Sow in spring, reap in autumn, and patiently await the bloom!
Many people haven’t missed out because opportunities never came along, but because they let indecision make them miss those opportunities—and still didn’t manage to avoid the risks. We always want to buy at the lowest point and sell at the highest, reaping handsome returns without enduring market volatility. The result is often that we hesitate to buy when prices rise, then can’t hold on when they fall. True maturity in trading means accepting that you can’t predict every market move, and don’t need to beat every fluctuation. I remain bullish on BTC and ETH over the long term, but that doesn’t mean prices only go up. Market swings, pullbacks, and even panic are all part and parcel of investing.
When you can truly make a living from trading, the feeling isn’t excitement or happiness—it’s a stillness as calm as a glassy lake.
You know exactly when to enter a trade, and you’re equally clear about the dead time you simply have to endure.
You’ve long since given up the childish fantasy of getting rich overnight. Like a farmer, you sow, tend your fields, and wait patiently for the harvest.
This profound tranquility is the hard-won wisdom you’ve finally gained after enduring countless nights of stop-losses.
No matter how talented a trader is, they can’t make money they don’t have the patience to wait for. After all, even the best chef has to wait for the ribs to stew.
How many people got the direction right, only to fall by the wayside? The ability to wait is a top-tier talent in itself. Once you realize that not acting is also a form of mastery, waiting is no longer an ordeal but a way to build strength. During the buildup, don’t think about the breakout. Waiting patiently may seem to get you nowhere—until suddenly, everything changes.
When water is heating, the sound can suddenly grow quieter just before it boils. Trading is much the same: let discipline set the floor, let fate determine the ceiling, and leave the rest to time to reveal the outcome.
This hacking incident is a serious test for Binance, and it has once again reminded the entire crypto industry of the importance of security. No platform can guarantee it will never make a mistake. What truly deserves our trust is the willingness to take responsibility and actively resolve problems when they arise. Binance has clearly stated that it will cover the losses from the stolen funds and protect its users’ interests. This sense of responsibility and accountability deserves recognition! As always, I support Binance, CZ, He Yi, and the entire Binance team! Trust isn’t built when everything is smooth sailing; it’s tested through storms.
ETH has been correcting steadily from around $2,800, and the exchange wallet hack has pushed it down to a low of around $2,170. Market panic is intensifying, but opportunities are also beginning to emerge.
📍 My market outlook:
🟢 $2,100–$2,250: Key accumulation zone. The bottom of this correction may form here, with major players potentially accumulating amid volatility.
🟢 $2,800: Key breakout level. Once a bottom is established, a new rally could begin.
🟢 $3,600: Short-term target. Based on $2,200, the potential upside is around 64%.
🎯 $10,000: Long-term bull-market target. I remain firmly bullish on ETH’s long-term value!
⚠️ Trading strategy: Build positions in stages and manage leverage. If the price decisively breaks below $2,100, reassess the bottom outlook.
Look for opportunities when others are fearful, and stay level-headed when others are euphoric. Real profits go to those who read the trend correctly and have the conviction to hold their positions!
📈 BTC faces short-term headwinds, but the long-term bullish thesis remains unchanged!
As previously assessed, $79,000–$82,000 is an important accumulation zone for BTC. Once major players have finished accumulating, BTC could make a push toward $94,000–$95,000. But amid news related to the exchange hack, BTC fell below $79,000 and has now pulled back to the $76,000–$77,000 range, with short-term market panic intensifying. ⚠️ A reminder to everyone: control your position size, manage leverage strictly, and never trade with maximum leverage! In the short term, watch whether the $76,000–$77,000 area can hold, and whether BTC can reclaim $79,000. If market sentiment recovers, the original upward trajectory is still worth watching:
Li Daxiao: Young people, even if your investments are wiped out, don't give up easily or lose confidence in life. Everyone faces setbacks; the most important thing is to pick yourself back up. At worst, take on a few more jobs—you can earn the money back.
📈 The Most Important Lesson of Livermore’s Trading Career: You Know, It’s a Bull Market! In *Reminiscences of a Stock Operator*, one person had a profound influence on Livermore’s trading philosophy: Partridge, known as “Old Turkey.” At the time, a trader in the market had bought a stock and was already sitting on a nice profit. He judged that the market was about to pull back, so he sold his shares and advised Partridge to take profits quickly too, then buy back in once prices fell. To his surprise, Partridge calmly replied: “You know, it’s a bull market!”
📈 The biggest test in a BTC bull market isn’t the market—it’s your mindset!
Bitcoin’s recent price action is probably driving quite a few investors crazy. With all the back-and-forth volatility and sudden rises and falls, those who trade on emotion are often the ones who suffer most. If even a slight price fluctuation makes you anxious and constantly checking the charts, your position may be too large. Don’t expect the bull market to rise nonstop. Making money has never been easy, and the market won’t let everyone make a comfortable profit. Truly mature traders know how to control their position sizes—and, more importantly, manage their emotions. 🍵 Lean back, relax, have another cup of tea, and check the market a little less.
Investing requires two things: the patience to wait for the long term, and the courage to act decisively when an opportunity arises;
When an opportunity is right there in front of you, don’t keep second-guessing yourself and dragging your feet. Patience isn’t always an advantage, nor should it become a shackle. In this line of work, nothing is more dangerous than getting trapped in endless self-doubt.
When you can’t make sense of things, set them aside for a while and keep observing. But once the situation becomes completely clear, don’t just wait around indefinitely. When the moment to act comes, act decisively.
Lean on a mountain, and it may crumble; rely on water, and it will flow away. Relying on others is no match for cultivating yourself. See through every kind of human sentiment, and you’ll find that only you will always be there for yourself.
Life has its ups and downs, and only then can you see the warmth and coldness of human nature. In good times, there’s no shortage of flattery; in hard times, you discover who truly cares. Rather than depending on others, it’s better to cultivate yourself and remain independent.
If you spot a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you should not only take a large position—you should go all in.
In trading circles, people say that what sets top traders apart is their willingness to take a large position when a good opportunity arises. If you want to make big money, you have to take a large position when the opportunity comes.
What makes a trading opportunity good? Even if I take a large position, my risk is still very low. That’s a good trading opportunity.
