In the year I just entered the cryptocurrency world, I stayed up every day until my eyes were bloodshot, glued to the screen for 16 hours, and by the end of the year, I was questioning life, with a wallet cleaner than my face. By the third year, I suddenly had an epiphany; I spent only 2 hours a day on 'casual trading' and managed to steadily outpace 90% of people, with my principal multiplying several times.
I call this strategy 'Retail Investor's Counterattack Three Axes', as simple as making instant noodles:
First Axe: Watch more, act less, first be an observer
In the first hour of each day, only observe, do not trade. Keep a close watch on BTC and ETH as these two directional indicators, then look at two or three familiar assets, noting down the key prices, trading volumes, and moving average positions. You will find that market intuition is developed through 'watching'—just like binge-watching a series, after a while, you naturally grasp the rhythm.
Second Axe: Strict conditions, precise entry
Only in the second hour do I consider making a move, and I must meet three conditions simultaneously before entering the market: clear trend + strict position control + pre-set stop-loss. If the market is chaotic, then stay in cash and wait. Not making random trades is itself a way of making money.
Third Axe: Daily review, turning pitfalls into paths
Spend 10 minutes each day writing a 'trading journal', documenting every mistake and pitfall you've encountered. The difference between experts and ordinary people often lies in this seemingly insignificant review—others repeatedly fall into the same pit, while you fill the pit and pave a path upwards.
The cryptocurrency world has never been a 'speed race' to see who can watch the market longer, but rather a 'marathon' to see who remains calmer and more disciplined.
With just 2 hours a day, after a year, you will not only see changes in your account numbers but also gain a 'steady' mindset. The market is always fluctuating, but you can control your own rhythm.
If you are still confused in the market and do not want to be shaken out by volatility, feel free to follow. Let's minimize pitfalls and maximize gains together, steadily moving forward.
