After years of navigating the crypto world, I’ve gradually come to a harsh truth—those who survive are never the smartest, but the most disciplined.

I still remember when I first entered the market, looking at a few thousand USDT in my account. In a moment of impulsiveness, I went all-in, only to be hit repeatedly by the market’s swings. I’ve seen too many beginners with dreams of doubling their money in a month, only to end up losing everything after constant tinkering. Each story is more tragic than the last, each one a vivid lesson.

It wasn’t until a certain moment that I realized: the game for small accounts isn’t about chasing overnight riches, but about learning to sustain compound growth. Like rolling a snowball, each step in the right direction accumulates enough momentum. I have a fan who used this method, growing from a five-figure account to six figures. The core logic is actually four steps, and none can be skipped.

**First Trick: Choose Coins by "Multi-Timeframe Resonance"**

I never follow big influencers’ analysis when selecting coins. I focus on one key signal—the golden cross formed when the daily EMA12 crosses above EMA26, especially when it’s above the zero line, which is most effective.

Why these two parameters? Honestly, I spent years backtesting various combinations and found that EMA12 and EMA26 are a perfect pair—they can catch early trend signals and effectively filter out false breakouts. Some friends have relied on this simple indicator system to dodge 90% of the “fake breakouts” in the market.

But here’s a crucial point—looking at the daily chart alone isn’t enough. You must add multi-timeframe resonance verification. When the weekly chart also shows a bullish alignment, the success rate of this signal doubles. My own trading discipline is: only consider coins that are above the 55-week moving average on the monthly chart and have broken above the 55-week MA on the weekly chart. It sounds strict, but that’s precisely why the success rate improves.

**Second Trick: The 30-Day Moving Average Is Both a Defense and a Bottom Line**

This is the core logic of my entire trading system—simple and straightforward but effective: hold tight when the price is above, and exit immediately when it breaks.

How exactly? The logic isn’t complicated: when the candlestick closes below the 30-day moving average, cut your position in half. If the next day’s open doesn’t recover this line, then exit all positions. It sounds ridiculously simple, but few actually stick to this discipline. Many traders keep hoping “it will rebound,” only to get stuck for months.

Among my students, those who finally make money are invariably the ones who are most ruthless with this line. They don’t soften because the coin looks good; if it breaks the 30-day MA, it’s broken—no emotional attachment. This ironclad discipline, frankly, is the secret to surviving longer and accumulating more compound growth.
