Get Liquidated three times, losing a TSL, I finally woke up completely:

The core of making money in the crypto world is fundamentally not about technology.

Stop being obsessed with candlestick charts, indicators, and news—these account for at most 10%, while the remaining 90% is all about mindset and the game of human nature.
Let's speak some truth today; it might hurt, but it can save you.

1️⃣ What you lack is not the Holy Grail, but the "courage to cut losses".
Everyone knows the importance of stop-loss, but you just can't do it.
Always fantasizing about "just stopping the loss and then pumping" and "holding on a bit longer will bring it back," but in the end, a small loss turns into a huge loss, and ultimately gets liquidated.
💡 Remember: Stop loss is not a failure, it's a cost. It's the "insurance fee" for staying alive.
Top traders cut losses on more than half of their positions, yet still make money—because they firmly believe in "cutting losses and letting profits run."
✅ How to practice? Within 10 seconds of opening a position, you must set a stop loss. Let your hands form muscle memory, and don't give your brain time to make excuses.

2️⃣ What you need is not opportunity, but "patience in being out of the market".
Retail investors are always afraid of missing every opportunity, FOMO kicks in, they go all-in to chase the rise, and end up getting stuck at the peak.
💡 The truth: The market is not short of opportunities, but lacks money and the ability to discover opportunities.
Most market conditions are just wasted time; there may only be a few real trends in a year.
Lying still like a crocodile, waiting for a certain opportunity to strike.

3️⃣ What you pursue is not the win rate, but the "odds".
Looking for the "Holy Grail" that is "always correct"? It simply doesn't exist.
💡 Making money doesn't depend on how many times you trade, but rather on how much you earn when you trade at the right time and how much you lose when you trade at the wrong time.
In a single trade, earning 5000U while only willing to lose 500U is a good odds of 1:10 - even if you are right only 3 times out of 10, you still win.
✅ Before placing an order, ask yourself: "What is the maximum I can lose on this order?" Write the number down on paper and set the position with a stop loss.

4️⃣ Your real enemy is not the market, but the "inner demons".
The K-line is objective, while the operation is subjective. Your enemy has always been yourself reflected on the screen.
Greed when making a profit: "Hold on a little longer," resulting in profit being given back;
When in loss, afraid of: "hold on a bit longer" or "quickly cut losses";
Empty position itch: "Itching to operate", "Afraid of missing out."
✅ Weekly trading review: The focus is not on profit and loss, but on the emotions at the time—"Was it due to fear/greed/FOMO trading?" You will find that you keep falling for the same mental traps.

📍The last heartfelt words:
In this market, surviving for a long time is more important than being aggressive.
Technical skills can be learned in a month, but one's mindset needs to be cultivated for a lifetime.
First, focus on being a good person; making money is just a natural result.
