Eight years ago, I ventured into the crypto world with the only 2,000 U my family had. No one told me that the waters here were deep enough to drown a whale. I not only lost all my money but also got a harsh lesson from my partner for my “blind operations.” But today, my account quietly holds an eight-digit number. This is not a myth, but a story of an ordinary person surviving in a crazy market using the dumbest methods.
Whale? I'm just an old sailor who knows how to row.
Many people ask me: “Where is the turning point?”
To be honest, there is no myth of getting rich overnight. Only one morning, I stared at the screen and found that my daily floating profit exceeded 200,000 U. At that moment, I didn't cheer; instead, I felt a chill down my back: what if I lose it back tomorrow? From that day on, I completely “shut myself off” from the voices of the outside world, the calls in the group, and the predictions of KOLs; I blocked everything. Trading became a lonely game of rules between me and myself.
These years have felt like rowing a rubber boat in a storm. The waves of liquidation have hit, and the dark currents of cutting losses have pulled me down, almost capsizing several times. But I know that as long as the paddle is still in hand, there is a possibility of reaching the shore.
ETH and BTC: My 'game-like' survival logic.
I have no insider information, nor did I catch the early 'golden era'. The only way is to turn trading into 'leveling up'.
BTC is my required course: it took me six years to learn not to be thrown off during its wild ups and downs.
ETH is my specialized training: I do not predict the future, I treat every fluctuation as a level and pass through it repeatedly with the same set of actions.
Sounds boring, right? But making money shouldn't be as stimulating as a casino.
6 'anti-common sense' iron laws I earned with scars.
A rally might be a trap; a drop might be an opportunity.
A sharp rise followed by a slow drop? There’s a high probability someone is quietly stocking up. A sharp rise followed by a waterfall sell-off? That's the director entering the scene holding a 'harvest begins' sign.
The rebound after a crash is the most dangerous.
A sharp drop followed by a slow rise, reminiscent of the tenderness of a scumbag before breaking up, just to make you fall deeper. A rebound enticing to buy? Remember, the market doesn't give out painkillers for free.
High-level consolidation is not rest; it's brewing.
High volume doesn't necessarily mean a drop, but prolonged low volume sideways movement is often the calm before the storm. Don't increase your position then; it's time to buckle up.
The bottom is not guessed, it's 'tested'.
A sudden increase in volume may be a false move, but 'consolidation with low volume + subsequent high volume' is the market secretly telling you the entry code.
Volume is the market's breathing sound.
Low volume = the market is dozing, high volume = capital is moving. Don't just look at the price, listen to the rhythm of volume; it's more useful than listening to any expert.
Experts win by 'daring not to play'.
Being in cash is not cowardice; it is strategic waiting; stopping losses is not losing, it is a ticket to the next episode. Greed is called recklessness, patience is the hunter.
Finally, let’s talk plainly.
The cruelest truth in the crypto world is: most people are not defeated by the market, but driven mad by their own scripts. You always think about 'financial freedom', but the market just wants to teach you 'how to survive'.
I am not a giant whale, just a battle-scarred old sailor who has learned to swim. There is no crash course for financial freedom here, only survival notes earned with real money.
