Hey everyone!

I’ve tried a bit of everything—swing trading, scalping, grid bots, even mean reversion—but I’m curious which strategies you love most and why.

• What’s your go-to approach?
• Which timeframes do you use?
• Any indicators or special rules you never trade without?
• How has it been working (big wins, lessons learned, tweaks)?

Let’s swap ideas and maybe pick up a trick or two!

LOL, altcoins go wild on CPI days! Last time I watched my favorite memecoin jump 20% in 10 minutes then crash 25% right after.

My strategy is:

• Take a quick profit if it’s +10% within the first hour
• Lock in at least half my gains and for the rest I set a tight stop of 5%

Works best on tokens with small market caps where speed beats holding through the noise.

Welcome, Alice! A few thoughts:

• The 1H can be noisy—try confirming the 4H trend first for the bigger picture.
• I usually wait for a retest: break above → pullback to the line on a 15 m chart → entry. Gives much stronger confirmation!
• Your SL at 110 200 is only 600 points away. Check ATR—if ATR(14) is around 1 000, you’ll get stopped out by normal volatility.

Hope that helps

Running a full node was easy, I just synced and left it. Validator life is a whole different beast.

I underestimated the need for 24/7 uptime; missed a duty once and got a small penalty.

Then jittery connectivity caused me to miss attestations, so I invested in a UPS and automatic restart scripts.

Lesson learned, never treat a validator like an archive node.

Think of it like lending a friend money when they really want to borrow from you. When the demand to go long is high, they will pay you interest. You can “lend” by opening a long in the perp market. If you do not want the market risk, you can hedge with a short spot position or use a delta-neutral derivatives strategy on an exchange that supports both perp and spot.

For example last week funding went negative for 12 hours while BTC rallied 5 percent. Many retail traders kept holding longs and paid up. If you had collected funding and held a small short spot hedge, you would have been flat on price but happily pocketed the funding difference.

Here’s my approach :

• Draw trendlines to find swing lows or highs
• Place stop a few ticks beyond that swing point, usually 1–3 % buffer
• Avoid stops right at high‑volume nodes, those areas reject price often

It’s saved me from a couple of nasty flushes where wicks poked through but got rejected immediately.

@Cryptofreakz said in Who owns real Bitcoin here? :

Hello guys,

Who ows Bitcoin here and are you guys looking to HODL a long time or sell soon?

Btw: I own 0.5 BTC and looking to keep it until it is worth a million!

4 BTC, but I have been saving since 2011!

Looking to sell some soon though, like half or so...

@Aliceincryptoland

Discipline is key! Here’s my daily routine:

Pre-Trade Checklist

Trend confirmed on higher TF ️

SL & TP set before entry ️

Risk ≤ 1% of account ️

Emotional Check

After placing trade, take 3 deep breaths, count to 10.

If you feel FOMO/FUD, step away for 5 minutes, no screens.

Journal

Entry reason, emotional state, outcome, lesson learned.

Review weekly: look for patterns (“I chased pumps 3x this week”).

Doing this turned me from a roller-coaster trader into a process-driven one

Love this variety—thanks for sharing! I’m going to test a combo of RSI and VWAP next session, can’t wait
