I've noticed an interesting phenomenon: most people lose money not because of poor judgment, but because they simply don't have a trading system. I've summarized seven key points—if you execute them well, your account will naturally grow.



First, let's talk about capital management. Got 100,000 in principal? Split it into five parts. Use 20,000 each time, with a stop-loss set at 10%. This way, even if you hit three consecutive losses, you only lose 6% of your principal and still have a chance to bounce back. Going all-in at once? That's gambler's thinking.

The trend is the most common trap. Most rebounds during a downtrend are bull traps. What you should really do is buy the dip during an uptrend—while others panic sell, you build your position at a lower price. Trying to catch the bottom against the trend? That's just gambling with your hard-earned money.

Another common mistake: chasing coins that have just surged. It jumps 30% today, you rush in, and tomorrow it moves sideways or drifts down—the upside was already priced in, and you end up holding the bag.

MACD is very useful when used correctly: a golden cross breaking above the zero line is a relatively safe entry signal; a death cross above the zero line means it's time to reduce your position—don't cling to your paper profits.

Position management should go against human nature: add to your position when you're making profits to let your gains compound, and never average down when losing. Many people do the opposite, adding more as they lose, and end up trapped.

The relationship between volume and price reveals the intentions of big players. Breakouts with high volume at low prices? Funds are accumulating, you can follow. High volume at high prices with stagnant price action? That's distribution—time to get out. Volume tells the truth more than price does.

Last point: review your trades every day. After the close, check if your trading logic was correct, whether your trend judgment was off, and if your strategy needs adjustment. Stick to systematic execution to achieve stable returns.

To sum up: build your framework + execute strictly = steady account growth. It's not that you're slow to improve—it's that you haven't found the right path.

The underlying logic of this trading framework is that only by executing well can you survive and earn steadily over time. Don't wait until reckless trades wipe you out to realize that a system is a thousand times more important than your gut feeling.

That's right, what's missing is a framework. I used to operate randomly before, and now I realize that having a system can really be a lifesaver.

It should be pointed out that this so-called "trading system" is essentially just a systematic packaging of the gambler’s fallacy. Based on on-chain data analysis, I’ve identified three obvious logical flaws: first, the concept of dividing funds ignores market correlations; second, the MACD zero-axis argument was debunked by the community back in 2017; and finally, the so-called “anti-human nature” position-adding method actually reflects the inescapable essence of human nature... But I must admit, this kind of "framework as faith" evangelism does, in a certain sense, touch upon the value consensus that Satoshi Nakamoto dreamed of—discipline prevailing over emotion. It’s laughable, the same rhetoric again. What retail investors love to hear most is, “You can make money as long as you have a system”... In reality, what you lack isn’t a system, it’s luck. Let me offer you a word of advice: MACD isn’t a password, and backtesting won’t save you. Unless... I’m tired of seeing this kind of argument being recycled and resold.

What you said is absolutely right, but it's hard to put into practice. After seeing so many systems, only a few can actually stick with it.

That's absolutely right. Most people have never even thought about what a system is. I used to chase rallies and sell on dips too. Looking back now, it was really foolish.
