Having been in the crypto space for 8 years through ups and downs, I steadily grew my initial capital of 50,000 to over 50 million. Throughout the process, I never relied on luck or gambled on market trends; instead, I supported my trading with a self-developed system. I previously shared this method with a few friends, and some doubled their funds in just three months. Today, I decided to break down the core logic in hopes of helping beginners avoid common pitfalls.

**Position Control is the First Rule**
Divide your principal into 5 parts, and never invest more than 1 part at a time. At the same time, set a strict stop-loss of 10 points—this way, a single wrong judgment only risks losing 2% of your total funds. Even if you get the market wrong five times in a row, your total loss stays within 10%. That’s why I’ve survived so long—because losses are always within controllable limits.

**Follow the Trend to Make Money**
Downward rebounds are often traps for trap traders; the real buying opportunities occur during upward corrections. This logic is much more reliable than blindly bottom-fishing. Another pitfall: avoid coins that surge in the short term; after a prolonged stagnation at high levels, a big drop usually follows.

Use MACD to determine entry and exit points. A bullish crossover below the zero line is a buy signal, while a death cross above the zero line indicates it’s time to reduce your position. Remember: don’t add to your position when you’re not losing, only increase when you’re profitable. The relationship between volume and price is key—pay close attention to volume breakouts at low levels, and if volume stagnates at high levels, it’s time to exit decisively.

**Trade Only Coins That Follow the Trend**
Focus on coins with upward trends indicated by the 30-day and 120-day moving averages turning upward. These have the highest probability of success. Spend time reviewing your trades after each close, constantly calibrating your strategy to stay on track. The market is always there; the key is to have the right method.

Haha, another story of "8 years to make 50 million," just listen and don't take it seriously. Controlling positions is okay, but the real profit doesn't come from stop-losses; it's from those daring to go all-in moments. MACD? I gave up on that thing a long time ago. Anyway, the chances of getting it right or wrong are both 50%. This theory works well in a bull market, but it gets blown up in a bear market. Don't idolize it. Why didn't those friends who doubled their investments come out and brag together?

The 2% stop-loss theory sounds comfortable, but when the market is moving in seconds, there's no time to press it...

This explanation sounds quite reasonable, but in practice, only a few can really stick with it... It's easy to talk about but hard to actually do.

There's nothing wrong with talking about stop-loss strategies, but how many people can actually stick to them? Most people are still driven by greed.

Position management is spot on; setting a 10-point stop-loss can indeed help you survive longer. The only concern is that most people simply can't do it. Honestly, turning 50,000 into 50 million in 8 years sounds a bit unbelievable. But the methodology does have some reference value, especially the idea of splitting the position into 5 parts. I also use the MACD setup, but now the market noise is too much, and golden and death crosses often deceive. The volume-price relationship, however, is reliable. Avoiding coins that surge short-term is a very accurate suggestion. I’ve lost quite a bit chasing such coins before. Daily review is indeed important, but not many people stick with it. This system looks stable, but the most critical factors are execution and mindset. No matter how good the method is, emotions can ruin everything if they get the better of you. Position management will always be the top priority; this guy clearly understands that. But I’m more concerned about whether this method still applies now, given how different the market is compared to 8 years ago.

8 years from 50,000 to 50 million? Just listen, those who truly make money never explain it in such detail --- I agree with controlling positions and stop-losses, but may I ask, how do you feel when you get it wrong five times in a row? Talking on paper is easy --- MACD golden cross and death cross... easy to say, but in real trading, how many times have we been caught in a trap and doubted life? --- Trading with the trend, when the 30-day and 120-day moving averages are both rising, if the market turns, such targets would have already flown away, right? Do we even stand a chance? --- Whether a friend doubles their investment in three months is hard to say—whether it's real or just hype --- Not adding to positions is actually the hardest to execute. When you see the coin falling, you want to buy the dip; the more it falls, the more you want to add. Easy to say --- Daily review is fine, but how many people stick to it for a year?
