📈📉 Blew $5,400 on futures trying to pick tops/bottoms. Don't repeat my mistake. For retail traders, fighting the trend is financial suicide. We can't move markets; institutions do. Our edge is riding their momentum, not opposing it.
Identifying trends is simple. Uptrend: clear Higher Highs/Higher Lows, price above an upward-sloping 50 EMA. Downtrend: Lower Highs/Lower Lows, price below a downward-sloping 50 EMA. Keep it simple.
My golden rule: ONLY long in an uptrend, ONLY short in a downtrend. No exceptions. If BTC broke $68,000, pulled back to $67,500 (HH/HL) and the 50 EMA is climbing, that's your long. Don't short at $69,000 because it "looks high" if the trend is still robustly up. Riding the wave saves your capital.
