Having been in the cryptocurrency space for a long time, I often come to understand a counterintuitive saying: those who truly make big money from cryptocurrencies are often very 'lazy'.

In my early years, I also fell into traps, always thinking that I had to stay up late watching the market, frequently trade, and chase hot coins to make money. As a result, I was repeatedly harvested in futures leverage, and my account value shrank all the way, slowly realizing the core — the market should follow the trend rather than confront it head-on.

During the time my account really started to take off, my operations were actually monotonous to the point of boredom. When my capital was not much, I never thought about going all in on altcoins to change my fate; instead, I first practiced risk isolation: for every profit that came in, I would transfer 50% to a cold wallet as a safety net, and the remaining funds would be allocated to my trading position. Even if I missed short-term opportunities or incurred losses, I wouldn’t lose my cool and make erratic trades.

When placing orders, I was even more 'lazy', never waiting to chase peaks during a surge, but instead waiting for extreme market sentiment divergence and clear K-line trend structures to form before taking small positions to test the waters. I always maintained a light position, with leverage never exceeding 2 times, and setting stop-loss orders in advance; if the price fell below, I would decisively exit, never stubbornly holding on.

The key principle is simple: only use profit funds to increase positions, and the principal must never be used for other purposes. When the market moves smoothly, gradually increase the position size, taking profits in batches on each rise to recover risks; even if there are subsequent pullbacks, it won't cause significant damage.

I have set strict rules for myself: don't go empty-handed when emotions are chaotic, stop trading after consecutive losses, take profits once targets are met, and exit when the rhythm is disrupted. Nowadays, the market is becoming more mature, and the volatility has decreased; relying on stubbornly holding on is no longer feasible.

Those who can survive in the cryptocurrency space for a long time are those who break down risks and slow down their trading pace. Don't blindly believe that 'the more diligent, the more you earn'; being a bit lazy and stable can actually take you further.
