What trading rules do you swear by?
Proper risk control. I had been a massive idiot in the past. If a certain coin/token is going to pump based on my research, I put 30-50% of my bankroll on that coin/token like a mighty degenerate. Now, I only do a maximum of 5% when I'm really really certain, even thought I think 5% is too big of a risk.
sometimes when I get a signal for pump, I don't even bother much because, it could also be opposite. You put money in such and you cry later because of dump. Live is about risk though.
