There are often people asking me how to choose coins and how to pinpoint the buying points. To be honest, the method isn't very complicated; the difficult part is execution—being steady, accurate, and ruthless. This requires ironclad discipline. Those who stick firmly to the rules usually laugh last, while those who go against them will be harshly punished by the market.



My operational approach can be divided into six steps, with a simple core logic: only eat the middle segment of a clear trend, and decisively abandon the risk zones at the head and tail.

**Step 1: Identify active coins from the gainers list**

Every day at market open, my first move is to check the gainers ranking, focusing on coins that have shown unusual activity or have formed a clear upward curve in the past half month. Coins that can really rise are definitely supported by funds, and trading volume must keep pace. Coins that are lying flat and ignored may seem calm on the surface, but in reality, they lack momentum. In this circle, the phenomenon of the strong dominating the weak is very common, and main funds naturally flow toward those that have already demonstrated strength.

**Step 2: A monthly MACD golden cross is the real explosion signal**

Finding strong coins is just the beginning; the key is to confirm whether the trend has truly started. I only recognize a monthly MACD golden cross (white line crossing above the yellow line), which indicates that a medium- to long-term upward channel may have opened. Never gamble on oversold rebounds—that's not trading, it's gambling. Everyone understands the characteristics of the crypto market: 80% of the time is consolidation, only 20% is explosive. Our task is to capture that 20% of clear trends, and ignore the rest.

**Step 3: The 60-day moving average is the golden entry point**

Even if the monthly chart shows a golden cross signal, I won't greedily chase the high. The real entry opportunity often appears near the 60-day moving average—this line acts like a magnet, attracting funds seeking value. Entering here offers the most balanced risk-to-reward ratio.

That's right, discipline is the key, but in real practice, 90% of people fail here...

That's right, execution is the real killer move; most people die from greed. Just looking at the top gainers is useless; you also need to have main funds following, otherwise it's just a false alarm. I also believe in the monthly golden cross, but the prerequisite is volume support; otherwise, fake breakouts will just trap you. The 60-day moving average is indeed good, but macro factors must be considered. Relying solely on technical analysis is gambling. This set of logic sounds simple, but discipline is the hardest to maintain in actual operation. I've seen too many give up halfway. I completely agree with not touching the head and tail; unfortunately, most people prefer to buy the dip and sell at the top. The saying "the strong eat all" is correct, but when is someone considered "strong"? Yesterday's gains could collapse today. The key is timing; even the best methods require precise entry points. The MACD golden cross is just a reference.

actually, the discipline part hits different—most people know the framework but can't stick to it, ngl. that's where the real edge lives.

Purely repeating the old tricks of crypto trading, MACD, 60-day moving average—these are already outdated and everywhere.

That's right, discipline is truly the foundation of making money. I once suffered losses from not following the rules, and only then did I realize how crucial execution is.

That's right, discipline is truly the key to making money in mining. Poor execution is the Achilles' heel for most people.

That's right, it's all about discipline. I used to fall for greed, knowing I should wait for the 60-day moving average, but I couldn't resist chasing the high, and I got trapped. Now I follow the rules strictly, even if it means earning slower, at least I can last longer.
