Is making money in the crypto world really based on luck? 7 'guaranteed profit logics' verified through 3 rounds of bull and bear markets that retail investors can follow to avoid pitfalls.
Do you also think that making money in the crypto world relies entirely on 'gambling'? Watching others flaunt their double returns while you chase after highs only to get trapped, or bottom-fishing and missing out, unable to even protect your principal? As an analyst who has been in the crypto market for 8 years, I have seen too many retail investors perish in 'impatience'. In fact, the crypto world has never only been about high-risk plays. These 7 'guaranteed profit paths' that I have personally verified can both reduce volatility risk and allow returns to outperform 80% of followers. 1. Long-term value holding method: the simplest and most counterintuitive 'lying win technique' Stop believing in 'short-term wealth' anymore. I started using this strategy since the bear market in 2018, holding mainstream leading coins through three rounds of halving, and directly realizing 12 times returns in the 2021 bull market. The core logic is very simple: choose coins with a real ecosystem and long-term narrative (such as underlying public chains and industry infrastructure), buy and lock for more than six months without operating. Many people fail because they 'can't resist'—seeing a 50% rise and wanting to sell, panicking and cutting losses when it drops 30%. The rule I set for myself is: unless the fundamentals of the coin collapse (for example, the team runs away, or the ecosystem goes to zero), I will never get off halfway. This method seems passive, but it is the best weapon for retail investors to resist market volatility.
Don't be deceived anymore! Stable profits in the cryptocurrency market have never been about 'earning every day'
Haven't you ever fantasized: in the cryptocurrency market, as long as you grasp the path to 'stable profits', you can make hundreds of U every day, double your money every month, or even get rich effortlessly? I've seen too many newcomers rush into the market with this obsession, euphoric when chasing highs and lows, sleepless when facing liquidation and debt, feeling on top of the world after making a small profit, only to fall into endless anxiety after losing their principal. It wasn't until I experienced three liquidations and six-figure debts, and now steadily holding eight-figure cryptocurrency assets, that I fully realized: the truth of stable profits has never been 'earning money every day', but rather the calmness of 'the light boat has passed through ten thousand mountains'.
Ten Years of Crypto Battlefield: From Losing More and More to Stable Profits, I Only Comprehended This 1 Core
Last night, a private message in the background hit countless people's pain points: 'Analyst, I've been in the crypto market for 3 years, staying up late to monitor the market and chasing trends, but why do I keep losing more as I trade? My principal is almost halved...' I didn't beat around the bush with him; I directly replied: It's not that you lack the ability to earn, but you lack the ability to keep the money you've earned. This sentence can only be understood by those who have truly stumbled in the market and paid hundreds of thousands in tuition. What you find obscure now is just that you haven't yet endured the stage of 'making money by luck and losing everything by skill.' Whether you can truly establish yourself in the crypto market has never been about how long you stare at the market every day or how many trades you make, but about how firm your desire for 'profit stability' is. Many people treat 'occasionally making a big profit' as victory, yet ignore a brutal truth: Money earned by luck will eventually be taken back by the market along with your principal if you can't control the drawdown.
Stop 'running after small gains'! The real logic of taking profits in crypto trading to make big money, 90% of people have it wrong.
Have you ever had this experience: holding onto Bitcoin or Ethereum, just to close the position in a panic after making a few points, only to turn around and watch the market soar, hitting your thigh in frustration? I've seen too many crypto traders die in the obsession of 'taking profits'—clearly picking the right direction, yet due to insufficient greed (and fearing losses), they slice big trends into small profits. Today, I dare to say: to transform from 'small gains' to 'big gains' in the crypto market, the core of profit-taking has never been 'take what you can get,' but rather let profits run wildly!
It's exploded! The more you learn about crypto trading, the more you lose? Because you haven't pierced through this layer of capital truth.
In the late night, scrolling through the backend, all the fans' soul-searching questions: 'I've memorized dozens of pages of analysis indicators, stared at the candlestick charts until my eyes hurt, why does crypto trading still drop when I buy and rise when I sell?' I've been in the crypto market for 8 years, seen too many traders stubbornly focus on the details of 'MACD golden crosses' and 'Bollinger Bands closing', yet fall into the most deadly trap of treating technical patterns as the essence, forgetting the core logic of the crypto market: all candlestick fluctuations are essentially the result of capital games. Today, I'll speak from the heart to help you break free from detail exhaustion and find the right underlying direction to make money.
90% of crypto retail investors die on 'letting profits run'? I tear apart this false proposition with 10 years of practical experience.
Have you ever had such moments of breakdown in the middle of the night? With a profit of 3000U on a BTC long position, thinking 'if I just hold on a bit longer, I can double it,' only for the market to suddenly turn, not only losing all profit but also incurring a loss of 2000U. Lying in bed tossing and turning, my mind filled with 'if only I had taken profit then'—this torment of having a cooked duck fly away is even more crushing than direct losses. After 10 years of struggling in the crypto space, I've seen too many retail investors treat 'cut losses short, let profits run' as the trading gospel, only to turn themselves into cannon fodder for the market. Today, I'll be blunt: it's not that you can't make money, but that you've been PUA'd by this flawed trading logic; it's not that you can't hold onto profits, but that you force yourself to act like a genius with institutional standards, forgetting that you're just an ordinary person.
Lost 3 accounts in 8 years, finally earned back 20 million: Making money in the crypto market has never been about luck; it's about the iron law of 'understanding losses.'
There are always people messaging me asking: 'Teacher, what is your logic for selecting targets? How do you achieve stable profits?' To be honest, my current approach is so simple that it's hard to believe, but it's these 'silly methods' that helped me crawl out of the abyss of having my position wiped out 37 times, earning what others see as a 'big number.' Have you ever had this experience: when the market moves suddenly, you get all fired up, rush in with a full position trying to catch the bottom, only to be rubbed into the ground by the trend? Don't be shy, I was even crazier back in the day, trading back and forth on daily charts, chasing highs and cutting losses, thinking I could turn it around based on 'feelings', and ended up losing my principal down to just a few bucks.
From the depths of debt in the crypto world to earning passive income by relying on 'survive + rules': 90% of people lose at the first step
Can you believe it? A cryptocurrency trader who once etched '20 times a week' into his obsession almost buried himself in a pit of 470,000 in debt because of a fantasy of becoming rich, ultimately turning things around with two very simple words: 'survive' and 'rules'. Now, the logic I've used to make consistent profits in the crypto world is something even beginners can understand, yet 90% of people are unwilling to follow it. The story begins in 2008 at university, when Jay Chou's posters filled the campus. I happened to catch a glimpse of a small advertisement in an internet café corner that read 'Cryptocurrency trading, the path to financial freedom' (don't laugh, early crypto information was buried deeper than milk tea shop coupons). The webpage I opened didn't show today's mainstream platforms, but rather the pricing interface of early niche cryptocurrencies. The numbers refreshed every 5 seconds: from 185 to 190, and a few minutes of fluctuation could earn half a month's living expenses, but back then, my monthly living expenses of 400 yuan couldn't even touch the entry threshold. The seed of 'turning around through crypto trading' was thus planted in my heart — looking back now, this seed almost grew into the weeds that dragged me down.
1. First, the core: 3 phrases determine life and death
Long and short moving averages determine direction (I often use the 4H cycle with 20 MA + 100 MA); Long-term flat / upward, short-term turning golden cross; Enter when the K line breaks recent highs, set stop loss at previous lows, exit when breaking long-term! Short selling goes against the trend: long-term down + short-term death cross + enter when breaking recent lows, stop loss at previous highs, exit when above long-term. Don't think it's too simple to doubt! A veteran around me who only trades BTC short-term has relied on these three sentences to grow from 50,000 to 800,000 in 3 years. No complex indicators, just looking at the 15M and 4H cycles every day, clear signals to enter, acknowledging losses when stop loss is triggered, never overthinking.
After the 8000U liquidation, I finally understood: contracts are not a shortcut to wealth, but a hell that tests human nature.
8000U, 15 minutes, half evaporated. This was my first lesson when I entered the contract trading track and also the most brutal 'coming-of-age ceremony' that the crypto market gives to all newcomers. Did you think contracts are a fast track to a comeback? A gambling table for overnight turnarounds? Or a deep pit where countless bones are buried? I’ll tell you from three years of bloody practical experience: it has never been a casino, but a hell that tests human nature. Those who survive are the hunters who engrave 'anti-human nature' deep into their bones. Back then, I rushed in with the obsession of 'if you fight for it, a bicycle can turn into a motorcycle,' only to be harshly taught a lesson by the market: greedy people will eventually be bitten by the market. Over the years, I've seen too many tragedies: some win a couple of trades and think they are 'the chosen ones,' going all in to chase highs, and within a week, they lose all their capital; some stubbornly hold on when they incur losses, going from 'just wait, it will rebound' to 'I've lost all my capital,' ultimately cutting their losses in emotional collapse. What they lose is not technique, but an uncontrollable hand, an irresistible greed, and an unshakeable luck — and this is precisely the most fatal weakness in contract trading.
After 2 liquidations in 7 years of trading cryptocurrencies, I turned 50U into 5000U using the 'Key Period Betting Method': I've encountered all 5 traps that 90% of retail investors will inevitably face!
Do you find yourself buying more of a certain cryptocurrency as it keeps dropping, exhausting your funds and having to cut losses, only for it to skyrocket the next day? Are you clinging to the belief of 'waiting for a 20% pullback to re-enter,' watching a bull coin soar ahead while you chase the peak and end up getting stuck at the top? I've been trading cryptocurrencies for 7 years, and I've encountered enough pitfalls to circle the exchanges three times. From the liquidation during the bear market in 2018 to missing out on the bull market in 2021, and now achieving stable profits, I've finally uncovered the harsh truths of the crypto market: retail investors losing money is never a matter of luck, but rather a result of falling into the dual traps of human nature and market dynamics! 1. I summarized 5 major loss traps from two liquidation experiences; 90% of retail investors are stepping into them.
Why do veteran traders stumble in frequent trading? In my 7 years of analysis, I have pierced through this layer of illusion.
Why do seasoned players who have been in the crypto market for years find it easier to fall into a cycle of frequent trading compared to newcomers? I have seen too many traders who have been in the game for over 3 years, with their capital curves fluctuating like a roller coaster. They clearly understand various trading systems and have memorized all investment maxims, yet they completely lose control when faced with K-lines. What lies behind this is not a technical issue, but rather the 'inner demons' they have never confronted! I have been analyzing the crypto market for 7 years and have interacted with hundreds of traders, discovering a heartbreaking pattern: newcomers, out of respect for the market, hesitate to take action; while veterans, thinking they understand, are completely hijacked by emotions due to past losses and the anxiety of surviving with small capital. Some rush to break even after a loss, fixating on every minute's fluctuations in the market, fearing they might miss any 'turnaround opportunity'; others have limited capital and panic when their position fluctuates by dozens of U — can you maintain the same mindset with a position of 100,000 U versus a position of 3,000 U when facing the same pullback? This is not being pretentious, but rather the psychological pressure dictated by the sheer volume of capital.
Why is the domestic market resolutely banning virtual currency? As an experienced analyst, I will speak frankly.
Friends who come across this article, stop! If you are still pondering how to turn your fortunes around with virtual currency or even feel that the domestic 'one-size-fits-all' approach is too harsh, this article might save your life. Don't think I'm being alarmist; after eight years in this circle, I've seen too many tragedies go from 'wanting to make quick money' to 'left with nothing.' The domestic ban on virtual currency is essentially providing you with a safety net, but unfortunately, too many people see good intentions as obstacles. Let me give you an analogy: the virtual currency trading market is not at all an 'high-risk high-reward' investment arena, but rather a black casino that operates 24/7 with the dealer controlling the game at all times. The difference is that a legitimate casino has rules to fall back on, while the dealer here can change the rules at will, cheat, or even directly take your chips.
Buying more as prices drop leads to liquidation? Stop-loss orders getting triggered? The survival rules of the crypto market, explained through 5 years of blood and tears experience.
After 5 years of struggling in the crypto market, I have seen too many people fall into the same pit: either buying more as prices drop, turning ETH into a 'family heirloom', and ultimately getting trapped in a relentless bear market; or strictly adhering to stop-loss rules, yet getting repeatedly stopped out in a volatile market, earning less than they lose, and ultimately breaking their mindset. Have you also struggled with whether to 'buy more as prices drop' or 'cut losses in time' to save yourself? Today, I will lay it all bare: this isn't about right or wrong, but rather a 'scenario matching question' in the crypto market; if you use it correctly, you profit, but if you use it incorrectly, you get punished!
Are you numb from losing in crypto trading? If you're unwilling to accept it, stop blindly enduring! Either leave the market or follow this logic to turn things around.
After 3 years and 5 years of engaging in crypto trading, your account balance keeps decreasing. Have you been conditioned by the market to become a 'stable loser'? Staring at the K-line until late at night, the pain of liquidation plays out repeatedly. You want to withdraw but can't help but think, 'Maybe if I hold on a little longer, I’ll make a profit'? Wake up! I've seen too many 'obsessives' in the crypto circle wasting their youth on meaningless losses, yet never considering: what exactly are you committed to, the trading itself, or the fantasy of 'making money the easy way'? Let me tell you a harsh truth: crypto trading has never been a 'cash machine for lazy people.' Many rush into the market simply because they are tired of the hard work of a job and want to earn money with just a click of the mouse – this is not love, it's avoidance. If you had put the energy spent staying up late watching the charts and reviewing trades into your main job or a reliable side business, you would have already saved your first pot of gold. Working guarantees profit, but crypto trading requires an initial capital investment, and you might end up losing everything, making it absurdly unworthy in terms of cost-effectiveness.
Stop yearning for 'ten times return on investment'! Turning a few thousand U around is not based on luck.
Recently, the backend has been bombarded with questions: "Teacher, I only have 5000U, can I make ten times that with your trading?" Every time I see such a question, I want to directly expose a truth in the crypto market: small funds that hold the mindset of 'getting rich overnight' 90% of the time fail due to 'impatience'. Let me first state my core viewpoint: I never make promises of 'ten times return on investment', nor do I have any speculative secrets. What I can teach everyone is the survival logic of how small funds can 'survive' and then 'slowly grow'. In the past few years, those investors I have guided from a few thousand U to six figures have not achieved success through dramatic turnarounds; they all relied on 'perseverance' and 'stability', gradually rolling a small account into a secure account that can withstand market fluctuations.
When the message popped in at two in the morning, I had just finished a 3-hour review.
Fan A Zhe's message carried obvious panic: “The stable assets in hand are down to 5000, I can’t hold on through this wave of volatility.” I didn’t provide flashy comfort, just typed a line: “Immediately stop all recovery operations, first engrave the word ‘stability’ into the trading.” Having been in the crypto market for six years, I have never relied on gimmicks to attract attention as a ‘traffic blogger’, nor do I disdain to engage in harvesting retail investors. I have seen too many people fall into the same fatal trap: treating various indicators as ‘lifelines’, overly amplifying positions to bet on niche coins, only to have a big bearish candle wipe out years of accumulation.
ETH sees the trend correctly but is washed out by risk control? A 5-year practical analyst dissects the logic of capital harvesting!
90% of crypto traders have fallen into these traps: clearly judging the upward direction of ETH, just as the risk control position is set, the market sweeps you out, and when you look back, the price spikes straight up, leaving you empty-handed. This is not bad luck; it is because you haven't seen through the market's liquidity harvesting tactics! As a practical trader who has been deeply involved in crypto trading for 5 years, today I will use my personal verification method to help you completely escape this trap. Many people mistakenly believe that risk control triggers are 'accidents'; in fact, there are traces to every washout. Before the market capital starts a major trend, it never rises directly; instead, it will deliberately create 'traps': either testing previous lows and key support levels before a reversal, creating false breakouts of double bottoms and the illusion of support breaks, accurately triggering retail investors' risk control positions (mostly set at secondary level lows), harvesting liquidity before proceeding with the trend; or in the middle of a secondary trend, using the resonance effect of a major level pullback to take away profits from greedy holders who did not take profit at the higher level pressure points.
Senior Cryptocurrency Analyst: Cryptocurrency is not the future; it is the ultimate form of the scythe!
Do you think trading cryptocurrencies is a shortcut to class jumping? Wake up! I have seen too many ordinary people rushing in with their hard-earned money, only to end up with nothing left of their principal; I have also seen operators use a few lines of code and two servers to rake in 20 million USD over two years, all while not finding a single legal loophole. As an analyst who has been deeply involved in the cryptocurrency market for 8 years, today I will tear apart the industry's darkest cover, revealing those cryptocurrencies that drive you crazy, which have existed since their inception solely to harvest you. First, let me highlight my core viewpoint: Cryptocurrency has never been the 'future of currency'; rather, it is a tool that drives the cost of traditional harvesting methods to the extreme. It has no physical backing, no regulatory constraints, and even exchanges do not require a physical location, making it a 'zero-cost scythe.' In this article, I won't teach you how to trade cryptocurrencies, nor will I teach you how to issue coins; instead, I will thoroughly dissect the complete harvesting logic of the operators. I recommend directly forwarding this to friends who are trading cryptocurrencies and have been brainwashed by 'financial freedom' to help bring them back to reality.
Stop believing in 'overnight flips'! I used three 'counterintuitive' dumb methods to grow from 8000U to six figures, with a contract win rate of 85%
Every day in the crypto world, someone shouts 'doubling secrets' and 'get-rich strategies', but those who can truly make stable profits are never the gamblers chasing trends. With five years of practical experience, I can tell you: the 'dumbest' methods are actually the most reliable. I started with 8000U and rolled my way to six figures with a fixed strategy; I've never blown up my contracts, and my profit-taking rate has consistently stayed above 85%. The core is just three things: focus on the right direction, manage your position well, and seize the reversal accurately. 1. Instead of watching the K-line, focus on 'smart money', a more reliable directional judgment method than technical indicators. Every day when the market opens, my first thing is never to anxiously watch the K-line red and green, but to track the core address fund movements of mainstream currencies: Who is quietly accumulating? Who is offloading large amounts? Which addresses have been 'playing dead' with their holdings?
