Many people say "In the crypto world, one day is like a year in the human world," but why can some people double their investments while most others keep losing more with each trade? The key difference is not luck, but the systematic approach and disciplined execution.



I tested a method with a 50,000 yuan principal—by aiming for a 10% profit target and sticking to it, I eventually grew the capital to 1.13 million. This logic may seem simple, but it is precisely the standard setup for those who consistently make stable profits. Good profit strategies are often straightforward and solid; the most feared are those that are overly complex and unpredictable.

**Core Framework: The Five-Part Division Method**

The first step is crucial—divide the entire principal equally into 5 parts. For 50,000 yuan, that means splitting into five 10,000 yuan portions. This is not some fancy trick; the purpose is straightforward: reduce the risk exposure of each decision and ensure you have enough "ammunition" to handle various market scenarios.

**Startup Phase: Gradual Positioning**

Start with mainstream coins (those with good liquidity and stable consensus). Invest the first portion at the current price. If the price drops, don’t panic—this is part of the plan. When the decline reaches about 10%, add the second portion. Continue this process, gradually deploying all five portions. The premise here is: only use reliable coins. High-risk, zero-tolerance coins are not suitable for this method.

**Profit Taking: Take Profits When in the Green**

Once the price increases by 10%, sell one portion immediately. Don’t try to be greedy; locking in gains is the key. The main point is—stick to this standard in every cycle and don’t change the rules just because the market is hot.

**Why does this method outperform most retail traders?**

It allows you to stay calm during deep corrections. Even if mainstream coins drop 50%, the five-part deployment has already covered most price levels, and the rebound can bring significant gains. Market makers may try to shake out retail investors with a shake-down, but it actually becomes an opportunity for you to add positions. In volatile markets, this method is especially effective—regardless of whether prices are rising or falling, you can find the rhythm to trade instead of being trapped by a one-sided trend.

Psychologically, it also offers an advantage. When others get wiped out, you are adding to your positions; when others chase high, you are taking profits. This counter-trend rhythm can help you avoid most of the typical traps retail traders fall into over the long term.

**Advanced Play**

Once proficient, you can try reducing the profit target. Change 10% to 5%, which doubles the turnover efficiency. This is suitable during periods of high market volatility. But the prerequisite is that you have already internalized the basic version—otherwise, frequent trading can increase costs and risks.

**Final Words**

The core of trading cryptocurrencies is never about predicting the market; it’s about controlling the rhythm and managing the rolling of funds. To achieve stable gains, mastering this method is a prerequisite.

honestly the 5-tranche split is just DCA with extra steps lol, but i'll admit the discipline part hits different... most ppl can't even stick to 10% take profit without fomo'ing into the next pump. watched the gas spike yesterday while waiting for optimal entry windows and even that tested my patience, so yeah i get it.

Basically, it's just about not being greedy. Taking 10% profit is a bit harsh, but it definitely allows you to live longer than most people.

That's true, but how many can actually hold on to 10% profit before cashing out? Most are still greedy and get caught in the trap.

Sounds good, but the problem is that most people can't hold on at all, and they want to go all in after just one limit-up.

Sounds good, but the authenticity of turning 50,000 into 1,130,000 is a bit questionable... --- Again, five parts of legal compliance and a 10% profit guarantee... Bro, your theory was popular in 2018 too, but the key is that most people get stuck in their mindset. --- Basically, it's dollar-cost averaging + take profit, but the difficulty of execution is seriously underestimated. --- I just want to know what happened to that 1,130,000 later; did it just become legendary and stop there? --- Splitting into five parts sounds simple, but in actual trading, a market plunge can break your defense, and who can really stick to a 10% profit and then exit? --- Not to mention, traders who can cure their greed have already won against 90% of people. --- The problem is... once you really start making money, who cares about systems or discipline? You've already gone all-in on the next concept coin. --- This method is indeed comfortable in a choppy market, but when an extreme unidirectional trend hits, going all-in with five parts can be a total loss.
