With this kind of title, have you already scrolled past it three times?
Don't rush; this time we won't talk about the myth of getting rich overnight, but about an old player who survived three rounds of bull and bear markets in Hangzhou by relying on 'stupid methods'.
He doesn't drive supercars, doesn't socialize, and even tells others that he is 'just lucky'.
But if you really believe it, you will miss the six survival guides he exchanged for real money below.
1. Rising is like climbing a mountain, falling is like jumping off a cliff? That’s the main force's 'emotional smoke bomb'.
When the market rises, you dawdle, and when it falls, you act decisively?
Don't be quick to criticize the market; this is often where smart money is secretly moving chips.
A truly strong market trend has pullbacks as gentle as giving you a chance to get on board.
And once a 'cliff-like drop + weak rebound' occurs, remember, it may not be a signal to buy the dip, but rather the main players waving goodbye to you.
2. Volume spikes at tops? You might have been deceived by classic textbooks.
'High volume at peaks = tops' is the textbook standard answer, but the market often tests you with additional questions.
I have seen too many trends accelerate amidst surging volume, and I have seen even more shrink in volume and quietly build a top.
The key to trading volume is not its size, but its continuity.
A single surge in volume at the bottom is often a test, while continuous volume is the beginning of consensus formation.
3. All technical patterns ultimately depict 'human sentiment.'
Candlestick charts are shadows of prices, while volume is a mirror of emotions.
When you are obsessed with golden crosses and dead crosses, the big players are only focused on one thing:
'Is the market shaking with greed or numb with fear now?'
Technical indicators are tools, but it's often the person using the tools who determines the outcome.
4. The state of 'nothingness': having no positions is harder than being fully invested.
He can traverse three cycles, not because he caught how many hundred-fold coins,
But it is because, during most of 2018 and 2022, he dared to hold no positions.
What is most against human nature in the cryptocurrency world is not enduring volatility, but keeping your hands still when there are 'get rich quick' stories everywhere.
Making money in a bull market relies on the trend, while making money in a bear market relies on patience.
5. Your biggest opponent has never been the market maker.
Market manipulation, crash, good news, bad news... these are all external noises.
What really determines the account numbers is your trembling hand when placing an order and your sweaty forehead during a crash.
It's the anxiety of wanting to run at the slightest rebound and the self-comfort of 'buying more if it drops again.'
The essence of trading is the war with oneself.
6. Living long is the only hard truth.
In this market, many see the right direction, but few survive to the next episode.
His 'foolish method' is actually:
Stay calm when others are frantic, pay attention when others are desperate, never treat luck as strength, and always use spare money for investments.
After ten years of traversing bull and bear markets, I increasingly feel that
The most precious thing in the cryptocurrency world is not the list of hundred-fold coins, but a set of fundamental logic that prevents you from being eliminated.
If these thoughts inspire you, feel free to follow.
