#数字资产生态回暖 Live in the crypto world with the right mindset, not luck

When I first started, I was really reckless: staying up all night watching the charts, wanting to buy the dip on everything, making at least eight trades a day, getting liquidated, losing sleep, my mind a mess. I didn’t hold back on any of the mistakes.

The turning point was simple—I changed my approach from gambling to working. Discipline, method, and boundaries.

Below are a few rules I’ve developed through real losses and gains. Beginners must remember them.

**1️⃣ 9 PM is the best time to watch the charts**

During the day, information bombards you, with all kinds of news mixed together, and prices are driven crazy by emotions. Now I only look for opportunities after 9 PM, when most news has been digested, candlesticks are more genuine, and there are fewer tricks.

**2️⃣ Take profits first, don’t try to double down**

When I get excited, I want to add to my position—that’s a dead end. My approach is: if I make 1000U, I take 300U out immediately and leave the rest to play. Too many people make profits but don’t withdraw, and a quick correction wipes it all out.

**3️⃣ Follow indicators, not feelings**

"Feeling right" is the fastest way to lose money. Before placing an order, I always check these three:

MACD golden/death cross
RSI overbought/oversold
Bollinger Bands squeezing and breaking out

At least two of these signals should align before I act.

**4️⃣ Adjust stop-loss levels upward as profits grow**

When the market is favorable, don’t wait around—push your stop-loss up. Buy at 1000, and if it rises to 1100, move your stop-loss to 1050. If you can’t watch the charts constantly, set a hard stop-loss (around 3%) to prevent a sudden crash from wiping you out.

**5️⃣ Have a plan for withdrawals; don’t risk your entire capital on a single double**

The numbers in your account look big, but if you can’t withdraw them, they’re not real money. I always withdraw 30%-50% of my profits each round, and keep playing with the rest.

**6️⃣ Use patterns and strategies when reading candlesticks**

For short-term trades, focus on the 1-hour chart. Wait for two consecutive bullish volume candles before going long. During sideways markets, switch to the 4-hour chart, and wait for the price to return to support levels before looking for low-risk entries. It’s not about random clicking; it’s about waiting until you recognize the pattern before acting.
