log in at the set time every day, operate according to plan, shut down when it's time, and rest when you should.
You'll find that you make money more steadily.
