There is an interesting phenomenon in the trading market: the more you learn, the faster you tend to lose money. Recently, US non-farm payroll data fell below expectations, increasing market volatility. This is actually a test of your trading system.

A trader shared a case: starting with a capital of 30,000, he turned it into 120,000 in two years, then doubled to 600,000 in one year, and finally reached 10 million in the last five months. It sounds incredible, but the underlying logic is quite simple— the speed of making money is inversely related to the frequency of trades.

The core methodology of this trader is to strictly follow the N-shaped pattern: vertical surge, diagonal pullback, then vertical breakout. Enter the trade with a 2% stop loss and a 10% take profit. Even with only a 35% win rate, continuous execution remains profitable. Why? Because risk is fixed, profit has a boundary, and probability theory will automatically give you the answer.

The operation process is extremely simple: open the exchange at 9:50 AM every day, review the 4-hour chart, and if you don’t see the N pattern, just shut down. If you do see it, place an order and then do your own thing. No indicator clutter, no drawing all kinds of trend lines, no chasing news—just rely on the 20-day moving average to select the direction. The entire operation takes 5 minutes, leaving 23 hours and 55 minutes for coffee, walking the dog, or studying the next trading cycle.

Just follow these three iron rules: don’t chase the rise, don’t hold onto losing positions, and don’t fight the market. Many people's losses come from these three words. When market sentiment fluctuates (for example, during adjustments caused by poor non-farm data), sticking to these three rules becomes a protective umbrella.

The core insight of this methodology is one sentence: simplify complex trading logic into repeatable actions, and execute simple rules to the extreme. Most people fail because they think too much and make things too complicated.
