How To Beat The Market Using Cycles
How to Choose the Best Strategy for Your Trading Style (With Real Examples)
Good evening, wolves — it’s me again, the Strategy Master.
That random guy who showed up in your inbox… and is now slowly teaching you how to profit from the crypto market using Cycles.
If you’ve been following my work, you already know: we consistently outperform the market by applying Cycle indicators across different timeframes.
But here’s the tricky part…
There are four different strategies — and sometimes, they give conflicting Buy & Sell signals.
This might just be the most important article you’ll read this year.
I’ll break down each strategy, show you real-world Buy & Sell signals they’ve recently generated — and you will decide which one fits your style best.
1. Unified Cycle Indicator [FREE]
The Unified Cycle Indicator reveals the overall market condition for any coin and highlights entry points when a coin is overbought or oversold on the 1-Day and 1-Week Cycles. It’s a solid strategy for long-term buying decisions.
Example:
$VIRTUAL had two Buy signals in late February and early March at $1.01 and $0.67, and two more in May at $2.05 and $2.01.
If you invested $1,000 in both Buy zones and sold on the Sell signals, you would’ve made 111% and 202% profits — a serious capital boost.

2. Long-Term Strategy
Similar to Unified Cycles — but with 2 more indicators
This one builds on the Unified Cycle Indicator and adds two more layers: the 3-Day Cycle and 2-Week Cycle. It adds more nuance and precision for entry and exit points.
The 2-Week Cycle reveals the broader market trend. If it’s pointing down, I generally avoid the market — or stick to short-term trades only.
A smart approach (if 2 week is falling):
Enter when the 3-Day or 1-Week is rising and the 1-Day is below 20.
Exit when the 1-Day or 3-Day hits above 80.
Strategy at a glance:
Timeframe: 12-hour
Key Cycles: 1-Day, 1-Week, 3-Day & 2-Week

3. Small-Timeframe Strategy
Unlike the long-term strategies, this one delivers precise Buy & Sell signals. The trend is driven by the 3-Day Cycle, instead of the 1-Week (though that still helps).
We ignore the 2-Week Cycle here and focus on this rule:
Buy: When 12-hour or 8-hour Cycle and 4-hour or 2-hour Cycle are below 20.
Sell:
On 12-hour Cycle top (if 3-Day is rising)
Or 4-hour Cycle top (if 3-Day is falling)
Only if 2-hour Cycle is falling (don’t sell on a rising 2-hour)
Even on slow movers like $POL, this strategy had 6 wins out of 7 trades.
Strategy at a glance:
Timeframe: 2-hour
Key Cycles: 12-hour, 4-hour, and 2-hour
Signals per month (per coin): ~3

4. Short-Timeframe Strategy (30-Min Strategy)
This one can be extremely profitable — if you use it correctly.
Typically, you Buy when the 2-hour Cycle is below 20 and the 30-min or 1-hour Cycle starts rising from near 20.
Buy signals appear almost every other day — but not all are worth taking.
Example:
In the chart (top-left), we saw 3 false Buy signals, followed by one very profitable one.
Avoid false signals:
If larger Cycles (12h, 4h, 3-Day) are falling and still above ~40, the downside risk is high.
Ideal Buy: When larger Cycles are near 20 and rising — that’s your green light.
Profit potential:
Average trade: 2–3%
With 3x–4x leverage: 10%+
I trade this strategy daily, focusing on high market cap coins only.
Strategy at a glance:
Timeframe: 30 minutes
Key Cycles: 2-hour, 1-hour, 30-minute
Signals per week (per coin): ~3

Conclusions
Each Cycle Strategy has its own risk-reward profile.
The long-term strategies are low-maintenance — perfect if you want to check charts just 2–3 hours per week.
But the 30-Min Strategy offers the highest upside if executed well.
For most investors looking to beat the market, the Small-Timeframe Strategy gives the best risk-to-reward ratio.
