# 8 Years of Trading Review: Achieving Stable Profits with Simple Logic
Over the years in the crypto world, from frequent liquidations to establishing a foothold, the biggest takeaway isn't discovering some magical indicator, but truly understanding the power of rules. Many people ask about the secrets to selecting coins and making trades. Honestly, the methods to make money are not complicated; what's complex is坚持执行 (persisting in execution).
In the early days, I also made foolish mistakes: getting overly excited by volatility, making reckless trades, and seeing my account plummet. Later, I realized that those impulsive decisions were the root cause of losses. Today, I’ve整理出来 (organized) this practical logic in hopes of helping you avoid pitfalls.
## Coin Selection Logic: Follow the Trend, Abandon the Obscure
Checking the涨幅榜 (top gainers list) is the first step—only coins that have truly risen have active markets and subsequent opportunities. Those that have been lying dormant for a long time are basically time black holes.
Don’t overly focus on daily noise; the monthly chart tells a clearer story. When MACD shows a bullish crossover, consider entering; if there’s no signal, stay patient and observe. Oversold rebounds sound tempting, but low-probability events often start losing money immediately after entering.
## Position Strategy: Anchor to the 70-Day Moving Average
The 70-day moving average line must be checked daily. When the price pulls back near the 70-day line with明显放大 (noticeable volume increase), that’s when you dare to add to your position; if this signal doesn’t appear, no matter how urgent, wait.
The simple rule after entering a position: hold when the price is above the line; if it breaks below, exit immediately. The common reason for losses is “not wanting to sell,” always hoping for a rebound, but this turns profits into losses.
## Take-Profit Rhythm: Partial Realization
Greed is the enemy of trading. Take 30% profit and cut half; if it continues to rise, cut the remaining part later. Market changes happen quickly. Missing this round isn’t a big deal; the next opportunity will come.
## Core Rule: Exit When It Breaks Down
This is the key to survival—regardless of how long you’ve held or how much hope for a rebound, if it breaks below the 70-day line, you must撤退 (withdraw) unconditionally. Don’t fight the market; don’t gamble your principal on tomorrow.
Trading has never been about fancy技巧 (techniques), but about执行力 (execution) and discipline of simple rules. Embed this logic in your mind, and you’ll have a better chance of surviving and profiting in the market long-term.

Is the 70-day moving average really that powerful? I feel like I almost got tricked into a rebound every time.

This 70-day moving average trick is truly amazing; I've made way more than I did with my previous reckless trades.

The 70-day moving average is indeed the key to survival; it's much more reliable than those flashy indicators.

The 70-day moving average is really amazing, but it still depends on the person... Some people just can't change their greedy habits.
