I've seen too many guys obsessing over a bunch of indicators every day, only for their accounts to end up deep in the red. I’ve taken my own detours too—going from debt to earning over 30 million in 8 years. Ironically, what worked for me was a “foolproof” trading system with an insanely low failure rate.
To put it simply, it’s just four strict rules—so mechanical that you don’t even have to think:
**Rule 1: Only look at the daily chart**
Don’t stare at those 5-minute or 15-minute charts that jump all over the place—you’ll drive yourself crazy. The daily chart is enough. Focus on the MACD golden cross, ideally when it appears above the zero line—this pattern is the cleanest and most effective, with the highest success rate.
**Rule 2: Pick one moving average to trust blindly**
Is the coin price below this daily moving average? Play dead and don’t move. Once it breaks above? Only then consider taking action. It’s that simple. One line separates trending from counter-trending trades—watching more than one just adds confusion.
**Rule 3: Scale in and out methodically**
After buying, if the price breaks above the daily moving average and volume explodes (exceeds the daily average), go all in. Up 40%? Sell one-third. Up 80%? Sell another third. If it falls below the moving average, exit everything instantly—don’t hesitate.
**Rule 4: Cut losses immediately—no attachment**
Your buy logic is based on the daily moving average. If it breaks down the next day, sell it all—don’t hope for a “technical pullback.” In reality, if you follow this system, breakdowns are rare anyway. Even if you sell too early, just buy back when it’s above the moving average again. The key is to cut losses early.
This method may seem dumb, but it’s this mechanical discipline that let me profit from trends while keeping risks tightly controlled. No gambling against the market—just pure execution to overcome human nature.

Can you really make 30 million with just one moving average? Man, you must have nerves of steel.

The daily moving average strategy is indeed solid, but it's easily ruined by human nature.
---
Mechanical execution really does suppress human nature, I believe that.
---
Sounds good, but when it actually breaks below, you still feel the pain.
---
Over 30 million sounds impressive, but if this method were that easy, everyone would be rich.
---
Only looking at the daily chart and ignoring other timeframes—if a black swan event happens, you'll get blown up.
---
I really don't get the all-in approach. Stability is good, but that's just too greedy.
---
Lying flat under the moving average sounds easy, but when the time comes, you want to catch the bottom—everyone's like that.
---
Selling early and then buying back—how long do you have to wait? Isn't the cost pretty high during that period?
---
I just want to ask if this method still works now. The market has changed.
---
It's purely a game of patience, but not everyone can be that disciplined.

Really? You can win just by relying on a single moving average? I still feel more comfortable checking multiple indicators.

This daily moving average strategy is really awesome; after trying it for a while, the failure rate is indeed low.
But your execution has to be ruthless—most people fail because of their mindset.
30 million is pretty aggressive, but mechanical discipline is definitely the key.
The point about running as soon as it breaks below really resonates with me. I used to always try to catch the bottom.
You're right, don't get greedy over those 5-minute fluctuations—they can really mess up your mentality.
This methodology is simple and straightforward, which actually makes it the best at avoiding pitfalls.
In the end, making money is all about execution—just studying indicators is useless.
You have to really master the rhythm of going all-in and reducing positions, otherwise it's still easy to lose.
That last move is the most ruthless: the moment it breaks support, clear out instantly. Sounds simple, but actually doing it is the real test.
Mechanical discipline > flashy indicators—couldn't agree more.

To be honest, I can understand the logic behind this mechanism design—using rigid rules to replace human judgment in order to reduce decision-making costs. But the problem lies in incentive compatibility; with a sample size of 30 million over 8 years, survivor bias is quite strong. In a bull market, anyone can make money by following the rules, but when a bear market comes, does this system still have risk resistance? There’s a lack of historical backtesting data to support it.

Daily chart with moving averages and MACD—it sounds simple, but actually executing it is a real test of human nature.
It sounds like discipline triumphs over greed, and this method really can help you survive longer.
Is the 30 million real, or is it just internet fiction?
I’m a bit skeptical about “just run if it breaks below;” if it were really that easy, so many people wouldn’t be losing money.
Mechanized trading sounds boring, but it seems some people really make a living off it. Should I give it a try?
Not believing in stacking indicators and only trusting one line—that’s actually pretty novel.
Cutting a third of your position at a 40% gain—your mental toughness must be off the charts. I would definitely hold out for 80%.
Feels like this just simplifies trading crypto into a multiple-choice question. With fewer tricks, you actually survive longer.
