#美SEC促进加密资产创新监管框架 Last March, a buddy of mine lost $20,000 USDT and was left with only $8,000.
He stayed up all night watching BTC’s candlestick chart plunge—chasing highs, panic selling, stubbornly averaging down—basically running around like a headless chicken.
Later, he admitted that his technical skills were trash, so he used a “foolproof moving average strategy” and actually turned $8,000 into $48,000. When you look at his trading records, it’s all basic moves like “buy when it breaks out, sell when it breaks down.”
He turned complicated technical analysis into three “simple actions.”
It sounds ridiculously simple, but he just did three things:
First: Only pick coins that are holding strong
Don’t touch coins in a downtrend! When looking at the candlestick chart, only go for those with upward-spreading moving averages—5-day above 15-day, 15-day above 30-day, or ones like BTC, ETH, SOL that are moving sideways. No matter how cheap a falling coin is, it’s a trap.
Second: Split your principal into three, buy in stages
Say you have $10,000 USDT—divide it into three parts of about $3,000 each: Price breaks above the 5-day MA → put in 30% ($3,000) Breaks above the 15-day MA → add another 30% (now $6,000 total) Breaks above the 30-day MA → put in the last 30% (full position: $10,000) Don’t skip steps!
Third: If the price tests and holds the line, “play dead”; if it breaks, get out immediately
After buying, keep your hands off: After breaking above the 5-day MA, if the price comes back to test but doesn’t fall below, keep holding. If it breaks, sell 30%. After breaking above the 15-day MA and testing, if it holds, keep holding. If it breaks, sell another 30%. If all 5/15/30-day MAs are broken? Close your whole position—don’t hesitate.
21 days: From “itchy hands” to a “discipline machine”
At first, he kept thinking, “Maybe I should wait.” Someone told him, “The essence of this foolproof method is ‘don’t overthink it’—when the signal comes, act.”
The first time it broke the 5-day MA, he forced himself to buy $3,000, and resisted the urge to sell during the pullback. When it broke the 15-day MA, he added $3,000; when it broke the 30-day MA, he threw in the last $3,000. Later, when BTC pulled back and broke the 5-day MA, he immediately sold $3,000 and successfully avoided a 10% drop.
After 21 days, that $3,000 actually made a 40% profit (became $4,200)—no chasing, no averaging down, just pure discipline.
Three-month results: $10,000 turned into $52,000
Honestly, I’m not some expert—I just took the “fool’s method” to the extreme. In crypto, 90% of people lose because they “think they’re smart enough.”
It’s said that 47 people have already started practicing with this method, and the fastest one turned $500 into $30,000 in just 2 months.

Damn, really? 8,000 turned into 48,000? I have to try this moving average strategy.
But honestly, the key is still sticking to discipline—a lot of people just can't keep their hands off.
The data from these 47 people seems a bit sketchy, 500U to 30,000U in 2 months? That's pretty wild.

Discipline is the key; don’t overthink it.

Damn, this is what they call "great truths are always simple," it's really amazing.
Even the toughest people can't stick to the rule of running when the support breaks, it takes a lot of patience.

LOL, it's that same old "fool's moving average" story again. I've heard it way too many times.

Damn, isn't this exactly what happened to me last year? Discipline really is the first lesson in making money.
