What is the easiest vicious cycle to fall into in the crypto world? It’s often not the newbies’ accounts, but those who work the hardest. Staying glued to candlestick charts every day, memorizing MACD and RSI inside out, staying up late analyzing patterns has become routine, yet the account keeps spinning in place, sometimes even experiencing margin calls.



I know a fan who is a perfect example of this. In his early days, he was a technical trader, using a full set of indicators. He would make profits and losses, but couldn’t break out of this cycle. One day, he asked me for advice, and I told him: Don’t overcomplicate trading; simplicity is the key.

What I taught him was a seemingly simple but actually very steady method—343 phased position building. The core logic is not to predict market rises or falls, but to follow your own rhythm completely.

First, allocate 30% of your funds as a foundation, only choose mainstream coins, and never go all-in. Then, reserve 40% as a flexible reserve; if the price rises, resist the urge to chase, and if it drops, add to your position according to your predetermined plan, gradually lowering your average cost. Finally, the remaining 10% is only added once the trend is truly confirmed. At the same time, use a trailing stop mechanism to let profits run on their own.

He strictly followed this framework for two years, turning an initial 200,000 into over 50 million.

Later, during a chat, he said something quite interesting: Making money isn’t really about predicting the top or bottom, but about making fewer mistakes and surviving long enough. The brilliance of this method lies in the fact that you don’t need to guess the peak or the bottom; you just need to stick to your rules during volatility.

The method itself isn’t complicated; what’s complicated is controlling those hands and resisting various temptations. In the end, the crypto world’s competition has never been about who is the smartest, but about who can stay in the game continuously.

Damn, isn't this talking about me? I work myself to death every day checking indicators and still end up losing... Should I try this 343? It really doesn't seem that complicated. Simple and straightforward is the way to go. I've suffered too many losses from overcomplicating things. The key is to survive longer; that's really how the crypto world works. I've seen so much MACD that I'm sick of it. It's better to just stick to regular dollar-cost averaging. It sounds easy, but few can really stick to it for two years. The phrase "don't predict the market" hits hard. I'm the kind of fool who guesses the top and bottom every day.

Wait, I need to sort out the transaction chain of this story. From 200,000 to over 50 million in two years? According to on-chain data, the growth of such funds can only be verified by examining the transfer records of wallet addresses... The credibility of this case is still under investigation. It somewhat resembles a typical success story narrative, which can easily be used as bait for a pump-and-dump scheme.

That hits too close to home, I'm just that fool who watches the K-line every day. Unable to hold onto the position is truly a terminal illness; 343 sounds simple but it's deadly hard to do. If you can survive this wave, you've already won. Don't think about getting rich overnight.

At the end of the day, you still have to control your hand, and that's the hardest part. 200,000 to 50 million? Just listen, but the 343 set is indeed a bit interesting. Technical indicators are useless if you don't survive long enough. Batch building positions again, taking profits again... I've heard too many stories. Knowing MACD backwards and forwards still results in losses; I've seen too many cases like that. No point in backtesting; those who truly make money have already shut up. Living longer is more valuable than being smart; this really hits home. Controlling your hand is the hardest thing of all; it's easy to say but hard to do...

Sounds like a story, 200,000 to 50 million? That number... Never mind, the key point is that the sentence really hit home. Controlling your hands is much more difficult than reading candlestick charts.
