Want to avoid detours in the crypto world? Let's talk about those truly reusable trading strategies.

When the market plunges, your coins only drop a little? That's probably someone supporting the market. At such times, it's better to stay put.

Starting with technical analysis. Short-term trading only needs to watch the 5-day moving average—hold online, sell immediately if it breaks, don't wait. Mid-term traders watch the 20-day moving average, following the same rule: hold when above, sell when below.

If the main upward wave hasn't increased volume yet, that's the best entry point. When prices rise, continue holding with volume; when prices fall, reduce volume and stay above the trend line, but if volume increases and breaks the trend line, quickly cut positions—don't be greedy.

After short-term building positions, if there’s no significant fluctuation within 3 days, exit. Losses over 5%? Stop-loss immediately—don't hesitate.

In a sharp decline, if a coin halves from its top and falls for 8 days straight, it's oversold. This is a good time to consider accumulating.

Where is the wisdom in choosing coins? Focus only on the leaders—the ones with the strongest gains and the most resistance to declines. Don't worry about how much it has risen; the key is buying at the high point and selling at an even higher point.

The essence of trading is to follow the trend. Don't chase the lowest point when buying; choose a comfortable price. Don't try to guess the bottom, and avoid coins in a weak market.

What's the most common mistake after making money? Overconfidence. Every time you close a position, ask yourself: is this profit due to skill or luck? Building a reusable trading system is the foundation for consistent profits.

The last point is often the easiest to overlook: don't trade if you're not confident. Holding cash is also part of trading. First, protect your capital before talking about profit growth. Success depends on your win rate, not on acting every day.

These 9 rules are not complicated individually, but executing them together is the real dividing line.

It sounds good, but how many people can truly stick to this logic? --- 5% stop loss sounds simple, but a slight shake of the hand and changing your mind again—that's the real situation for most people. --- I agree with the leader resisting the decline, but the problem is having the courage to hold during the drop. The mindset really makes a difference. --- Holding no position is also part of trading. This sentence hits my sore spot every month. Once again, I missed out. --- I've really experienced the headiness after making money, feeling like I was chosen by the heavens. But in the end, I went all in and lost everything. --- The most heartbreaking thing is that anyone can talk about this logic, but execution is a different story. My account is a living example. --- The standard for judging a market support is a bit vague. How do you determine it's support and not just that it can't go down further? --- Exit after 3 days with no movement? Then how many times have I lost money and watched it take off? --- After reading this article, I feel like I don't know anything anymore. Staying in cash and lying flat feels more comfortable.

That's right, but very few people can actually do it. I'm most afraid of those who can't even manage a 5% stop loss.

That's true, but how many people can really stick to stop-loss? Most people are still waiting for a rebound when they lose 5%.

It sounds good, but how many people truly follow the principle of "don't trade if you're not confident"?

It sounds nice, but it's actually a discipline issue; most people can't do it.

empirically speaking, the data on retail trader success rates suggests this framework misses something crucial—where's the quantitative risk-adjusted return analysis? most of these heuristics lack proper KPIs to measure execution quality 🤓
