#大户持仓变化 Having rooted myself in the crypto world for eight years, from initial anxiety over liquidation and staying up all night watching the charts, to now steady profits and an account exceeding eight figures, my core insight is: only by staying alive can you make money.

Sharing some practical tips for friends still mining in the market. This is not about signal calling, but the survival rules summarized from eight years of trial and error.

**The first step to making money: Take profits when the time is right**

For every additional 1,000U in your account, I withdraw 400U to my bank card, and continue to grow the remaining funds. Real profits stay in the account; actual cash is in the bank. Many people fall into the trap of greed with "just a little more," and in the end, lose their principal.

**Let the data speak, don’t rely on feelings to place orders**

Indicators are your teachers. MACD, RSI, Bollinger Bands—master these three, and you’ll solve about 80% of the problems. For short-term trading, look at the 1-hour chart; for mid-term, the 4-hour chart. Before trading, set your rules: only enter when at least two indicators align. For example, when going long on $ETH, wait for two consecutive 1-hour candles to break above the middle Bollinger Band and for MACD to cross upward (golden cross), then act.

**Stop-loss is your ticket to survival**

Stop-loss is never a sign of cowardice. If you have time to monitor, dynamically move your stop-loss to protect profits; if not, set a hard stop-loss (e.g., -3%). This way, even in extreme market conditions, you won’t be wiped out. The bottom line for professional traders is: never let a single trade knock you out.

**The magic of fixed profit-taking**

Every Friday, take out 30% of your profits without fail, regardless of whether that week was profitable or not. Stick to this for three months, and you’ll find your account curve stabilizes, your mindset becomes calmer, and you’ll break free from the vicious cycle of zeroing out and starting over.

**Red lines you must not cross**

Leverage should stay within 10x; for beginners, 3 to 5x is enough. Limit yourself to a maximum of 3 trades per day; more than that means your emotions are controlling you. Avoid high-volatility, low-value coins like Dogecoin or meme coins—they are purely tools for manipulation. Borrowing money to trade? Don’t even think about it.

Treat this as a profession: focus seriously when watching the charts, rest when it’s time to sleep. Don’t stay up late or chase after quick gains. What you want is long-term, stable compound growth, not momentary thrills.

The market is moving again—stop following the herd blindly. If you truly want to turn things around steadily, start with these fundamentals.
