For amounts within 10,000 yuan, the biggest taboo in trading is overthinking. Many people wish they could double their account overnight, but what happens? The more they tinker, the faster they lose. I've seen too many examples like this.



Today, I’ll break down a very "simple" trading framework. It may not sound exciting or give a quick thrill, but most people around me who use this method have gradually grown their small accounts.

The core belief: rules are always stronger than feelings.

How to choose coins? It’s actually not difficult. Just focus on the daily chart structure. When the daily chart starts to turn strong and the momentum is in the recovery phase, that’s when it’s worth your time. All other news, concepts, stories? Filter them out. There’s too much noise.

Entry timing is also clear. When volume and price move together, that’s the signal. Never chase a rise without volume support. What you want is someone really buying, not just price jumps.

How to manage positions? Just watch one key moving average. If the price stays above it, hold on; if it breaks below, exit immediately. No hesitation, no explanations. This isn’t about analysis or judgment, it’s about disciplined execution.

After the price rises, take profits in stages. Don’t think about grabbing the top in one go—that’s the gambler’s mindset. If it turns bad, clear your position immediately, then wait for the next opportunity. Opportunities will always come.

Stop-loss is based solely on the closing price. Don’t worry about intraday fluctuations; the key is whether the close can hold. If it can’t, it indicates a potential problem with this direction—get out. Missing the chance isn’t scary; the real danger is holding onto the wrong position.

Honestly, this method is pretty boring. It doesn’t rely on fancy technical indicators or "black tech" stock-picking methods. But you see, the market never rewards those who keep changing things up. In the end, those who survive are those who repeatedly follow simple rules with discipline.

Opportunities are available every year. The problem is, if you can’t even follow basic discipline, then even the best market conditions in front of you are just a spectacle for you.

That's right, the biggest pitfall for small players is greed. I've seen too many people go all-in and then blow up immediately. Rules > I feel this sentence hits home. It's just poor execution. Clearly knowing you need discipline, but when you see a limit-up, your hands get itchy. Daily charts + volume and price analysis are indeed the truth; don't be brainwashed by those concept news. The noise is overwhelming. The key is that sentence "Holding the wrong position is more deadly than missing out," it's so profound. Many people stubbornly refuse to cut losses, and in the end, they can only lose everything.

Rules are stronger than feelings; this sentence hits the mark, but I just can't stick to it, brother. --- Same old story, tired of hearing it. The key question is, can anyone really do it? --- Small account dreams of flipping are shattered by discipline, truly. --- Watching daily charts, waiting for volume and price, sticking to moving averages... It's simple to say, but if you don't watch your hands during trading, you'll get itchy. --- The last sentence is harsh. No matter how good the market is, it's useless without self-control. --- Earning with boring methods is real silver and gold. It's a bit ironic but very realistic. --- I just want to know how many people can truly do "sell immediately when breaking below." --- All feelings, stories, and black technology are excluded; what's left is just dull living. --- Flashy people do lose money quickly, but obedient ones don't necessarily make money either. --- Discipline enforcement? Can you really resist small fluctuations during trading?

That's right, the hardest part is discipline. I've seen too many small investors messing around aimlessly, losing what they earned in half a year in just one month. Enforcing rules is truly more effective than any fancy indicator, but no one can stick to it.
