Many people blindly follow the trend at the opening, often resulting in chasing highs and getting trapped. Instead of doing that, it's better to look at the two-week gain and loss list—those coins with suddenly increased trading volume are worth paying attention to. Projects without funds moving are less promising, no matter how good they sound, so put them aside first. The market never appears out of nowhere; there is always capital brewing behind the scenes.
The key is how to judge the direction of the trend. Many people obsess over the daily chart, tortured by oscillations back and forth, which destroys their mindset. In fact, they should focus on the monthly chart. The real trend signals are hidden in the monthly chart. When the MACD on the monthly chart shows a golden cross, it’s like igniting an engine—the market begins to accelerate. Following up at this point is the right move, riding the trend rather than gambling.
The entry point also matters. After confirming the trend, the best time to enter is when the price pulls back to the 60-day moving average and trading volume expands simultaneously. This is the most comfortable entry point—support levels are clear, costs are transparent, and psychological defenses are naturally stable.
But whether you can ultimately make money depends not on the entry but on the exit. Stop-loss must be decisive: if the price falls below the 60-day moving average, sell immediately—no bargaining, no excuses. Whatever profit you made earlier must be given back. Take profit with rhythm: when floating gains reach 30%, cash out half to lock in profits; when it reaches 50%, reduce half of the position. The remaining position is entirely run with profits, making the mindset much more relaxed.
This method may sound rigid, but that’s the difference—systematic ongoing gains versus relying on intuition, which ultimately just pays back money. Every rule behind it is based on real lessons learned from past pitfalls. The market changes, but the logic remains the same: trend, position, discipline. Only trade what you understand, and the market won’t hit you hard.

The monthly golden cross pattern I’ve been using for a while now, but it’s a bit tough to endure. Many people give up after just two weeks.
Speaking of which, those who truly make money are quietly disciplined, while those who shout signals every day tend to switch strategies repeatedly.
Once the 60-day moving average breaks, they run. It sounds simple, but it takes a lot of resolve to actually do it.

It's the same old story again—60-day moving average, monthly chart, stop-loss and take-profit. It all sounds right, but I just can't make money.
The real issue is execution. Most people understand the rules, but once they get into real trading, they fail.
Can you really clear your positions immediately when the price drops below the 60-day moving average? I think most people are just hoping for a rebound and waiting.

The 60-day moving average has been broken through again. Looks like I have to wait for the monthly moving average golden cross before I dare to act...

Honestly, the stop-loss part really hits the sore spot. Many people lose everything because they can't bear to let go at that moment.

If the 60-day moving average breaks, you have to run. If you can't do this, everything else is pointless.
