Someone recently asked me what my trading logic is. To be honest, I mainly engage in cyclical trading. In this recent market phase, I determined that BTC is following the fifth wave upward structure. Once I establish the cycle framework, I need to have a clear understanding of the critical points within this cycle — this is very important.

At the execution level, it’s actually not complicated: within the confirmed cycle, you can do T-shaped trades in the same direction, making full use of the volatility space. However, for trades in the opposite direction, you must strictly set stop-losses and not leave any room for illusions. Many people lose because they can’t bear to cut losses.

I take the phrase "befriend time" very seriously. Don’t fight against the market; align with the cycle. I entered the market with a principal of 9200U, and now I’ve made over 10,000U in profit. The next goal is to reach 100,000U. If executed properly, this target can definitely be achieved by 2026.

The key is to identify a cycle and then strictly follow discipline to execute. There are no other secrets.

Stop-loss really hits home; how many people die at the moment of reluctance to let go That's right, aligning with the cycle is more important than anything else From 9200 to breaking 10,000, it's really tough, but I just want to ask, where are those who executed properly now I've heard this cycle framework theory many times, but how many can really hold on to the critical point The logic is clear, but it all depends on who can hold out until 2026 The words "stop-loss" sound simple, but in execution, if ten people try, only one might succeed Relying solely on discipline to get by, there's really not much flair involved

Stop-loss is really easy to talk about but deadly to implement. I've seen too many people say discipline, but as soon as the price drops, they imagine a rebound, and end up getting liquidated. Aligning with the cycle, I agree. But for the fifth wave, how are you so sure it won't extend? From 9200 to breaking 10,000 is okay. But by 2026, it needs to reach 100,000. What's the average annual growth rate? Feels a bit tight, brother. Honestly, it's still a matter of stop-loss. Most people lose because of this. The cycle framework is indeed crucial, but grasping the critical points really depends on experience, I feel like there's no way to teach it.

Stop-loss is really the only rule to survive; forget about all those fancy tricks. Aligning with the cycle is more important than prediction, I agree with that. The fifth wave theory sounds familiar, but discipline in execution is the real dividing line. Going from 9200 to breaking 10,000 sounds easy, but the difficulty of execution is at its maximum. Saving 100,000 by 2026 depends on truly maintaining discipline and not bottom-fishing in the next two years. The cycle framework is set up, and what's left is a psychological battle; most people get stuck here. This logic has no flaws, but the key is to be able to hold back and not act impulsively.

Basically, it still comes down to discipline; otherwise, even the best logic is useless. Stop-loss is indeed the Achilles' heel for most people; many go bankrupt because they can't bear to cut losses. I agree with the idea of cycle alignment; it's much more reliable than blindly chasing hot topics. From 9200 to over 10,000, this growth rate is really steady, but the key is to be able to stick with it until 2026. Too many people just think about it but don't take action; only a few can actually execute.
