As a veteran who has been navigating the cryptocurrency market for 7 years, I've seen too many people rush in with dreams of 'getting rich overnight', only to chase peaks and valleys in volatile markets and end up severely doubting themselves. The truth is, trading cryptocurrency isn't about luck—I've transitioned from 'placing orders based on gut feeling' to being able to achieve stable profits. The pitfalls I've encountered could circle the exchanges three times; summarizing my 10 practical insights means that if you truly understand them, you can avoid at least 80% of the traps, saving yourself 3 years of detours!
10 practical insights, each one built on real money and experience!
Got 200,000 in funds? Don't be greedy about 'making money every day'; catching one core market trend a year is enough! Many newcomers always think about going all in and quickly entering and exiting, but forget that the cryptocurrency market is highly volatile. Leaving enough room for error is key to survival. Even if I am optimistic about an asset now, I will never fully leverage my position; after all, preserving capital is essential for waiting for the next opportunity.
Never earn money outside your understanding! Don't rush to invest real money before grasping the rules. It's advisable to first find a simulated trading tool to practice, refining your mindset and judgment—within a simulated environment, you can make countless mistakes without regret, but in real trading, one mistake could mean immediate exit, leaving no chance for recovery.
Major positive news landing? If you haven't sold on the same day, rush to sell the next day as soon as it opens high! The rule in the industry that 'good news leads to a reversal' is not just a saying. I've seen too many people clinging to the illusion of 'it can rise again', only to see it plunge after the good news, turning profits into losses, with nowhere to cry.
A week before a major holiday, reducing positions or even going flat is definitely a wise choice! Reviewing market data from the past few years, liquidity tends to weaken during holidays, and the market is likely to weaken. Instead of holding onto your positions with a sense of luck, it’s better to secure profits and relax during the holidays, which is much more comfortable than anxiously watching the market.
Mid to long-term isn't about 'holding on without movement'! The core is to keep enough cash and adhere to the rolling strategy of 'selling at highs and buying back at dips'. I used to hold onto one asset, watching it drop from a 50% profit to a 20% loss, but after switching to a rolling operation with flexible position adjustments, my returns have become more stable, avoiding deep losses.
For short-term trading, only focus on 'active assets'! Avoid markets with low trading volume and that remain stagnant for half a day! Short-term profits come from volatility; without trading volume, there's no price difference. Monitoring stagnant assets is merely a waste of time. I only select assets with consistently high trading volume and active K-line fluctuations, which directly doubles my success rate.
Market fluctuations are traceable: when the pace of decline slows, rebounds are often gradual; if a rapid decline occurs, rebounds are likely quick and fierce. Remembering this rule can help you make fewer mistakes when bottom-fishing and topping out—don't rush to bottom fish when prices are slowly falling, nor panic and cut losses during a rapid decline.
If you've made a wrong purchase, don't hold on stubbornly! Decisive stop-loss is the baseline for preserving your capital. I've seen too many people cling to the fantasy of 'what if it rebounds', holding on from a 5% loss to a 30% loss, only to be forced to cut at the lowest point. This market never lacks opportunities; what it lacks is the patience to preserve capital for those opportunities. Don't hesitate when it's time to stop-loss; recognizing mistakes in time can minimize losses.
For short-term trading, you must look at the 15-minute K-line! Combine it with the KDJ indicator to find buy and sell points, which can significantly increase the success rate of trades. When I trade short-term, I never place orders based on feelings; instead, I focus on the 15-minute K-line to observe trends, and then use the KDJ indicator to assess overbought and oversold conditions, entering and exiting with clear signals, which is far more reliable than random guessing.
Don't be greedy with cryptocurrency trading techniques! Mastering one or two strategies and sticking to them is 10 times better than following various methods just because others do. The market's 'expert strategies' are varied and overwhelming; learning this today and that tomorrow will only lead to confusion. I now focus solely on 'short-term volume + mid to long-term logic', honing these two skills to perfection, resulting in more stable profits.
In conclusion: The road to trading cryptocurrency is long, and reliable experiences can save you countless detours!
