Is contract trading always losing money? It largely stems from not being systematic enough in selecting coins and timing entries. I have gradually refined a trading process, with the core idea of setting the monthly trend direction and precise daily entries, which I share here for your reference.
【Step 1: Initial Screening of Selected Coins】
Focus on coins that have risen significantly within the past 11 days. But be especially cautious of coins that have fallen for more than 3 consecutive days—this often indicates that funds have already taken profits at the top, and following the trend in can easily lead to being trapped.
【Step 2: Confirm the Trend on the Monthly Chart】
Switch the candlestick chart to the monthly level, and only select coins where the MACD shows a bullish crossover. Establishing this higher-level consensus ensures that subsequent operations have a higher probability of success. Many people overlook this step and jump in and out on the daily chart, which is like building a house without a foundation.
【Step 3: Precise Entry on the Daily Chart】
Switch to the daily chart and focus on the 60-day moving average. When the price pulls back near the 60 MA and a volume spike appears, it’s a good time to heavily allocate. Simple and effective—avoid overcomplicating.
【Step 4: Exit Discipline, Three Key Points】
① When gains exceed 30%, sell one-third to lock in profits;
② When gains exceed 50%, reduce another one-third of the position;
③ The most critical—on the day after buying, if the price directly falls below the 60-day moving average, you must decisively close the position. Do not hold onto hope.
This method remains relatively stable because the dual confirmation of the monthly and daily charts reduces the chance of false signals. Falling below the 60 MA isn’t very common, but risk control is always the top priority. Even if you sell early occasionally, you can buy back when the conditions are right again—don’t let emotions dictate your actions.
Ultimately, the difficulty in making money isn’t in theory but in execution. A reliable trading system is the best guarantee for profitability.
