Many people in the crypto circle are becoming more confused the more they research. They look at countless indicators, follow every piece of news, but their accounts end up losing money faster and faster. A trader’s experience might offer some inspiration.



He started with 30,000 yuan and accumulated to 10 million through three stages: the first stage took 2 years to grow from 30,000 to 1.2 million, mainly focusing on $ETH; the second stage took only 1 year to jump from 1.2 million to 6 million, with a focus on $BTC; the final stage took just 5 months to break through from 6 million to 10 million, mainly trading $BNB.

He discovered a counterintuitive rule — the speed of making money is inversely proportional to the number of trades. The more frequent the trading, the greater the risk exposure, and ultimately, the more likely to lose money.

**The core method is actually very "simple"**

He only fixates on one pattern: the N-shaped trend. A vertical surge, a slanting pullback, then a vertical breakout. Once the pattern forms, he enters the market; if the trend breaks, he immediately cuts his position. No averaging down, no holding through losses, no leverage — executed cleanly and decisively.

Stop-loss is firmly set at 2%, take-profit target at 10%. Mathematically, as long as the win rate reaches 35%, consistent profitability is achievable. Many people think this approach is too "rigid," spending every day studying various indicators, drawing trend lines, tracking news, but the more clever tricks they use, the faster they lose money.

**Trading execution is extremely simple**

He keeps only one 20-day moving average on the chart, and dims its color to reduce visual distraction. Every morning at 9:50, he opens the exchange, scans the 4-hour chart — if there’s no N-shaped pattern, he shuts down immediately; if there’s a suitable opportunity, he sets stop-loss and take-profit orders and then stops trading for the day. The entire process takes about 5 minutes; the rest of the time, he drinks coffee, takes walks, and doesn’t need to watch the screen.

**Fund management is equally rigorous**

When the account reaches 1.2 million, he withdraws the original 30,000 principal; at 6 million, he takes out half to buy financial products and fixed deposits; the remaining funds continue to be used for trading. This way, even if the market turns bad, the bottom assets remain stable enough.

**Three ironclad rules remain unchanged**

First, do not chase the rally; wait until the N-shaped pattern completes before acting. Second, do not hold through a breakdown; exit immediately if the trend breaks. Third, do not fight the market; once the target profit is reached, withdraw promptly.

There is no holy grail for guaranteed wins in the crypto market. The best you can do is use the simplest, most effective methods to filter out risks. Persist long enough, and profits will naturally stay. Instead of dreaming of finding a hundredfold coin, it’s better to think about how to consistently earn 10% over 20 consecutive trades — you’ll find that accumulating 10 million is just a matter of time.

I am a pragmatist and hate those grandiose promises. This article really struck a chord with me—really, simplicity to the extreme is actually the hardest. I have also gone through that phase, with all kinds of indicators filling the screen, and in the end, I was cutting my positions every day. Looking back now, the simpler the rules, the higher the execution rate, and the more profit I make. The case of the N-shaped pattern is actually very insightful: a 35% win rate is profitable, but most people insist on pursuing over 80% win rate, resulting in frequent entries and exits, with fees and slippage eating up all the profits. Especially respect that "withdrawal strategy"—taking out the principal once it reaches 1.2 million, that’s truly someone with risk awareness. Many people make money and then leverage up to double, only to return to zero after a market wave—there are too many stories like that. The key still lies in those three iron rules, which sound ridiculously simple, but very few can truly implement. I think this is a hundred times more reliable than AI coin picking or influencers shouting signals.

It seems like a disciplined, straightforward approach with no fancy tricks... but this kind of "simple method" is indeed the hardest to stick to. But to be fair, the logic that a 35% win rate can still lead to stable profits sounds simple, but actually doing it is extremely difficult. I heard someone used this N-shaped pattern, and as a result, they still went bankrupt—probably had almost no self-control. They only watch the 4-hour chart every day and then go for coffee and walks. If it were me, I would definitely place sneaky orders. The money management part of the logic is pretty good; at least it won't wipe out your entire funds in one go.

You're really ruthless. I used to monitor metrics and chase news every day, and as a result, the more I got itchy hands, the more my account lost... Looking back, I really should learn to keep my mouth shut.
