108 Lessons on Trading Crypto & Stocks

Cultural Note: The original Chinese title is 纵横折叠教你炒币炒股108课 (Zongheng Zhedie jiāo nǐ chǎo bì chǎo gǔ 108 kè), meaning “Folding Dimensions teaches you to trade crypto and stocks — 108 lessons.” This is the most structured teaching format in the entire series.

This is the most systematic teaching in the Folding Dimensions series: 108 lessons distilled from years of real combat experience, organized into a curriculum that progresses from beginner concepts to advanced market reading.

Curriculum Philosophy

The 108 Lessons follow a specific pedagogical principle: each lesson is self-contained but interconnected. You don’t need to complete Lesson 1 before starting Lesson 5, but the deeper understanding comes from seeing how all 108 lessons form a coherent system.

Key Lesson Categories

Foundation Lessons (1–30):

• What is a trading system and why you need one
• Stop-loss as faith, not strategy
• Position sizing: the 2% rule
• Market structure: cores, deviations, propulsion
• The 5MA principle across timeframes

Intermediate Lessons (31–70):

• Reading the 5MA “gold line” on multiple timeframes
• Vertical vs. overlapping deviations
• When propulsion shifts from one timeframe to another
• The relationship between volume, price, and structure
• Identifying the “driving” timeframe

Advanced Lessons (71–108):

• The art of folding: reducing complex charts to key structural points
• When to enter, when to wait, when to exit
• The psychological architecture of execution
• The hierarchy of market participants
• The ultimate simplicity: one rule is enough

The 5MA as Universal Principle

The most important technical concept in the 108 Lessons is the 5-period moving average principle:

All propulsion in markets follows a 5MA on some timeframe.

This is not a technical indicator claim — it’s a structural observation about how human attention works. Markets move because humans move, and humans move in groups of minimum consensus. The 5MA captures this minimum consensus threshold.

Three verification methods:

1. Current 5MA vs. current close — Is the close price maintaining the 5MA, or breaking it?
2. Sub-timeframe 5MA vs. 20MA — When price reverses off the current 5MA, check if the sub-timeframe’s 5MA and 20MA still have room for continuation.
3. Volume and deviation at sub-levels — The health of a propulsion cycle is expressed by the volume-price relationship of its driving sub-timeframe.
