A seemingly simple trading system has helped me move from early financial difficulties to current asset accumulation. This is not some motivational speech, but a real review based on years of experience in the crypto space, repeatedly learning from pitfalls.
This method involves no gambling, no speculation, and certainly no "insider secrets." It consists of four simple steps, but it is precisely this simplicity that makes it most likely to be underestimated by beginners—who think it’s too slow or too rigid. The reality is, the simpler the approach, the further it can take you. Those who truly commit to following it can survive bear markets, stay in the game, and earn their first profits.
**Step 1: Set the Direction with MACD**
Open the daily chart and prioritize coins showing a MACD golden cross, paying special attention to whether the cross occurs above the zero line. These assets are usually in a strong cycle, with a higher probability of rising. Don’t rush to place an order; choosing the right direction is already half the battle won.
**Step 2: Use the Daily Moving Average to Decide Positioning**
Continue analyzing the daily chart, focusing on the daily moving average line. If the price stays above the moving average, hold patiently; if it effectively breaks below, exit immediately. This discipline has saved me many times, helping me avoid large losses during retracements.
**Step 3: Volume Breakout as Entry Signal**
When the price reclaims the daily moving average and trading volume significantly increases, it indicates that funds are starting to concentrate. This is my most trusted entry point—no more waiting, just entering directly to capture the main upward phase of the trend.
**Step 4: Take Profits in Batches and Secure Gains**
When the gain reaches 40%, take off one-third of the position; at 80%, take off another third; if the price then falls below the daily moving average, exit all remaining positions. The goal is simple: lock in profits.
Ultimately, the method itself isn’t complicated, but execution is the hardest part. This system tests your attention to detail and discipline in execution. Follow the rules, don’t let emotions influence you, and avoid changing plans on the fly. Long-term adherence will naturally produce results.
It’s not just a set of trading rules; it’s a way of self-discipline. My success today is not due to luck or a single correct bet, but from repeatedly applying the same logic. Success isn’t about having the most complex strategy, but about how thoroughly you stick to it.

Discipline is easy to talk about, but how many actually take profits in batches? Most people are still trapped by greed.

It sounds like the old routine of MACD + moving averages, but really, only a handful of people can actually make money from it.
Persistence is the hardest part, and I agree—it's more effective than any secret trick.
I've known for a long time that discipline is the most important, but after losing 50% once, I completely forgot about it haha.
This process, to put it simply, is what all profitable traders are doing, but beginners tend to look down on it.
Partial profit-taking is indeed a good idea, but in real trading, it's easy to be tempted.
You're right, taking it slow actually makes you faster; I fell into the trap of rushing.
The real difficulty isn't the methodology itself, but overcoming one's own greed.

That's right, you just have to endure. Those who stay calm during a bear market will be the last to laugh.

Honestly, I've been using this set of tools for a long time, but the difficulty of execution has been seriously underestimated.
---
It sounds simple, but very few people actually take profits when they reach 40%, I used to be greedier than anyone.
---
The detail of MACD golden cross above the zero line is a bit particular, but I most agree with the step of exiting when the moving averages break out, it saved me a lot of trouble.
---
Another article teaching restraint, but restraint means you can't make quick money, and that's the hardest part.
---
I quite agree with the logic of taking profits in three stages, but in a bear market, this system also has to eat dirt, don't overhype it.
---
Simple methods are indeed the easiest to stick to, complex and flashy ones tend to die faster, I've seen too many people.
---
The discipline of moving averages is well explained, much more reliable than those messy indicator stacks.
---
It looks like it's teaching us self-discipline, but in fact, it's just telling us not to be reckless or gamble, everyone who understands gets it.

Honestly, I've been using this stuff for a long time, but it can be a bit tiring.

The most common question from beginners: why am I still losing money even when I follow these steps? Most likely, the rules have changed.
---
MACD golden cross sounds simple, but how many can actually hold out until 40% and then start taking profits in batches? Most have already cut losses early on.
---
The moving average line looks easy to stick with, but it's hard to maintain. Once you get pulled back a couple of times, you start making reckless decisions.
---
Making money is really that simple, so simple that no one believes it. People only start to think they're smart when they make things complicated.
---
Batched take-profit has definitely saved me before, but the prerequisite is that you have to survive until that day.
---
Discipline in execution? If it were really possible in the crypto world, everyone would be financially free by now.
---
Honestly, it's not about the method; it's about people being easily greedy. When it rises to 40%, they want to wait a bit longer, but in the end, they miss the last drop and everything is gone.
