From debt to assets worth tens of millions, my turnaround in the crypto world relies solely on a simple method



There are no complicated techniques, nor is it luck; it’s this straightforward trading system that repeatedly saved me from danger and ultimately pulled me out of the loss swamp. Many people initially dismiss it as too simple, but those who stick with it truly earn real money.

The key is four steps, each one a hard-earned lesson from my struggles and experiences.

**Step 1: MACD Golden Cross Sets the Direction, Win at the Starting Point**

Open the daily chart, identify coins where the MACD shows a golden cross above the zero line. These targets are usually in a strong trend, with ample upward momentum and higher success rates. Many rush to enter the market, but choosing the right direction at this step already cuts the risk in half.

**Step 2: The Daily Moving Average is the Life and Death Line, Hold the Bottom Line**

On the daily chart, as long as the price stays above the moving average, hold on. If it effectively breaks below, exit immediately—no sentimentality. This rule has saved me countless times, helping me avoid deadly large retracements amid the intense volatility of the crypto market.

**Step 3: Volume Breakout is the True Signal**

When the price reclaims the daily moving average and trading volume significantly increases—this indicates funds are flowing in collectively, making it the most reliable signal. Don’t hesitate at this point; follow decisively to capture the main upward phase of the trend accurately.

**Step 4: Take Profits in Batches, Greed is the Worst Enemy**

Sell one-third when gains reach 40%, another third at 80%, and if the remaining position falls below the moving average, close all. Don’t gamble on extreme market movements; turn floating profits into real gains. This is the mark of a mature trader.

**Discipline is the Only Competitive Edge**

It sounds simple, but it’s the hardest to do. The core of this system is using discipline to control emotions—no sudden plan changes, no being led astray by market noise. My turnaround has never relied on luck, but on strictly following rules every day. Opportunities in the crypto market wait for no one. Daydreaming repeatedly is less effective than practical execution. Follow the system steadily, and good luck will naturally favor those who are prepared.

It sounds good, but the key is still to cut losses, otherwise even the best system is useless. --- MACD golden cross is indeed reliable, but I'm just worried about being soft when executing. --- I've tried the moving average method, but it's really about maintaining the right mindset; during pullbacks, I really want to give up. --- Batch profit-taking really hit home for me. I used to want to hold until the last bite, but ended up spitting back most of it. --- It sounds simple, but sticking to the rules every day is probably hell mode. --- Making millions and having strong execution are both difficult; I don't know which is harder. --- That's how the crypto world is—you either have strong discipline or you're just a leek (retail investor). --- I've heard the four-step method a hundred times, but I haven't seen anyone truly make a profit. --- The volume breakout part is a bit forced, what about a false breakout? --- Practicing once is not as good as fantasizing a hundred times; I love this saying.

Honestly, this approach doesn't sound very fancy, but it's the simplest method that is easiest to overlook. What I fear most are those who think they're clever and insist on finding complicated reasons to lose money.

It's easy to say, but execution is the real killer. Most people fail at this.

ngl the macd + moving average combo is basically just waiting for the optimal window to execute... same energy as watching gas prices for that perfect gwei dip. discipline > luck, always has been.

In simple terms, it's MACD plus moving averages. I also use this set of tools, but the key is really to endure; don't become greedy when it's time to take profits. --- Wait, why does this approach sound so familiar... Did I read a similar article long ago? The details are almost the same. --- The advice on taking profits in batches is quite practical, but with so many black swans in the crypto world, can technical indicators really help you avoid them? --- I find it most annoying when people say "execution is the only competitive advantage." It sounds easy, but when a bear market actually hits, how many can stick to their discipline? --- MACD golden cross sounds simple, but judging effective breakouts versus false breakouts is the real challenge. --- I won't deny it's effective, but I think it's more about surviving plus a bit of luck—it's not that miraculous.

To be honest, this set of methods sounds quite reliable, but the execution really trips up many people. Looking at it this way, the moving average stop-loss rule is the most ruthless; it can save your life or cut your losses, depending on your psychological readiness. The idea of partial take-profit is good, but when it hits 40%, your hands start to itch, and you keep wanting to wait a bit longer, only to end up eating the loss yourself. We all know about the MACD golden cross, but those who stick to a four-step system are probably a rare breed. It's hilarious—simple yet the hardest to execute. The crypto circle has made even the ears calloused from hearing it.
