Many people ask me why I went from losing money to stable profits. There’s no real secret—just changing the amateur mindset of trading cryptocurrencies. During those early days: staying up late watching charts, chasing gains and selling losses, experiencing margin calls, insomnia, and anxiety in rotation. Later, I simply treated it as a serious job, and surprisingly, I became more and more stable in earning.

Here are some lessons from years of real trading experience—newcomers, remember to save this:

**Timing Matters in Trading**
The market noise is high during the day, with mixed news and wild fluctuations, making the trend unpredictable. My habit is to only trade after 9 PM—by then, most news has been digested, the candlestick charts look cleaner, and the direction is clearer.

**Never Be Greedy When Making Money**
If you earn 1000U, first withdraw 300U to secure your gains. Only then continue to gamble with the remaining. I’ve seen too many people “tripling their money, then aiming for five times,” only to be wiped out by a sudden correction, losing all previous profits. There’s no need to repeat this mistake.

**Use Indicators, Not Feelings**
Before entering a trade, set up a charting tool. Look for MACD (golden/death cross), RSI (overbought/oversold), Bollinger Bands (squeeze breakout). Only enter when at least two indicators agree. Trading based on feelings often results in nine losses out of ten.

**Adjust Stop-Loss Flexibly**
If you’re watching the market, raise your stop-loss as the price rises—for example, buy at 1000U, if it goes to 1100U, set the stop-loss at 1050U. When not watching, set a hard stop-loss at 3% to prevent a sudden crash.

**Account Balance Is Not Real Money**
Every time you make a profit, plan to withdraw some. The money in your account isn’t real until it hits your bank. Having a high account balance on the platform is meaningless. I suggest withdrawing 30%-50% in batches after making profits—don’t keep everything hoping to tenfold your money.

**Tips for K-Line Trading**
For short-term trades, focus on the 1-hour chart. Two consecutive bullish candles can be a signal to go long. When the market consolidates, switch to the 4-hour chart to find support levels. Enter near support to increase your success rate.

**Common Pitfalls That Lead to Crashes**
Heavy leverage, unfamiliar altcoins, more than three trades a day, borrowing money to trade—if you fall into any of these, the risk of blowing up your account is terrifyingly high. This is not alarmist; I’ve seen too many cases.

In short, trading cryptocurrencies is never a game of impulsive quick riches but a long-term strategy execution. Keep your emotions stable, don’t reckless, don’t be swayed by price swings. Stick to the rules, and you’ll naturally seize opportunities in the crypto world. This understanding comes from my experience of margin calls and sleepless nights.
