Brothers and sisters, stop treating sideways trading as the enemy! A fan once asked me how to handle sideways markets, so I gave her a set of methods so boring they’d make you sleepy.


Result: in 60 days, 3,000 USD turned into 72k USD. No contracts involved, no late nights, just steady, boring trading.
My secret is simple: actively give up 99% of the market moves, only eat that 1% most stable meat.
#币圈生存法则
First layer: Dismantle positions to resist shocks, never go all-in
Split 3,000 USD into 3 parts: short-term positions with a maximum of 2 trades per day, take profit at 2%-3% and stop; trend positions wait until the weekly MA30 is above MA60 and breaks through recent highs, take half the profit at 30%, set a 10% trailing stop for the rest; reserve positions are for covering losses, no new funds added. During consolidation, this split is a hundred times safer than going all-in.

Second layer: Follow the trend, avoid trap of oscillation
Strict rule: only trade clear trends where “daily MA30 is above MA60 + volume breaks previous high,” and close the software otherwise. Nearly 60% of the past six months was sideways, chasing every fluctuation with constant monitoring costs a lot in fees and gets you trapped. I took the chance to spend time with family and avoided most of the false breakout traps—sideways markets don’t make money, only generate anxiety.

Third layer: Manage yourself first, then profit from the market
Three strict rules: cut losses immediately at 3% loss per trade, never hold through a loss; lock in profits when over 10%, move stop-loss to break-even; log out of the app at 11 PM, and if you stay up late once, don’t trade the next day. If you feel itchy, delete the app—way more reliable than stubbornly holding.
The crypto world has long moved past the savage era of “betting big.” Master these three layers: position sizing to resist risk, wait for trends instead of blindly acting, discipline yourself and control emotions—when the next market wave comes, you’ll be able to steadily and safely profit.
