The biggest fear in trading is flashy tactics; in fact, those seemingly simple strategies often last the longest. There is a trader who relies on a minimalist approach, turning losses into an eight-figure asset. The core competitive advantage is strict discipline execution.



This method appears simple but is actually the result of years of market experience. First, in selecting cryptocurrencies, only focus on daily MACD golden cross signals, especially those forming above the zero line. Such signals tend to have more stable win rates. Mainstream coins like often present these opportunities.

The entry logic is straightforward: when the price breaks above the moving average with accompanying volume, go all-in immediately. But the selling strategy is more nuanced—reduce one-third of the position when gains reach 40%, then another one-third at 80%, and if the price falls below the daily moving average, clear the remaining position. This phased approach locks in profits while protecting the principal.

The most testing part of human nature comes next. If the price drops below the daily moving average the next day, regardless of the reason, you must immediately close the position—even if such cases are rare. Many traders fail at this step, ultimately losing everything. After clearing the position, don’t just leave; wait for the price to rise back above the daily moving average before re-entering, which can still be profitable.

Repeat these four steps continuously. You don’t need to stare at the screen until dizzy or rely on gambling on news. As long as you treat discipline as the first rule of trading, consistently riding the trend is actually that simple.

ngl the "discipline above all else" framing here is doing some heavy lifting... like technically speaking, the backtesting validation on this macd crossover strategy is insufficiently documented. where's the actual proof this holds across different market regimes? smh people always gloss over the edge cases when building their success narrative.

Discipline is easy to talk about but hard to practice. Most people fail at the step of cutting losses.

nah the real marathon isn't about picking winners, it's about staying in the race. discipline beats everything else, honestly... every time i see someone blow up it's because they abandoned the system for one trade

Nobody really listens to discipline. Everyone is thinking about getting rich overnight, but in the end, they still get cut off.

Basically, it's about execution. I've seen too many people who know the rules but can't control their impulses.

There's nothing wrong with that, but execution is the hardest part. I've seen too many people who understand this logic but fail due to discipline.

Discipline is easy to talk about but hard to do; those who can truly stick to it become major players.

Discipline is easy to talk about, but few can stick to it at critical moments. This is the dividing line between making money and getting liquidated.
