Abstract generation in progress

In the world of cryptocurrency, the more people learn, the more confused they become. The more indicators they add, the faster their accounts evaporate. In reality, making money in this market is not about knowing more, but about knowing what to eliminate.

  1. Simplified Thinking – Less Is More Many people make the mistake of trying to understand “everything” in the market: from MACD, RSI, Bollinger Bands to all kinds of trendlines and news. But the deeper they delve, the more they lose the ability to analyze the core. Conversely, the most effective approach often comes from simplifying: Not relying on insider newsNot needing complex indicatorsNot trading constantly The key lies in finding patterns that are easy to understand, easy to execute, and easy to manage risk.
  2. The N-Pattern Rules – Three Clear Steps The N-pattern is considered a simple yet powerful price structure: Step 1: Price rises sharply (wave 1)Step 2: Light pullback, not too deep (wave 2)Step 3: Breakout to continue upward to confirm (wave 3) Only after these three steps are completed can a trade be activated. If the pattern is broken → stop loss immediately. No holding, no averaging down, no leverage.
  3. Risk-Reward Ratio – Fixed Profit Stop-loss: 2%Take-profit: 10% Win rate of just 35% can still generate positive growth Many people lose in crypto not because the model is wrong, but because: Not setting a stop-lossMoving stop-lossNot taking profits at the right pointsTrading too much Meanwhile, a fixed rule provides a stable profit curve.
  4. Golden Discipline – Trade Less, Earn More The speed of making money in this market is inversely proportional to the number of trades. Instead of opening charts all day, just: Open 4-hour chartsCheck patterns at 9:50 AMIf no pattern → close the softwareIf pattern appears → set SL/TP within 5 minutes The rest of the day is for life. Don’t let emotions or the market drag you along.
  5. Proven Preservation Strategy Making money but not preserving it is still considered a failure. Standard allocation rules: When the account reaches a significant milestone → withdraw principal to preserve gains.When capital has grown substantially → withdraw a large portion into safe channels like funds, savings, or long-term investments.The remaining capital continues trading according to the old strategy. Even if the market crashes, your financial foundation remains stable. 👉 The core to winning in crypto isn’t about overcomplicating everything, but about simplifying to the purest form: one model – one principle – one discipline.
