Crypto 24/7

Crypto never closes. This playbook adds structure so you don't trade every hour of the day.

When to use it#

• You trade major crypto pairs.
• You want rules for a market that's open on weekends.

Settings#

Anything not listed stays on its default. See the Full Settings Reference for every option.

Step by step#

1. 1
   Pick fixed times to check charts

   For example morning and evening. Ignore the rest.
2. 2
   Use the higher timeframe rows

   Crypto moves fast. Trading with the 4H and Daily trend reduces whipsaws.
3. 3
   Watch the Trend Cloud thickness

   A thinning cloud warns that a flip may be close.

Managing the trade#

• Volatility is high. Size down and let the wider Conservative stop do its job.
• Weekend liquidity is thinner. Some traders avoid opening trades then.

When to skip it#

• The Market row reads choppy.
• Liquidity is thin (late weekends, holidays).

Common mistakes#

• Using forex-sized risk on a far more volatile market.
• Checking charts all day and night.
