Can Regular People Still Make Money in the Crypto Market?

Question

As I enter my tenth full-time year trading crypto in 2025, I've got some perspective to share. Last year, I spent 11 months trading contracts, starting with just 2000U and turning it into over 20 million - that's a 1000x return. Not bad for someone who isn't special.

First off, don't worry about missing the earliest crypto players. Since 2016, Bitcoin has gone through 4 complete cycles that regular folks like us could understand and participate in.

Each cycle saw 3-6x increases. You can't perfectly time the absolute bottoms or tops, so let's be conservative and say 4x each cycle. With this math, 20 thousand could become 5.12 million over these four cycles. Starting with 50 thousand? That's 12.8 million.

Look at these numbers - they absolutely can help ordinary people transform their financial situation.

To achieve true financial freedom in crypto and harness compound interest, your methods, techniques and creating your own profit system are critical!

Once you master these skills, the crypto market becomes your personal ATM - earning becomes as natural as breathing!

After over 10 years trading crypto, here's my wealth-building timeline:

The first ten million took the longest and hurt the most. I spent eighteen months constantly evolving my trading system.
The second ten million took just three months
The third ten million? Forty days
The fourth ten million? A mere 5 days
75% of my capital was earned in just six months.

How I made my money:

The 300U Optimal Contract Strategy (Effective Capital Doubling) [Worth Studying Repeatedly]

Key principles: Strict capital management | Only BTC+/ETH+ | Stop loss > Profit | Limit to 3 attempts

I. Starting Phase: 300U→1100U (three-stage sprint)

Strategy: 100U×3 attempts, each with 10x leverage, 7% profit/5% loss (profit-to-loss ratio 1.4:1)

When the market trends well, I ride hot coins. I maintain a 3:1 risk-reward ratio and implement a daily stop loss of 15-20% of capital.

I never trade with everything hoping to get rich quick. I only trade within my comfort zone and learned to stay on the sidelines when necessary. No night trading, minimal weekend trading, and emotional control after stop losses.

RSI Slice Trading - The Ultimate Art

I've distilled the essence of RSI slice trading techniques - master this method and you can achieve 30x returns in crypto trading.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is one of the most frequently used technical indicators by global traders. Developed by Wall Street trader J. Welles Wilder, it captures price momentum with values from 0 to 100.

When RSI drops below 30, the market is considered "oversold," potentially signaling an upward reversal. Above 70 is considered "overbought," suggesting a possible downward correction.

But don't be fooled - these aren't absolute signals! Strong downtrends can keep RSI in oversold territory for extended periods. Blindly buying just because RSI is below 30 isn't smart.

Bullish RSI Divergence

Bullish divergence occurs when price charts show lower lows while RSI shows higher lows. This signals that downward momentum is weakening, increasing the likelihood of at least a temporary price bounce.

Bearish RSI Divergence

When RSI shows a lower peak while price continues rising, it's bearish divergence. This indicates that upward strength is fading, suggesting a potential price drop.

Hidden Divergence: Capitalizing on Temporary Price Movements

This divergence form appears mainly in stocks with clear upward or downward trends. Hidden divergence emerges when price temporarily drops in an uptrend or temporarily bounces in a downtrend.

Remember - technical analysis and indicators don't guarantee success. Trading solely based on one indicator is the fastest way to lose money! Always trade with the long-term trend and pay attention to price behavior.

Chart patterns appearing simultaneously with indicator signals, candlestick formations, and support/resistance levels are important confirming signals that can significantly increase the reliability of your trading setups. Quality of signals matters more than quantity.

Develop a trading plan and stick to it! Determine your entry and stop loss points beforehand. Capital protection should always be your priority.

Only those who can properly manage losing positions and ensure losses remain small can succeed long-term. Five consecutive losses totaling 1% of capital isn't catastrophic, but a few individual positions leading to several percent portfolio loss is!
