After eight years in the crypto world, I've seen too many people curse the market after getting liquidated. I've come to understand that most people's losses aren't due to bad luck; it's because they've backed themselves into a corner. #加密市场反弹

When I first entered the market, I also made mistakes. Seeing others making five times their investment in dog coins in just three days made me envious, and I was filled with the thought that 'missing out is worse than losing money.'

Chasing after hot altcoins and going all-in with leveraged contracts often leads to buying at the peak.

It wasn't until my account was down to just a few cents that I woke up: for small funds to survive, the key isn't 'going fast,' but 'waiting correctly.'

In a year, I caught two major upward trends, $BTC and $ETH , securing stable gains of over 30%, which is enough to beat 90% of people.

Constantly being fully invested and reacting to community news is gambling, not trading.

Too many newcomers don't even understand MA moving averages and MACD golden and dead crosses before going all-in, blindly believing in the project team's 'good news,' but forgetting the ironclad rule of the crypto world: 'buy the expectation, sell the fact.' When good news is realized, it's a signal for a dump.

My trading system has been simplified: keep 30% cash for error tolerance in the middle line, reduce positions when breaking support levels, and increase positions when stabilizing above resistance levels;

For short-term trading, I only focus on mainstream coins, using 15-minute candlesticks combined with RSI overbought and oversold signals to find entry points, and I don't even touch air coins.

Last year, before the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn't reduce my position, and BTC directly plunged below 20,000, erasing all my profits from the past six months. This lesson taught me that 'the market never tolerates luck.'

Now, when mentoring newcomers, I find that the root causes of losses are the same: either they aren't decisive with their stop-losses, or they're greedy and hold onto losing positions.

The crypto world isn't short of opportunities; what's lacking is the patience to 'wait for signals' and the execution to 'act when the time is right.'

Preserving capital comes first, then we can talk about making money; this is the true skill for survival.
