#数字资产市场动态 K-line analysis has been thoroughly understood, only then can you realize: the first million in the crypto world has never been won by luck or gambling.
Why do many people's trades always result in losses? It's not because they don't know how to operate, but because they make a fatal mistake—sticking rigidly to one cycle for decision-making. The longer you look, the easier it is to be washed out by market fluctuations.
My trading habits over the years are actually quite simple: multiple cycles serve their respective roles. Breaking down into three layers—direction, position, and timing—makes trading much easier.
**Start with the larger cycle**
I usually open the 4-hour chart, but not to find specific points. Instead, I ask a core question: Should I go long right now, or is it only suitable to go short?
If the market is trending upward, only look for pullback opportunities; if trending downward, wait for rebounds; if sideways, stay put. Trading in the trend is the only way to have a chance at a high win rate; fighting against the trend, no matter how exciting, is futile.
**Use the secondary cycle to find ranges**
After confirming the direction, switch to the 1-hour chart. Don’t chase prices on this cycle—just draw ranges. Where are the previous support levels, dense trading zones, and easy price congestion points? These are clearly visible at a glance. Only when the price approaches these key levels is it worth paying attention; avoid trading when the market is far from these ranges, no matter how beautiful the chart looks.
**Finally, confirm with the 15-minute cycle**
This cycle doesn’t focus on trend; it looks for the final move. Are there reversal signals at key levels? Is the volume confirming? If conditions aren’t met, it’s better to miss the trade. I prefer to trade less rather than trade blindly.
By coordinating these three cycles, trading ceases to be a "guess whether it will go up or down" gamble. Instead, it becomes a step-by-step process of waiting for the market to present opportunities. If the larger and smaller cycles conflict? Then just stay flat and wait for the market to settle; it won’t miss a single trade.
This method has served me well for many years—simple but stable. Whether you can make money boils down to two things: are you willing to seriously analyze the charts, and can you stick to the rules. The market is open 24 hours; those who rush to place orders often meet the fastest demise.

The multi-cycle approach sounds good, but the people who actually make money wouldn't teach others in such detail.

Well said, multi-cycle analysis is indeed the threshold for avoiding pitfalls.

You're right, multi-cycle analysis is indeed effective, but very few people can truly stick with it.

After hearing it so many times, some still rush in, rushing to make money and ending up getting caught.
---
I deeply understand the importance of setting direction on the 4-hour chart, which has saved me from countless unnecessary counter-trades.
---
The key is to strictly follow the rules; 99% of people can't do it, and I often break my own rules too.

Waiting for the market doesn't wait for people, but when you wait for the right moment, the profits are truly comfortable, unlike chasing trades which can be so exhausting.
