There are all kinds of trading secrets circulating in the crypto world, but the truly stable methods are often surprisingly simple.

There is a trading framework that has been validated in the market for many years—by using only the daily MACD golden cross combined with daily moving average discipline, you can grasp most opportunities. No need to stare at the screen until your eyes are tired, no need to chase after hot news, just strictly follow the discipline to ride the trend.

How exactly does this method work? It’s actually just four steps.

**Step 1: The criteria for screening coins are very simple**

Look only at the daily chart, wait for the MACD to generate a golden cross. What is the most reliable signal? When the golden cross occurs above the zero line. Coins like CHZ, GIGGLE, and others can be screened out using this standard. Choosing the right starting point makes subsequent operations meaningful.

**Step 2: One daily moving average is enough**

No need for multiple moving averages intertwined. Just stick to one daily moving average—hold the coin as long as the price stays above it, and sell immediately if it breaks below. Sounds simple? You’ll realize how difficult it is when you actually execute. Especially during rebounds in a downtrend, it’s easy to be confused. But discipline is discipline—there are no exceptions.

**Step 3: Entry and exit require discipline**

Buy trigger condition: When the price breaks above the daily moving average, trading volume must also increase simultaneously. Both conditions must be met for a true entry signal. At this point, you can go all-in.

As for selling? It’s divided into three stages: when the gain exceeds 40%, sell 1/3 of the position; when it reaches 80%, sell another 1/3; and the remaining 1/3? As long as the price falls below the daily moving average, regardless of how high it has risen, close all positions. No dragging, no waiting—just exit immediately.

**Step 4: The most testing part of your mindset**

If the next day the price unexpectedly falls below the daily moving average, then no matter what the reason—good news, technical rebound, bottom reversal—it’s useless. You must immediately close the position. This step is the anchor of the entire framework.

Some people think this is too absolute? But the problem is, if you start looking for exceptions, your discipline begins to loosen. In the long run, those who stick to discipline and those relying on luck will have very different accounts.

After selling, wait for the price to rise back above the daily moving average before re-entering. The profit remains the same, just in a different cycle.

**Why is this method stable?**

Because it is entirely based on objective technical signals, not relying on news judgment, nor requiring you to predict market turning points. MACD golden cross reflects momentum change, and the daily moving average reflects the price center. Combining the two means: only participate when momentum is upward and the price is above the moving average.

Risk control is also very clear—once the breakout fails (falls below the daily moving average), stop loss immediately. No opportunity for losses to expand. The result of this approach is that, although you may not catch every bottom or top of each trend, you can secure stable profits during each wave.

This framework works for everything from BTC to various altcoins. The key is whether you dare to truly execute it. Most people understand these principles, but when it comes to execution, they start to be flexible and find reasons. The final result is that, in the same market conditions, others make money while you don’t or even lose.
