Using half a year to save up the down payment for a house, there's no secret—it's not good luck, nor is it blind luck. It's about finding a trading logic that can be executed and sustained to make money.

Many people ask me, why can I stay relatively stable in the crypto market? Actually, it's like this: trading coins may seem to rely on luck, but it's really about methods and discipline. If you also want to break out through trading, these 10 rules must be ingrained in your mind.

**1. Continuous decline of strong coins is a real opportunity**

If a coin drops from a high level and keeps falling for 9 days, don't be afraid—it's actually the best entry point at the bottom. Most people can't hold on until the 9th day and end up cutting losses, so the opportunity to make money always belongs to those who can endure.

**2. Reduce positions after two consecutive days of rise**

Don't fight against the market. When the upward trend is good, take some profits to secure gains. This isn't greed; it's the basic skill to survive longer.

**3. When a surge exceeds 7% in one day, there are usually moves the next day**

Don't rush in when you see this kind of trend. Give yourself two minutes to get a sense of the rhythm, then decide whether to enter.

**4. Never chase after the leading coin at a high**

Wait until the correction is confirmed to be over before entering, so you won't be repeatedly cut.

**5. No signals after three days of sideways movement? Wait another three days**

If it still hasn't broken through, decisively switch positions. Time cost is also a cost—don't waste your life on one position.

**6. If you can't get back to the cost price the next day, cut losses immediately**

The market won't wait for you. Dragging on is the biggest trap for retail investors.

**7. There is a pattern in the top gainers: three consecutive rises lead to five, and five lead to seven**

Two days of continuous rise is a signal; on the third day, you can accumulate at a low point. By the fifth day, it's usually a point to distribute. This rhythm is very stable.

**8. Volume and price must work together as a foundation**

A volume breakout at a low level is an opportunity to buy; high volume without further upward movement indicates funds are withdrawing. If you don't understand these, don't trade.

**9. Only trade trend coins, avoid weak coins**

Use the 3-day moving average for short-term bullishness, the 30-day for medium-term rhythm, the 80-day to gauge the strength of the main upward wave, and the 120-day to confirm a major bottom. Follow this framework, and your win rate will naturally be higher.

**10. Small capital can still turn around**

The amount of money isn't the key factor. The crucial points are: the strategy must be correct, the mindset stable, execution ruthless, and when opportunities come, dare to act.

I've maintained a win rate of over 90% for 8 years, and it all boils down to one core principle: no position without a clear pattern, see clearly before opening a position, and the rest is persistence.

Trading in the crypto market isn't about overexertion; it's about compound interest, discipline, and a clear mind. The same candlestick chart can lead to completely different results for different people—what makes the difference is mindset and execution.

I hope this set of ideas can help you avoid some pitfalls and seize your own opportunities in the next wave of the market. The market will always come, but your capital and patience are limited. Using systematic thinking to trade is far more reliable than relying on luck.
