A question that has always been worth pondering: why do accounts tend to lose even faster the more deeply one studies K-line charts and the more frequently one tracks industry trends?

Having immersed myself in the crypto space for years, I’ve seen countless traders fall into the same vicious cycle—mastering all technical indicators, staying up late every night watching the charts, taking detailed notes—only to find that their returns are far below expectations. The biggest contrast lies here: overtrading and high-frequency operations often become the accelerators of losses.

The opposite strategy is exactly the opposite. From starting capital to current growth, the truly effective approach is not complicated—simplify market information from complexity to clarity, find a core pattern that can be repeatedly executed, and stick to it.

**Practical Data Comparison**

The growth trajectory of a trading career can be viewed as follows: initially, it takes 3 years to grow from startup capital to the first million; mid-term, 1 year to expand from 3 million to 8 million; in the last 5 months, the capital scale nearly quadrupled. This acceleration has a clear pattern—trading frequency gradually decreases, but the success rate of individual decisions increases.

The underlying logic is straightforward: the speed of making money in the market is almost inversely proportional to how often you act. Less action, more profit—this sounds counterintuitive, but the data speaks for itself.

**Core Methodology: Simplify to the Extreme**

Someone once asked if I had an exclusive indicator or secret, and the answer is no. The core of the entire methodology revolves around one pattern—I call it the "N-shape" structure.

Specifically, it looks like this: the price completes an upward wave, then enters a slow correction phase, but this correction must not break through a key support level. After that, it breaks through the previous high again. Connecting these three actions forms a relatively certain trading opportunity.

It sounds simple, but the execution is actually quite difficult. Most people’s problem isn’t not understanding this pattern, but trying to add all kinds of complex condition judgments during execution, which results in missing the purest signals.

**Four Iron Rules of Execution**

The principles of trading operations can be summarized into four points:

1. Only enter the market when the N-shape pattern is complete. No matter how hot the market sentiment is or how many people are calling for buys in the group, if the pattern doesn’t match, stay on the sidelines.

2. Once the pattern is broken, even if there’s only a small loss, cut losses immediately. The biggest challenge here is human nature—people always want to gamble on a rebound.

3. Firmly avoid adding positions, holding on stubbornly, or using leverage. These three are high-risk operations that can blow up an account. Avoiding them can yield returns far beyond expectations.

4. Strictly control stop-loss levels within 2%. This ratio is based on risk-reward considerations—multiple small stop-losses are far better than one large, fatal loss.

**Less is More**

The essence of competition in the crypto market is a contest of information and sentiment. The more information and the more frequent the reception, the easier it is to be confused by short-term fluctuations. True stable profits come from restraint—restraining the impulse to trade frequently, restraining the instinct to buy high and sell low, restraining the illusion that a certain news can change the trend.

When operations are gradually simplified to just observing patterns, strictly following discipline, and sticking to plans, one finds the most stable profit logic in the market. This process is like tuning out the noise in the crypto market to gradually hear the voices that truly matter.
