Straight Talk: Buy Point – Sell Point Is Your Guardian Charm in Crypto

In the crypto community, I meet many brothers who trade contracts with unwavering faith: “As long as you react half a beat faster than the market, you win.” But what is the reality? The more you stare at the chart and trade, the more your account resembles a roller coaster, and your psychology becomes as shattered as tofu. Once, a younger brother asked me: “Brother, where did I go wrong?” I answered with a very down-to-earth sentence: “Only buy when there’s a buy point, only sell when there’s a sell point.” It sounds simple, but truly embedding this into your bones, in this market, less than one in a hundred can do it.

  1. When Emotions Take Over, Money Starts to Leave The most terrifying thing in crypto is not volatility, but when emotions drive instead of reason. Price just went up → FOMO, fear of missing the train, rushing in without signals. Price just dropped → Panic, cutting losses at all costs. That’s no longer trading, but betting with emotions. I’ve seen many people: A slight increase makes them think they are a genius. A slight decrease makes them think the market is collapsing. The result? Not because the market is too cruel, but because emotions destroy the entire trading system: from judgment, capital management to psychological discipline. Once emotions take over, the account will eventually be eroded.
  2. Entry and Exit Points Must Be Decided by You In crypto, there is no “ultimate” strategy. Some trade breakouts. Some wait for support rebounds. Some only trade strong coins. Some specialize in sideways trading, earning from spreads. The method isn’t about high or low, only whether it suits you or not. You need to ask yourself: How much drawdown can you tolerate? Do you have enough patience to hold the position? Can you sleep well with open trades? These questions, no one can answer for you. I always: Set stop-loss behind technical structures. Move stop-loss according to trends when in profit. Follow the rules I’ve written, no arguing with the market. Only with clear rules can your psychology stay stable.
  3. Once the Rules Are Set, the Market Becomes a Mechanical Execution Machine Try to write clearly for yourself: Only buy when: breaking old highs + volume increases. Must sell when: breaking important support. No signal → do not enter. At that point, trading is no longer emotional, but mechanical action. Price rising → no excitement. Price falling → no panic. Loss → accept it because it was part of the plan. Profit → maintain discipline, avoid greed. The current market is more volatile than a roller coaster. Just one candle can wipe out a series of accounts trading on emotion. But with systematic trading: Even if stop-loss is hit 5–10 times, just catching one big wave can make enough profit to cover losses and more. That is the power of rule-based trading. Conclusion Crypto is full of opportunities; what’s rare is people who are persistent enough to survive. Investing is not a race to click faster, but a game of rhythm and discipline. When you truly embed the principle in your mind: “Only buy at buy points – Only sell at sell points” you are no longer a “vegetable” waiting to be cut, but start becoming a hunter. Remember: Your rules are your fortress to protect your account.
