“Isn't it better for girls to marry rich men than to trade cryptocurrencies?”
A few years ago, my aunt's words pierced my heart like a thorn. At that time, I had just lost all my savings, clutching the remaining 800U while squatting on the floor of my rented room, unable to even turn on the air conditioning. Hot posts on forums, K-line myths, and 'potential coins' that promise overnight wealth… I stepped into all the pits that beginners should avoid, and my capital shrank to almost zero.
Until I met the noble person who changed my trading career—a senior trader whose maximum drawdown did not exceed 8% for five consecutive years. She told me: “The market is not a casino, but a piggy bank for those who understand the rules.” The three tips she taught me had no complex terminology, only strict discipline in execution.
First tactic: Diversified rolling, keeping your trump card
60% bottom position: Only invest in Bitcoin and Ethereum, do not cut losses when prices drop, and do not envy when prices rise. This part is the "ballast stone," the goal is not to make huge profits, but to withstand long-term volatility.
40% rolling position: Use only 1/5 of the funds for swing trading, reinvest profits to supplement the bottom position, and absolutely do not touch the bottom position for any losses.
When Ethereum broke through $2000 in 2020, my rolling position profits accumulated to 120,000 U, which paid off the down payment for my first home. The bottom position remains unchanged, while the rolling position is guerrilla — this is the confidence against the market's craziness.
Second tactic: Signal resonance, rejecting noise
Hot forum posts and erratic K-lines? I learned to "block out a single perspective":
Buy signal: RSI below 30 (oversold) + MACD golden cross (trend reversal) must appear simultaneously before taking action
Sell signal: RSI above 70 (overbought) + MACD death cross resonance must exit.
Last year, when SOL dropped from $100 to $80, the market was in panic, but I waited until both signals were ready before entering, earning back 380,000 U in three days. Being patient for signals is more profitable than frequent trading.
Third tactic: Tiered profit-taking to lock in profits
"Earning without cashing out is equivalent to working for nothing!" I have developed the habit of setting up three checkpoints before opening a position:
First step: Withdraw 10% to a cold wallet to buy gold when profits reach 20% (my "tangible safety vault");
Second step: Withdraw 30% as stablecoin when profits reach 50%;
Third step: Immediately liquidate to preserve capital if the remaining part retraces more than 10%.
In 2022, when LUNA crashed, I preserved 90% of my profits with tiered profit-taking, and my account instead rose by 39%. This money allowed me to buy my first car and completely silenced my aunt.
Heartfelt words for my sisters
Don't be greedy: Focus on no more than two coins at the same time, scattered attention equals giving money to the market.
When the signal hasn't arrived, it's better to miss out: making random moves is more deadly than doing nothing, there will always be opportunities in the market
Give yourself a sense of security: marrying is not a risk hedge, with a stable method, the account is the greatest confidence.
Last year, my aunt brought a basket of cherries and repeatedly said, "I was shortsighted back then." I only replied: "The ability to make steady money is much more reliable than marrying a rich person."
