If you want to make stable profits in the crypto circle, relying solely on luck is far from enough. Over the years of market experience, I have summarized a set of relatively feasible trading logic, and I share it with everyone.
**When a strong coin experiences consecutive pullbacks? This is often institutions rebalancing.** For example, a mainstream coin drops for 9 days, and many choose to wait and see, but traders who truly understand the market know that this deep adjustment is precisely the process of reshuffling chips. The second wave of the main upward trend is often brewing at this time. Those who dare to gradually build positions at the bottom can see significant gains.
**A rise is not a reason for greed.** Coins that rise for two days in a row, the third day’s decision is crucial. If it’s time to reduce positions, do so. This is not cowardice but respect for market rhythm. Taking profits and securing gains is never outdated in the crypto world. Traders with good mentality rarely collapse due to greed.
**Coins with a single-day increase of over 7% need special attention.** Strong institutional stocks will continue their momentum, often with a second surge in the short term. But this also needs to be judged in conjunction with trading volume—breakouts with volume at low levels are true signals, while volume spikes at high levels with stagnation should be cautious.
**Pullbacks in a bull market are buying opportunities, but only if the trend is confirmed.** Not all declines are worth bottom fishing. Wait until the trend truly reverses before entering, which is much safer than blindly chasing highs.
**If the sideways movement lasts more than a week without a clear direction, it’s time to consider changing your approach.** There are so many market opportunities; there’s no need to stubbornly hold onto a coin with no action. Six days of sideways trading with no progress indicates that this coin currently has no major players involved. Switching targets promptly is the right move.
**Stop-loss should be executed as quickly as possible.** If you haven’t recovered your investment by the second day after entry, cut losses immediately. Don’t hope for a rebound; the market is often more brutal than you imagine. Learning to admit mistakes is the only way to survive until the next opportunity to make money.
**The continuous rise on the top gainers list has its规律性.** If a coin ranks high on the gainers list for two consecutive days, the fifth day is often a good point to reduce positions. "Where there are three, there are five; where there are five, there are seven"—this experiential rule is very valuable in short-term markets. Buy on dips, sell on the fifth day; greed can ruin these good opportunities.
**Volume is the most honest indicator.** Any price breakout without volume support is weak in credibility. Volume breakout at low levels indicates genuine capital inflow; volume stagnation at high levels signals distribution. Compared to just looking at candlestick patterns, experienced traders trust volume more.
**Follow the trend, not oppose it.** This is the most basic yet most easily overlooked rule in the crypto circle. Short-term look at the 3-day moving average, medium-term at the 30-day, long-term at the 80-day. When the 120-day moving average turns, it often signifies the true start of a major upward wave. Going with the trend, money will naturally come.
**Capital size is not a decisive factor.** Small accounts can also make money; key factors are methods, mentality, and discipline. Be patient and wait for your own wave of market. When the opportunity arrives, focus your efforts. Many people lose small capital because they lack patience.
Understanding is key before acting. Never make a move without a clear pattern—that’s my trading discipline. Stability is not slow; it’s the only way to survive longer in this market. How Bitcoin’s 2026 market will look depends on whether we truly understand the market logic now.

It sounds good, but how many can truly stick to it? I myself just think about cutting losses but can't remember to do it.

That's right, but too many people treat stop-losses as a joke, and as a result, they lose everything in one go, going back to square one.

They're all correct, but I still lose money. Maybe there's something wrong with my brain.

That's quite right, but the execution is difficult... I always want to sell on the fifth day, but I end up holding on tightly every time.

That's correct, but 99% of people can't do it, especially the part about stop-loss.

That's right, it's easy to understand but hard to do.

That's right, stop loss should be executed as quickly as possible. I used to be reluctant to cut losses, and as a result, I went from small gains to big losses.
This logic definitely makes sense; the key is discipline. Most people fail because of greed.
I've never fully understood the trading volume aspect. How can you distinguish a volume breakout at a low level from stagnation at a high level at a glance? Are there more specific reference standards?
I've seen many people share the experience of selling on the fifth day, but do real trades really hit the mark that precisely? It seems like more practice is needed.
Switching strategies after a week of sideways movement sounds simple, but it's hard to do. I always feel that if I wait a little longer, there will be a breakout.
I love the phrase "making money with a small account." Finally, someone said it. Don't try to persuade me to go all-in anymore.
Confirming the trend before bottom fishing is a tried-and-true method. Not every decline is an opportunity. I've fallen into this trap too many times.
Trying the 120-day moving average as a signal might be worth a shot. Need to review historical trends carefully.
But honestly, understanding the logic and actually executing are two different things.

just like mile 20 in a marathon, these 9-day dumpsters are where real runners separate from sprinters. accumulation phase hits different when you actually understand institutional flows.

This logic sounds good, but to be honest, most people still can't execute it. Just knowing to sell on the fifth day is useless.

It sounds good, but how many people can actually do it? Just looking at the stop-loss part makes me want to laugh. How many people know they should set a stop-loss, yet still turn around and end up liquidated out of greed.
