After five years of Cryptocurrency Trading, the Candlestick charts didn't break me, but instead turned me into an "ATM"—full-time trading supports my whole family, with a house and car in Shenzhen + an eight-digit savings, all earned from the Candlestick charts! Over these five years, I've experienced long term stability, short-term precision, and flexible swing trading, solidifying the survival rules that keep me grounded, constantly reminding me to maintain my mindset, and sharing with my fellow traders:

Capital management is essential! Even with a small principal, you must leave a safety cushion. Understand the main upward trend once a year, enough to spend without being greedy;
Cognition determines the height of returns! Practice speed with a demo account, and temper your heart with real money—only when you invest real money do you understand what it means to face pressure.
Take profit and stop loss quickly and accurately! If you haven't cleared your position when the good news has been fully released, a high opening the next day is your escape route. Don't wait for "good news to turn into bad news" and get trapped.
If the direction goes off track, cut your losses directly! Don’t cling to the "break-even fantasy" and stubbornly hold on; preserving your capital gives you the strength to make a comeback.
Choosing coins + timing = doubling password: For short-term, focus on popular coins with high trading volume; those with poor liquidity are traps.
Keep enough liquid funds for medium to long term, adjust for rises and falls, and average down costs to be at ease;
Holidays sharpen the edge! During low liquidity, the big players can easily stir things up, reducing positions and steadily sitting on the fishing platform;
Don't be greedy with the technicals! Keep an eye on the 15-minute Candlestick, paired with the trusty KDJ and MACD, it's enough without being redundant;
In a bull market, don't engage in short-term trading; in a bear market, don't hold on to long-term positions. Reduce positions at highs and increase positions at lows— the principle is simple, but the challenge lies in the unity of knowledge and action.
Never follow the trend when uncertain! It's better to miss out than to make a mistake. The cryptocurrency market never lacks opportunities; what it lacks is patience.
Cryptocurrency Trading is not a gamble; it is a practice of adhering to rules with a sense of reverence and a relentless pursuit of skill.
Hold the bottom line, withstand the fluctuations, and amid the rise and fall of Candlesticks, one can naturally achieve steady profits.
