People often ask, with so many cryptocurrencies out there, how do I choose? When should I enter, and when should I exit?
Honestly, I don’t have any secret weapons, nor do I aim for pinpoint accuracy. I follow four simple words: Trend, Discipline.
This approach won’t make you rich overnight, but it can help you avoid many pitfalls. That’s my logic—
Every time I analyze the market, the first step isn’t to focus on technical indicators, but to find "coins with warmth."
I scan the recent one or two weeks’ top gainers, paying special attention to those just starting to move, with increased volatility and significantly higher trading volume. Where funds are flowing in, there’s a story; coins that are stagnant, no matter how cheap, I won’t touch.
As for sense of direction, the intraday ups and downs generally don’t affect me much. What truly changes your fate is the trend on the monthly chart.
When the monthly MACD shows a bullish crossover, I add it to my key watchlist. This step is clear: the big ship has already set sail, now it’s about finding the right moment to board.
Once the main direction is confirmed, I switch to daily charts for observation. At this point, the 60-day moving average becomes my most important line.
If the price pulls back to this level, stabilizes, and volume cooperates, I’ll seriously consider building a position. Buying here isn’t cheap, but there’s clear support below, giving me confidence.
Rules must be two-way. If the 60-day line is effectively broken, I exit. No dragging things out, no storytelling. Making money or not is a minor matter; the most important thing is protecting the principal, and the next opportunity will come naturally.
Regarding profit-taking, I never get greedy. When unrealized gains reach a certain level, I reduce my position in stages: first lock in some profits, and hold the rest as "trial positions." This approach feels more secure and reduces fear of retracement.
Some may say this process is too conservative or mechanical. But after being in this circle for a long time, I understand a truth:
Making money depends on probability; surviving depends on a system.
Those rules that can be坚持执行 (persistently follow) are far more valuable than one or two sudden surges. The market moves quickly now, and what you need isn’t precise prediction of every step, but to follow the right direction, with the right rhythm, and do the right things.

honestly the 60 day MA thing is just... if you look at the data, it's literally lag city. sustainable returns aren't about following lines that already moved, they're about calculating risk-adjusted entry points before the volume spike even registers. but sure, mechanical discipline beats degen vibes i guess

To be honest, this set of things is well explained, but executing it is really a torment.

Breaking the 60-day moving average line and then running away, it sounds simple but it's hard to do, brother.

Well said, discipline really is more valuable than any technical indicator.
But on the other hand, if the 60-day moving average breaks, just run away. Sometimes you might miss the rebound opportunity. How to find the right balance?
I also use the method of reducing positions in batches, and it definitely eases psychological pressure.
Making money depends on probability, surviving depends on the system. This hits home—how many people have died because of greed?
Basically, it's about removing emotions from trading.

Systematic trading is the real winner, no hype, no blackening.

Sounds good, but the key is to stick to the principal.
---
I also use the 60-day moving average strategy; it's indeed reliable, but sometimes I just can't wait that long.
---
Following the trend and maintaining discipline sounds simple, but how many mental preparations does it take to actually do it?
---
Only buy after a monthly golden cross; this pace is a bit hopeless, but staying alive is more important than anything.
---
Batch reducing positions is brilliant; no need to worry about the top.
---
Conservative? Come on, that's called professionalism, right? Those who get rich overnight have long stopped playing.

Breaking the 60-day moving average directly cuts losses; this mindset is really steady
---
After all these years listening, this is still the least complicated and most useful approach
---
I just like this kind of no-nonsense attitude, less prediction emperor vibe
---
Surviving depends on the system; this really hits the heart
---
Only buy after the monthly moving average shows a golden cross; indeed, I missed out on many coins that surged quickly
---
I've always struggled with this step of reducing positions in batches, always thinking maybe I should wait a bit longer
---
Coins with warmth vs. dead water coins, this dimension is quite fresh
---
The problem is that following the trend is easy, but maintaining discipline is too difficult
---
It looks very conservative, but thinking the other way around, among those making money, this approach has the highest execution rate
---
Can such a simple thing as the 60-day moving average really outperform 80% of analysts?
