Studied K-line charts, how should your first 1 million be earned?

Why look at 4-hour, 1-hour, and 15-minute K-line charts?
Many people in the crypto world keep falling into traps; the problem lies in focusing on only one cycle.

Today, I will share my commonly used multi-cycle K-line trading method: three simple steps—grasp the trend, find entry points, and choose the right timing.

1. 4-hour K-line: Determines your main direction—long or short
This cycle is long enough to filter out short-term noise and clearly see the trend:
• Uptrend: High points and low points rise in sync → buy on dips
• Downtrend: High points and low points decrease in sync → short on rebounds
• Sideways consolidation: Price repeatedly moves within a range, prone to false signals; frequent trading is not recommended

Remember: Trading with the trend increases win rate; against the trend only loses money.

2. 1-hour K-line: Used to define zones and find key levels
Once the main trend is confirmed, the 1-hour chart helps identify support/resistance:
• Approaching trend lines, moving averages, previous lows—potential entry points
• Near previous highs, important resistance, or top formations—consider taking profits or reducing positions

3. 15-minute K-line: Only for the final “fire” action
This cycle is dedicated to finding entry timing, not for analyzing the trend:
• Wait for key price levels to show small-cycle reversal signals (engulfing, bottom divergence, golden cross) before acting
• Confirm volume breakout; only then is the move reliable, otherwise false signals are likely

How to coordinate multiple cycles?
1. First, determine the trend: use the 4-hour chart to decide whether to go long or short
2. Find entry zones: use the 1-hour chart to mark support or resistance areas
3. Precise entry: use the 15-minute chart to spot the final signal

Additional tips:
• If multiple cycles conflict, it’s better to stay out of the market and observe—avoid making uncertain trades
• Small-cycle fluctuations are fast; always set stop-losses to prevent being repeatedly swept out
• Combining trend, position, and timing effectively is much better than blindly guessing by staring at charts
