If you have less than 10,000 USDT to invest, forget all the fancy stuff—here’s a simple, no-frills strategy that’s built to survive: avoid getting liquidated and grow your capital steadily.

Step one: Choose coins based on just one signal—the daily MACD golden cross. Ignore everything else; no matter how persuasive the hype, it’s no substitute for an indicator. Ideally, look for a golden cross above the zero line, as it tends to be more reliable.

Step two: Base your trades on just one line—the 20-day moving average. Hold while the price is above it; exit when it falls below. Don’t hesitate: a break below the line means you’re out. That’s a rule, not a suggestion.

Step three: Use price and volume to time your entries and exits. Only consider taking a larger position when the price moves above the moving average and breaks out on increased volume. Take some profits at a 40% gain, and some more at 80%. If the price breaks below the moving average, close out the rest.

Step four: There’s just one stop-loss rule: if the closing price falls below the moving average, exit unconditionally the next day. One lucky gamble can wipe out all your previous gains. It’s okay if you miss the move—just buy back in once the price climbs above the moving average again.

This strategy isn’t clever; it’s even a little clumsy. But that’s exactly why it’s easy for retail traders to follow—and less likely to get them wiped out.

Wait for the signal, manage your position, and keep your risk-reward ratio in check. That’s how you can capture a whole move. Don’t be the one who only regrets missing out after the fact.

There are always opportunities in the market, but without discipline, you won’t catch them—no matter how many there are.

I’ve already scouted the route and hit the potholes. If you want to take each step steadily, come talk to me.
