Let's be honest with everyone: if you want to survive longer in the crypto world, the first lesson is never about how to make a huge profit, but how to stay alive.



I've seen that those who can persist until now are all people who manage their own hands well.

The day before yesterday, a friend complained to me, saying he has 5,000 U and the market is good now, so he wants to go all in. After hearing this, I only gave him one suggestion: don't rush.

He was a bit unconvinced, thinking that not taking action means missing out on opportunities. Actually, that's not missing out; it's about holding back when you shouldn't move.

I used to have this problem myself in the early days. Back then, I could open over ten trades a week, but as a result, my account was beaten down to almost nothing. Later, I realized that the problem wasn't in the technique but in the mindset—being too impatient.

Since then, I set a strict rule for myself: significantly reduce the trading frequency.

If there's no clear support level or confidence in your mind, it's better to stay on the sidelines. I went a whole month only making two trades, and I held back from entering during other times.

Once, SOL pulled back to a key level, and I didn't rush to jump in. I waited several days before entering in batches. As a result, I made over 2,000 U in profit in just a week. That's when I truly understood—it's not that my skills are poor, but that I was too impatient before, messing up the rhythm entirely.

Now, before I take action, I must think through three things: the main trend direction, market sentiment (hot or cold), and trading volume compatibility. Entry points and stop-loss points must be planned in advance; I never make decisions on the spot.

Fewer trades mean the account becomes more stable.

How should 5,000 U be used? The logic is simple: fewer entries, better results each time.

You don't need to watch the K-line every day; just select a few of the most promising opportunities, then patiently grow your position over time.

I've seen many people lose money, not because they lack opportunities, but because they want to eat a big meal in one bite. Before their capital is fully accumulated, they've already been wiped out.

Opportunities come repeatedly, but your capital is limited.

The reason I can go from a few thousand U to where I am today is not because of any special secret, but because I’ve kicked the greed habit and gradually understood when to hide and when to strike.

The market will still give opportunities in the future, but the premise is—you must survive until that day.

Exactly right, I am the living proof of making over ten transactions a week... my account has gone from five digits to two digits, uh I won't say more.

Really, the most insightful thing I can say is—first, you have to live until that day. I used to be the kind of fool who took more than ten orders a week, and now looking back, I really admire how much I used to mess around.

Listening to this, I suddenly remembered my painful lessons from earlier years... Opening orders every day really is working for the exchange.

To be honest, I understood this theory a long time ago, but I really can't stick to the execution. Every time, I watch opportunities slip away.
