In my 8 years trading crypto, this is the most profitable indicator I've used

I started with $500 and reached financial freedom.

Play this right and you can change your life.

Full strategy (Updated): 

Moving Averages are my best indicators for trading.

This is how I catch uptrends, downtrends, and trend reversals early. It's also how I've made most of my money trading.

Let's dive into my strategy:

But first, what is a Moving Average?

A moving average is a line that shows the average price of a coin/ asset over a specific period.

There are 2 main types: 

I use Simple Moving Averages in my trading.

Here are my settings:
Lower time frames: 7ma [Grey, thinnest]
Medium time frames: 30ma [Blue, medium thickness]
Higher time frames: 100ma [Black, thickest]

These MAs help me track short, medium, and long-term trends. 

When price is in an uptrend, I look for these criteria to enter longs:

-Moving Averages fanned out
-7ma above 30ma
-30ma above 100ma

Here's what my ideal setup looks like: 

The opposite applies when the market is in a downtrend:

-Moving averages fanned out
-7ma below 30 ma
-30 ma below 100ma

This is where I catch major shorts on big market dumps by shorting support. For example:

I also use moving averages to anticipate trend reversals to exit trades perfectly.

Example:
-In uptrends, I look for a 7ma crossing below the 30ma for a trend to flip from bullish to neutral

-In downtrends, a 7ma cross above the 30ma means a weakening downtrend. 

Knowing when a trend reverses helps you

-Stay protected against major dumps
-Take profits before trends change direction

This is how I've consistently maintained profitability over the last 8 years.

Moving averages can also be used as dynamic support or resistance in trending markets

A moving average can be used as support/ resistance or as a confluence for HTF trading levels.

The stronger the trend, the likelier the moving averages are to hold.

why full time trading is destroying you 👇

one of my students recently asked me:

"why shouldn't I quit my job and trade full time, when that's what you did?"

It was a valid point.

When I first made $500+ on single a trade in 2018, I traded 24/7. So much that I gave myself insomnia for years.

I made lots of money, but now I realise that was a trap.

When you're not profitable, it feels like you're drowning. You're just trying to get to the surface so you can breathe.

I know the feeling:
I used to lock myself in my room for weeks, obsessing over my system, hoping it would finally click.

But there's an easier way to win

When you spend all your time trading, your entire identity becomes trading.

Your self-worth is tied to your P/L.

When you make money, your ego inflates, and you overtrade.
When you lose money, your self-worth collapses, and you revenge trade.

Either way, you make mistakes.

I used to think the charts were supposed to be an emotional rollercoaster, that only the strongest could navigate.

Now I know the biggest trait for when you've become an advanced trader is when trading starts to become boring.

That's when you've "made it"

Now, my best trades are cold, stoic and completely detached from my P/L.

I'm entirely focused on the execution of my rules and remaining emotionally bulletproof.

All profitable traders I know operate the same way too.

They have eventful lives outside of trading.

They read, take care of their health, spend time with loved ones, and pursue other interests.

Many of them even still have full or part-time jobs, and this is actually a superpower.

The beauty of having a part-time or full-time job around your trading is,

-It forces your identity to detach from trading
-It reduces your financial dependency on P/L

These are far more valuable than the extra hours you could spend trading full-time, especially at the start.

If you're struggling to make trading work right now, the answer isn't to go all in.

Ironically, it's to care a little less.

Stop focusing on 'making $500 a day'

Start focusing on doing the things daily that will lead to the destination:

Show up daily.

Study.
Journal.
Trade.
Review.
Improve.

That's it.

To get you closer to being a profitable trader, 

Use the same strategies that helped me become financially free.

I spoke to 200+ unprofitable traders and found the worst-performing trade setups.

Remove these from your trading, and your PnL will skyrocket.

Full breakdown + PDF Download:

1. Mean Reversion Longs In a Downtrend

People try to long the market/ catch a reversal/ bounce without any clear sign of reversal or bottom formation.

Price Characteristic: Steady downtrend with no sign of chop/ slowing down, or showing a reaction at a key level.

Example:

In this SOL chart, the price was in a steady downtrend as it approached many LTF support/resistance levels.

Trying to short this without clear exhaustion means losing money on every attempt. 

What to do instead:

In a trending market, it's better to;
-Trade momentum shorts on key support level breakdowns
-Trade mean reversion shorts on rejections of resistance levels

Do this until the trend reverses with a clear structure shift

2. Volume Misalignment Momentum

Traders don't understand how to use Volume and get wiped out by entering on fakeouts.

Volume Characteristic: Choppy/ low, steady volume in a sideways market often means random volume spikes are fakeouts and real momentum.

Example:

Here, price tried to break down at a key support level, but the volume spike was random and met with no follow-through selling or a steady increase leading to the breakdown

This was an indication that the trigger was false and the price will not continue to break down 

What to do instead:

Avoid trading random breakout spikes in low-volume chop.

If you have a mean reversion strategy, watch for a spike without follow-through and use that as a trigger to fade the move.

Journal this scenario before applying on live trading.

3. Shorting Overbought RSI

Many traders think an “Overbought” RSI is a signal in itself to take a short trade. This is wrong, and the actual signal has a lot more nuance to it.

RSI Characteristics: In the overbought area (70 and above), and price is likely in an uptrend.

Example:

Traders will use the oversold RSI in confluence with a key level to short the market and lose money.

Most traders do this without a sign of exhaustion and end up losing major profits. 

What to do instead:

Don’t blindly short an overbought RSI in an uptrend as it often signals strength, not weakness.

Only short if the price starts to chop, volume confirms a shift, and the trend breaks

Here's a cheat sheet for RSI+ Price-based confirmations: 

Bonus:

Always use market structure as the core motivator for any price bias you have in the market.

False beliefs like “You need to short resistance” are not entirely true, and traders always miss nuance in advice like this, then end up losing money.
