I am 38 years old this year.

Entering the market at 30, by 2023-2024, I've managed to accumulate an eight-figure asset, which is much easier than my peers in business and e-commerce.

Throughout this journey, my insight can be summed up in one sentence: trading cryptocurrencies, mindset is always greater than skills.

I've summarized my practical experiences over the years into 8 of the most useful principles:

1. BTC is the starting gun for the rhythm.

Most coins cannot escape its rhythm, and altcoins are even more so.

2. BTC and U are always inversely related.

Be cautious when U rises; it usually means BTC is falling; conversely, when BTC rises, it’s a good time to replenish U.

3. Midnight spikes are the most frequent.

Fast order sweeps often occur between 0-1 AM; placing buy and sell orders before sleep can often yield profits.

4. Watch the direction of the day between 6-8 AM.

If there’s a continuous drop in the early morning, there’s usually a low entry opportunity in the morning; conversely, if it keeps rising, it’s likely to drop during the day.

5. Pay special attention at 5 PM.

Players in the US start to become active, and the market often shows directional fluctuations during this time.

6. “Black Friday” is a reference but not a superstition.

Instead of being superstitious about holidays, one should focus on news and capital flow.

7. Don't panic if a coin with trading volume drops.

In the short term, it can take three to four days, or in the long term, one to two weeks for the chips to realign. If you can replenish, you can recover your costs faster; if not, be patient.

8. Focus on spot trading, success lies in “doing less.”

The returns from holding the same coin long-term are often much higher than frequent trading.

I bought DOGE at 0.09 and held on, it increased over 20 times.

The crypto world is cruel, but it’s also very simple.

It’s not about who trades faster, but who can endure longer and stand firm.

If you can stay calm, the market will naturally give you the answer. @K哥财经
