After years of navigating the crypto world, I’ve gradually realized one thing— the more complex a trade is, the easier it is for others to harvest your gains.
All those flashy indicators and elaborate strategies eventually fade away through repeated losses. I later shifted to minimalist trading, breaking down all the complexities into the most basic actions, and then mastering simplicity to the extreme. In this way, my initial 30,000 USDT gradually grew to 10 million USDT, with no insider information, no special talent, purely relying on discipline and rules.
Let me share my growth trajectory: it took 2 years to go from 30,000 to 120,000, then 1 year to break through to 600,000, and only 5 months to reach 1 million. You’ll notice a pattern— the more you earn, the fewer operations you need to make. It sounds silly, but this is an effective method.
**The core of the method boils down to 4 points:**
**First, the N-shaped pattern is my main entry signal**
After a strong rally, wait for a volume contraction and a pullback, then enter when the volume breaks out again. Once the level is broken, cut losses immediately. I don’t use leverage, don’t add to positions, and don’t stubbornly hold. Just understand the trend direction and follow it. Many people fall into greed, trying to make a profit at every corner, but end up becoming bagholders.
**Second, two ironclad rules that must not be violated**
Stop-loss is always 2%, take-profit is always 10%. Execute immediately once reached, don’t entertain fantasies like “waiting to see if it rebounds.” Do you know that a 35% win rate is actually enough to make money? Many try to break the rules and create miracles, but the end result is often a total loss. Those trend lines and various indicators, honestly, are unnecessary. Over-analysis can drag you into a pit of subjective guesses.
**Third, I only watch the 20-day moving average**
Just this one line is enough. I prefer to keep the color muted to reduce subjective judgment interference. Spend less than 5 minutes each day scanning the 4-hour chart. If there’s a signal, place an order; if not, shut down. Live your life as you see fit, trade as you should, and stay relaxed without that tense feeling.
**Fourth, withdraw promptly and progress steadily**
When my account reached 120,000, I withdrew all my initial capital. When it hit 600,000, I moved some into more stable investments. The remaining amount in the market is only what I can afford to lose. Don’t listen to stories of “getting rich overnight,” first ensure your wealth won’t go to zero—that’s the top priority.
Many people laughed at my approach as being too simple and straightforward. But in the crypto world, only disciplined people can laugh last. You don’t need to catch every market wave; just focus on the opportunities you truly understand, and that’s enough to change the game.
I’ve been through the dark times in crypto, and now I pass this torch to you. If you’re tired of being trapped by complex indicators and staying up late watching charts, and want to steadily move forward in the crypto space, then join me—keep it simple. Action is always more important than daydreaming.

It sounds right, but the difficulty of execution is there; most people still can't control their hands.

Complex indicators are just tools for cutting leeks; it's really just one moving average to make a living. Simplicity and straightforwardness are the way to go.

Wait, I need to think this through... Going from 30,000 to 10 million just relies on a 20-day moving average? That sounds a bit too perfect.

Discipline is truly the only cheat code; everything else is an illusion.

Simplicity and straightforwardness are the keys to longevity. Those flashy indicators have long been proven to be tools for scamming retail investors.

Sounds reliable, but honestly, this set of things is just survivor bias. How many people have gone from 30,000 to 10 million, and how many have lost everything?
