Many people in the crypto world fall into the same vicious cycle — the more they learn, the less they earn. Watching all kinds of indicators, theories, and news flying everywhere, but their accounts keep shrinking. My path is different. Turning 30,000 into 10 million, I’ve understood a fundamental truth: the speed of making money is inversely proportional to the number of times you take action. The more you tinker, the more you lose.



My progression path is very clear. The first stage took 2 years to turn 30,000 into 1.2 million, relying on cyclical opportunities in projects like $ZEC. The second stage sped up, turning 1.2 million into 6 million in just 1 year, catching the wave of $LUNC quite well. The final stage was the fastest — from 6 million to 10 million in only 5 months. You’ll find that in later stages, the profit per trade actually increases, while I trade less and less. This is no coincidence.

The core secret is simple: make complex things extremely simple.

I focus on one trading pattern — the “N” shape. Basically, it’s: surge vertically, retrace diagonally, then break through vertically again. When the pattern forms, I enter; when it breaks, I run. No ambiguous zones, no “maybe wait a bit,” just straightforward. Set a 2% stop loss and a 10% take profit. As long as the win rate can be maintained at 35%, mathematically, it’s a stable profit. Many people mock this method as “dumb,” because they spend all day analyzing indicators, drawing trendlines, chasing the latest news. But guess what? The smartest people lose the fastest.

My trading process is so simple I’m embarrassed to say. Every day at 9:50 AM, I open the trading app, look at the 4-hour chart, scan around — if there’s no N pattern? I shut down immediately. If there is? I set my stop loss and take profit orders, and that’s it. The whole process takes 5 minutes. What do I do with the rest of the time? Drink coffee, walk the dog, spend time with family, eat when hungry, sleep when tired. Trading doesn’t require you to stare at the screen 24/7; that only wrecks your mindset.

I keep my trading software very simple, only leaving a 20-day moving average, and I set its color very faint. Why? Because the more indicators you look at, the more confused you get, and the more unnecessary actions you want to take. I need clear signals, not a dizzying array of data.

The logic of making money and the logic of withdrawing are equally important. When my account grew from 0 to 1.2 million, my first instinct was to withdraw all the principal. Not out of greed, but to insure myself — in case the market turns bad later, at least the capital is safe. When I reached 6 million, I withdrew half to invest in funds and fixed deposits; this part of the money is considered already earned. The remaining funds continue to grow in the market. Even if the crypto market crashes completely later, my foundation is solid enough. This way, my mindset won’t be hostage to the market.

I set three strict rules for myself, and I must never relax any of them: First, don’t chase the rise. Let those eager to buy high chase; I wait until the pattern fully forms before acting. Second, don’t hold onto losing positions. If the price breaks support, I exit immediately — no luck-hunting. Third, don’t fight the market. Take profits when you’ve earned enough, never greed for the last bit.

There’s no “Holy Grail” in crypto — that’s all nonsense. There’s only a filter — filtering out impatient people, filtering out those driven by greed, leaving behind those who stick to simple methods, and naturally, they make money. Don’t always think about finding a coin that will multiply a hundred times overnight; that’s too low a probability. If you can consistently earn 10% over 20 trades, mathematically, reaching 10 million is just a matter of time.

I’ve already walked through the night; now I pass the torch to you. It’s your turn to shine.

Nice words, but it's just gambling. The N-shaped pattern, huh? I've seen people watch this thing every day, and in the end, they lose so much they have nothing left.

Hmm… That's right, that's how it is. Making money isn't about how much you understand, but about execution. I’ve also discovered this rule. This N-shaped pattern really works, but the only concern is whether you can stick with it. The number from 30,000 to 10 million, brother, are you serious? Avoiding chasing the rally is the hardest part. Watching the market take off really feels uncomfortable. Stop loss at 2%, take profit at 10%, win rate 35%… I’ve calculated this math, it’s indeed stable. I want to ask, does this method work the same way in a bear market? Right now, I’m overthinking, constantly watching indicators and news, and my account keeps losing. You nailed it on withdrawals; most people do the opposite. The 5-minute trading method sounds simple, but what about the mindset when doing it?

Hi, this logic has some substance, but... the number from 30,000 to 10 million always feels a bit off. Basically, it's a mindset issue. The more you try to make money, the more you lose. Being simple and straightforward actually helps you survive longer. I believe in the N-shaped pattern, but I'm just worried I can't be so ruthless in execution. Sticking to a 2% stop loss is really difficult; when emotions kick in, you want to hold on to the position. By the way, can your method be used in a bear market? It seems to be suitable only for specific market conditions. Making money really requires withdrawing half of it; this is a good suggestion. I think the key is not chasing the rise and not fighting the trend. It sounds simple, but actually doing it is deadly. I believe in trading 5 minutes a day, but whether it can be sustained long-term is the real question.

It looks like just a story. How exactly can it be verified?
