I've seen too many people switching between ten different moving averages and a variety of indicators every day, only to see their accounts keep shrinking. I used to be like that too, until I realized a fundamental truth: making money in the crypto world isn't about having the most sophisticated techniques, but about discipline and maintaining the right mindset. Today, I want to share this methodology. It might seem trivial to many veterans, but these are lessons I learned through actual losses and gains—a core logic that can help you exit alive and continue to profit.
**Choosing Coins Isn't That Complicated**
My criteria might sound too simple—just look for a MACD golden cross on the daily chart, preferably above the zero line.
Why above the zero line? Imagine judging whether a person is in an uptrend: when MACD crosses above zero, it indicates a bullish trend has formed. Entering at this point is like catching a ride that's already moving—your success rate naturally improves. I avoid coins that keep oscillating below zero because true trend reversals take time to develop, and there's no need to wait through that.
The core logic is: always focus on high-probability events. Things that seem like opportunities are often traps.
**The Secret to Holding: One Line Says It All**
Once I set my target, I stick to one line—the daily MA30 (30-day moving average). The rule is simple: hold as long as the price stays above it; exit if it breaks below.
When the price is above MA30 and volume surges, that’s my signal to fully buy in. This moving average is my warning line. As long as it stays above, I sleep well; if it’s broken, no matter what good news or gut feelings I have, I cut losses immediately. This method has helped me avoid countless liquidations during major dips.

That's right, but too many people are overwhelmed by indicators and end up losing their minds. I've also used the MA30 strategy, and it indeed lasts longer.
I have deep personal experience with intuition; so many times I've been betrayed by my own "feelings" to the point of bleeding. Discipline is the real key.
This logical approach may sound boring, but it's much more reliable than all those flashy technical analyses. It really tests human nature.
I also never touch coins when the MACD is below the 0 axis—that's gambling, not trading. Your standard is quite clear.
To be honest, compared to most people, you're already doing pretty well. Most are still crazily increasing leverage.

That's right, it's all about discipline. I used to be a metrics fanatic, but now I only look at the MA30 line, and I've actually lost less.
Really, the hardest moment is when you cut your losses, but it's also the most crucial.
This logic is so simple it's hard to believe, but it really works.
In the crypto world, it's really about mindset; technical analysis is just an auxiliary tool.
When the MA30 is broken through, you really have to be ruthless, or you'll end up in a self-destructive trap.
Pure technical traders are already dead; staying alive is the real key, everyone.
It may seem simple, but it's actually the greatest simplicity. Not many people can do this.
Nothing is more important than staying alive; profits are secondary.

You're absolutely right; discipline is truly more important than anything else. It took me a long time to realize this, and now I find myself checking the market less and making more money.

In simple terms, it's about simplifying complex things, similar to auditing smart contracts... Find the true critical path, and everything else is noise. When MA30 breaks out, exit. This discipline is more valuable than any technical indicator.

That's right, I also spent a long time realizing that discipline is the key to survival. No matter how many indicators there are, they are useless.
Actually, just wait for the MA30 to break and then exit. It sounds simple, but this is the only way to stay alive.
I don't even look at the MACD below the zero line; it's a waste of time. Most likely, this is the way to go.
I used to always look for some magical indicator, but it ended up making me lose money even faster. Now, just one line is enough to keep me going smoothly.
I approve of this logic; it's much more reliable than those flashy systems.
It should have been clear long ago that making money is not a technical issue. If your mindset can't pass the test, everything else is pointless.
