AI Summary

Sergey, a trader from the SRK Crypto channel, presents a breakout trading strategy for Bybit futures that he claims will remain relevant in 2026. The approach is based on timeless market structure rather than new indicators, combining coin selection by growth and volume, multi-timeframe technical analysis, and strict risk management.

[00:02]
Market psychology is eternal

Hedge funds update algorithms and volatility changes, but people's psychology remains the same. A strategy based on market structure survives all cycles.

[00:16]
Breakout strategy reflects market phases

The strategy works because it follows the natural market cycle: accumulation, momentum, correction, continuation. Adapt old logic with volume filters, quick profit-taking, and multi-timeframe analysis.

[01:40]
Half of trading is asset selection

Choose an asset that reliably shows volume, volatility, and structure. The trader uses Bybit for spot, futures, copy trading, bots, and other tools.

[03:02]
Filter coins by 24-hour growth

In Bybit futures, use the filter to sort by 24-hour growth. Top growth varies daily — from 44% to over 100% — so patience is required.

[03:33]
Volume filter: $50M minimum

A daily volume of around $50 million is acceptable; ideally $100 million or higher. Low-volume coins are risky and lack liquidity.

[04:58]
Analyze the asset's history

Check the daily chart to see if the coin moves technically with clear trends. Coins with no history or random spikes should be avoided.

[07:25]
Avoid low-liquidity coins

A coin with $1 million daily volume shows constant tails and no structure. It is not suitable for trading.

[08:40]
Start with higher timeframes

Analyze the 4-hour chart to identify key levels, then move to the 1-hour and 15-minute charts for confirmation.

[10:28]
Enter on the retest after a breakout

Wait for an impulse breakout on increasing volumes, then enter on the retest. Fibonacci levels can help confirm the correction.

[11:14]
Risk management: 1% risk, 3% target

On a $1,000 deposit, the stop-loss is $10 (1%) and the take-profit is $30 (3%). This standard risk-reward ratio allows you to survive losing streaks.

[13:45]
Win rate of 30-40% is enough

The goal is not to win every trade but to achieve 30-40% positive trades, which is profitable over the long term with a 1:3 risk-reward ratio.

[18:06]
Yesterday's session result

With a $1,000 deposit, four trades (two losses of $10, two wins of $30) produced a net profit of $40 per trading session.

[18:51]
Manage the open trade

Move the stop-loss to breakeven once the trade is in profit, and trail the take-profit to the next level if the higher timeframe outlook is strong.

The strategy is simple and repeatable: pick high-volume coins from the top gainers, find a well-traded level, wait for a volume-backed breakout, enter on the retest, and manage risk with a 1:3 reward ratio. Consistency and patience matter more than a large deposit.

💡 Key Takeaways

💡

Market structure is constant

The strategy relies on timeless market psychology rather than changing indicators, making it adaptable to future cycles.

00:02
🔧

Volume is the primary filter

A simple $50M daily volume threshold eliminates illiquid coins and improves the probability of a clean breakout.

03:33
🔧

Enter on the retest, not the breakout

Waiting for the retest after a volume-backed breakout reduces false entries and improves the risk-reward ratio.

10:43
⚖️

Risk 1% per trade

With a 1:3 risk-reward ratio, even a 30-40% win rate can be profitable over time.

11:14
💡

Consistency beats deposit size

A $1,000 account can generate $40 per session with disciplined risk management, proving that process matters more than capital.

[00:02] change cycles within a year. Hedge funds can update their algorithms, volatility changes, and interest in the script grows. But people's psychology remains the same . That's why today we'll be talking about a strategy that has survived all

[00:16] the cycles and still works because it's based on market structure. I'll show you how to make money trading BBIT using something that will still work in 2026. [music] My name is Sergey. I am the author of the SRK Crypto channel, a trader and

[00:31] Let's go. [music] Also, guys, don't forget that I don't give financial advice in my videos. The risks are on each of us, and each of us is responsible for our own successes and failures . Therefore, we must

[00:43] think and make informed decisions. The world of trading does not stand still, but the principles of the market are eternal. While some are chasing new AI indicators, major players are still making money on old laws, impulses, and

[00:57] liquidity. The market is cyclical. Crypto is returning to structural trends again. Breakouts and impulses are once again becoming the most predictable entry points. Bybit crypto exchange is a platform where real

[01:11] volumes, liquidity, and pumps are concentrated. [music] A breakout strategy works because it reflects the natural phase of the market: accumulation, momentum, correction, continuation. The main thing is not to look for novelty, but to adapt old

[01:25] logic to current conditions. Volume filters, quick profit-taking, and multi-timeframe analysis. Now I'll show you how to put this strategy together into a simple system. Half of your trading is choosing the right

[01:40] asset, the one that reliably demonstrates volume, volatility, structure and ultimately gives you the maximum chance of taking profit. As I already said, I trade on the Bybit crypto exchange. This is the top crypto exchange in the world. There is a convenient

[01:53] trading terminal, spot futures trading. A variety of tools for earning money: Spot X, primarketeet, trading, copy trading, trading bots. You can open a crypto deposit in the BKing EORN section. You can also open a

[02:09] payment card for yourself, just like a bank card. Only here you can pay for purchases with cryptocurrency. After registration, we complete verification in the Buy Cryptocurrency P2P Trading section. You can

[02:21] top up your balance using a bank card or any other payment system. I'll leave a link welcome bonuses in the description below the video. Don't miss your

[02:33] chance. And if you don’t understand something, go to the channel, playlists. There is a whole playlist of bybit bybit training for beginners here. In this playlist, you'll find answers to almost all your questions about the Bybit crypto exchange. It also

[02:47] discusses numerous ways to make money on this crypto exchange. Go to the Bybit crypto exchange and open the trading section. Today we are discussing futures. You can trade on spot using the same principle . Open the futures section. The

[03:02] choice of coin. We point [music] here at the three stripes. We have a filter here at the three stripes. We have a filter by growth in 24 hours. Click here. We see that our coins are being filtered. The top growth today is only up 44%.

[03:18] Maximum growth will vary on different days . For example, yesterday I traded, today I will show yesterday’s transactions. Here at the top there was a coin that gave more than 100%. The market is volatile on every day , so this needs to be taken into account.

[03:33] If nothing is shooting today, there are no good options at the top by growth, this does not mean that they will not appear tomorrow. Therefore, you need to understand this and be able to wait. Therefore, you need to understand this and be able to wait. Well, in principle, 44% growth, 45, that’s already

[03:47] not bad. Next we look at daily volumes. As we can see, this coin has a daily volume of 85 million. Not a bad indicator. At around 50 million, you can already consider the coin

[03:59] . Ideally, of course, 100 and higher, but, as we can see, the market doesn’t give us such volumes every day. We open this banana coin. I already have a deal hanging here. I opened it just before recording the video, literally a few

[04:14] minutes before. This happens often. Naturally, it is important not to rush. It is not always possible to find this trading situation right away. You shouldn't just jump in at random, that is, by selecting a coin. Let's take this thought to the end. We take the top coins based on growth, but we

[04:28] also pay attention to volume. The first two coins have 85 million daily volume, 91 million daily volume. This is already not bad. We can consider some situations . The third coin, as we see, has only 28 million. Let's

[04:43] open it and evaluate how the coin moves. Yes, the daily volumes here are small, but this does not mean that in an hour, for example, in two hours, they will not increase exponentially. It is very important to look not only at the percentage growth, but also at the daily

[04:58] volumes. Additionally, we analyze the nature [music] of the asset's behavior. That is, we estimate based on history. If a coin has a story, that's awesome. of this coin. It's a big story if we switch to the daily chart, that is,

[05:11] look at the light. She appeared with us back in 1923. Of course, we start our analysis with the upper timeframes. Let's look at what happened on our daily chart and see how adequately the coin is moving. That is, as we can see, there are

[05:25] clear, visible trends here. Here, don’t forget to switch to Trading View mode, or simply select the given coin. We take its name, copy it, and go to Trading View. This is a top platform for

[05:39] technical analysis. That is, we open transactions on Baybet. Trading View makes it easy to create a Watchlist, conduct technical analysis, set alerts, use a market simulator, and practice trading on history. There are many

[05:53] different indicators here, a trader's paradise of space. I'll leave the registration link in the description below the video. Let's throw this coin onto the sheet of paper. Click here and enter our name. [music] This coin is a

[06:06] Perpual contract, that is, it is a futures contract. Click on it. That's it, the coin has opened. Next Altw. [music] A coin fell on our leaf. And now we can work with it. Let's open the daily chart. Here I already have

[06:20] some levels drawn. We delete. And we watch how the coin moves. Quite technical. During the daytime, some kind of ascending corridor was visible. One, two, three, four touches. There is no chaos here . Let's see further. Our

[06:36] coin is again drawing some good trends. Clear. Impulse, correction. Impulse, correction. You can keep it on your watchlist. Plus we see that volumes have appeared here . Of course, we pay attention, this volume, this extreme column,

[06:50] tells us that money is pouring into the coin, some movement has begun in the coin , we can leave it and see what happens next. Even while we were dismantling it, we saw that the daily volume had already increased. There were, I

[07:02] we saw that the daily volume had already increased. There were, I think, 28 million, now there are 30. They can easily disperse it now. This also needs to be understood. Small volume. That is, if it is below 50 million, this does not mean that we cannot consider this coin.

[07:15] Of course, it's a different matter when we have, for example, coins with volume at the top here. Let's look at the opposite example. What coins, [music] for example, it would not be worth taking. 1 million daily volume. We open the watch. Even the daily

[07:30] timeframe. Here we already see some strange spires. The coin has no history. We cannot verify the nature of its movement. Let's move on to an hour. Here we also see constant tails. The coin often treads somewhere sideways. That

[07:44] is, there is no volume in the coin, no liquidity. She throws it around randomly during the fifteen-minute period, for example. This will be most visible. For comparison, let's take a look. We constantly see some kind of tails, small candles,

[07:58] marking time, as if it is trying to draw something, but there are no adequate trends or normal movements visible here. Let's go back to the same coin super and move on to fifteen minutes. Here we

[08:10] see, firstly, that good volumes are coming in and the movement is purposeful upwards. This coin looks more suitable for trading, while a coin with a million daily volume, well, naturally, here the volumes are lying on

[08:25] the floor, the chart does not move anywhere, this, of course, will not work for trading. So, at the top of the list of growth we have bananas. And let's take a look at it on Trading View. We move [music] initially to 4 o'clock. Let's start our analysis with the upper

[08:40] timeframe. Here, as we see earlier, we had a level forming on the four-hour timeframe . That is, we have an extreme and previously the most extreme, but it was from this point that a good drain began. Then we spiked this level,

[08:55] and the price immediately rolled to the base where this whole pump started. In the current situation, we have again approached this zone, and here it is already important to analyze the situation on the spot, that is, whether the price is ready to break through this

[09:11] resistance zone. To do this, we can switch to the hourly timeframe and take a closer look at the situation. We see that the coin has volumes, it moves predictably, and some level is drawn. We continued on , took off, made corrections, and

[09:26] moved on. The level has appeared again and we have broken through. went higher. That is, with a greater degree of probability, in the current situation we can count on such a movement. Here it is important to find a good traded level and enter its

[09:41] breakout technically. Therefore, we will go down to the fifteen-minute time frame and analyze the basis for entering the current position, which is now open, what other details. First, we see the red levels that we drew on the

[09:58] four-hour timeframe. [music] Yes, the price came in, pricked the first level. This is already, in principle, an entire zone, and it has merged. But we understand that they are trying to develop the movements further. That is, the price again pricks this zone, even

[10:13] after such a prick, it does not merge down like a stone, [music] but continues to wander around the level. That is, in this situation, we generally have the prospect of breaking through the [music] zone from higher timeframes. Next we can use some

[10:28] trend channels. We have an inclined level formed from one touch, a second, a third. When I opened the chart today before recording the video, [music] there was just a breakout happening here, that is, this stick flew out. Please note that

[10:43] if the breakout occurred on increasing volumes, then the breakout was true. And on the rollback I set a limit level opposite the breakout of the inclined level. Here we see that she took the deal with precision . If we throw in Fibonacci for

[10:59] this impulse, it will also be an interesting situation. The price corrected to exactly zero level five. Stop. I hid the code for the nearest good extremum. And the profit potential is at the beginning of our slope. Everything is like by the book. Now to

[11:14] risk management. What was the amount involved in the deal and other details. [music] We have a simulated $1,000 deposit here . A frequently asked question is what deposit should be allocated for [music] trading. It is important to understand that this

[11:28] amount should be comfortable for you. If you're just starting to test a strategy, of course, it's worth trying it out first, perhaps even on a demo account. On Bybit there is a demotray in the tools section. This is a sandbox for the

[11:42] beginning trader. To practice, to work out some of my strategies, [music] to test. It’s also a simple matter of practicing how to quickly market orders, set [music] stop-losses and take-profits, and learn how to

[11:56] do all of this. Next, we move on to real trading and take an amount that is comfortable for us, so that it does not put psychological pressure on us. The important thing here is not to earn all the money at once, but to achieve a stable result. day

[12:11] by day, week by week, month by month. Once you feel confident in your trading, you can, of course, increase your deposit. In this situation, we have a simulated trading deposit of $1,000. For example, for

[12:23] me, such a deposit is comfortable for practicing some new strategies. And the stop-loss, as we can see, is $10, that is, 1% of $1,000. And the take profit is $30 - this is 3% of the entire

[12:37] deposit. This is standard, basic risk management in trading, so that even when the market is going against us, often with a series of losing trades, we can sit it out calmly, not lose our deposit, and wait for our series of

[12:51] winning trades. So, guys, our analysis is, as always, as detailed as possible. Don't forget to like, leave a comment, subscribe also subscribe to my Telegram channel. There I post the

[13:04] latest news from the world of cryptocurrency, various bonuses, promotions. The link will be in the description under the video. But we continue. The strategy is simple and clear. There is no need to think of anything extra here. We simply take coins from the top by

[13:17] height. Naturally, you can take the top hit. The meaning is the same. We will not be going long. Long, when we earn on growth, and short. Short when we make money on the fall. We pay attention to the volumes and the

[13:30] behavior of the coin throughout history. We find a well-traded level, wait for an impulse breakout based on volumes, and enter a trade on correction. every such transaction will work out. Even when we find a

[13:45] 100% guarantee that we'll definitely take profit. Our goal is 30-40 percent positive transactions, which already allows us to earn money over the long term. So let's take a look at the trades I made yesterday and see

[14:00] how much you can earn in one trading session with a $1,000 deposit guys, that for automated trading, so that you don't have to do anything manually, don't have to look for any deals, so that everything happens automatically, I

[14:15] use the Dragonfly trading robot. The bot trades for me, I monitor it. A tool proven over the years. There is a whole playlist about him on the channel. [music] of this trading robot in the description below the video. For those

[14:29] interested, the link is in the description. So, the first coin we have for review is XON. As you can see, I traded through Trading View. Here we have marks where I entered into trades. Now let's take a closer look at the conditions. Yesterday,

[14:42] for some reason, I was in a short mood. I went to BBIT, opened the markets section, and looked at the market sentiment. Yesterday, I think it was 15 here, so I decided to try to pull on shorts. And, in principle, I pulled out several good ones.

[14:56] So, the first [music] situation. We see arrows here. These are entry points, exit points, the red arrow is the entry to short. Tried to jump in from the four-hour level. As we can see, we have a clear pump here. Our coin

[15:11] showed practically no signs of life at all. Then there was a sharp increase in volumes and the price went up. And basically here I found a good four-hour level, the first, the second, and tried to short them.

[15:25] Let's move on to fifteen minutes. As we can see, the first short was unsuccessful. Here is a red arrow, the blue one immediately hit the stop-loss. That is, the price flew further, but just hit the next level . And from this level we see a

[15:38] red arrow, there was a short entry, the blue one pulled out the profit. I could have dragged it out further, but the risk-reward ratio I used here was 1 to 3. That is how the position looked. Entry from the level, stop loss behind the level and

[15:54] Entry from the level, stop loss behind the level and profit pulled out 1: tm. Next coin vers. Here the first entry was long. He was probably trying to pull some kind of breakthrough. Yes, here initially on the five-minute timeline we had such a slanted

[16:07] level. Lots of touches. One, two, three, four. We're almost there. The fifth one is a clear breakout on volumes, the code is for correction, but the price was pulled down. This is a

[16:19] clear illustration of why we analyze our previous transactions. If we look, the inclined level was not drawn along a downward trend. At the moment of entering the trade, we had a figure here that

[16:35] looked more like a key. Of course, there was a good chance of it working out, but what we analyzed on the banana coin, here we already have a clearly visible downward structure and its breakdown. That is, in this deal, a more interesting entry would have been even

[16:50] from the support level. We had one touch, a second, and somewhere in this area it would have been more successful to go long . It would be easy to take away a good move. The next trade on this coin was short. Here

[17:05] we have a slightly more global picture. Let's delete this situation from us. All. And the basis for a short position. Firstly, we had a sloping level, as we can see, of support. One touch, two touches, three touches. The level has

[17:21] been broken. A small accumulation and breakout has formed in this zone . And during the accumulation retest, you can even remove this accumulation. At this point we can level. We got a breakthrough of the inclined level, then the horizontal one, and on

[17:37] the retest on the opposite side the red arrow indicates our entry into a short position, the blue one indicates our exit from the position. The risk-reward ratio was also one to three. Mm, I'll take a little more to cover the commission. For example, we have a stop-loss of $10, and a

[17:52] For example, we have a stop-loss of $10, and a take-profit of $32 with some change for a banana, to cover the exchange commission. In total, we have analyzed four of yesterday’s transactions. Risk-reward ratio 1 ktm deposit -

[18:06] 1,000 dollars, two stop-losses of 10 dollars, two take-profits of 30 dollars. That is, a net profit of $40 per trading session. Our banana coin is still suffering. Today is my first deal that I actually

[18:21] managed to open before the video. As we can see, you don't need to have a large deposit to make good money. What is important is a system, a strategy, and the ability to wait. And the most important thing, in my opinion, is to be resourceful. It's better

[18:36] trade. It could be an hour or two trading session, rather than trying to sit and torture the chart all day. I trade directly from Trading View, so we can see that I have a stop loss, take profit, and position here. For example, I can

[18:51] now move the deal to breakeven. I just take a stop-loss and pull it up. Here it is important not to forget to confirm the button click. Connecting Bibbit to Trading View is simple. Open a new tab and expand the menu at the bottom. We see that

[19:06] we have the ability to connect to Bybit. Click here to connect Trading View and Bybit. Next we can see a trade button appear. From here, set your positions. Here everything is as convenient as possible. For those interested in

[19:20] learning more about trading on Trading View, check out the playlists channel. Here, firstly, we have already compiled a trading training playlist for trading from scratch, a solid foundation for confident trading. There you will also find a

[19:33] separate video tutorial on Trading view. And our banana finally started moving towards take profit. In general, at such moments you can already make a decision to pull. For example, we move the stop loss to breakeven and drag it above the

[19:47] entry point. As I said, don't forget to confirm. That's it, the deal is breakeven. If the position closes, the price will now squeeze down, [music] we will get a small profit, a buck and a half. And pull. Why am I talking about

[20:01] pulling now? Because we have a good outlook on the four-hour time frame . We have already marked the zone into which the price has flown. That is, if there is a breakout of this zone now, which we have based on

[20:16] one touch, a second touch, and a third touch directly into the zone, then, as we see, the price can at least fly to the next levels of higher timeframes. There's a whole cluster going on here too, but the prospects are quite good, so it's a

[20:31] good example of how to sit and pull during a transaction. Moved stop loss without loss. Profit can be pulled higher to the next level. Again, don't forget to confirm, but again, it's not a fact that the price will reach there, so

[20:45] sometimes it's better to fix what the market gives and not tempt fate. Let's bring the take profit back. I see that our banana is just about to move there. So, guys, today we've covered the entire trading process, the

[20:59] trading system, from choosing a coin to opening a real trade. management, stop-loss, yk profit. traded bananas. If you're interested in what happened with a comment, like it, subscribe to the YouTube channel, and
