Friends, if in the next three years you don’t leave the crypto market, and you set your sights on making trading coins your second profession—remember these 8 iron rules. They’re all battle-tested practical insights. Save this!
1. Losses are easier than profits—protecting your principal is the first rule
If you turn 1M into 2M, you only need a 100% gain; but if you fall from 2M back to 1M, you only need a 50% loss.
With the same 1M, if you first rise 10% and then fall 10%, you end up with just 0.99M.
So, protecting principal and preserving returns matters more than chasing profits.
2. Frequent up-and-down swings are hard to profit from—long-term volatility dilutes gains
If 1M makes 40% and loses 20% each year, after 6 years you’ll be left with only 1.405M, with annualized returns of under 6%—even lower than government bonds.
Stable profitability beats big surges and big crashes.
3. Small gains rely on compounding—greed ruins the whole plan
If 1M takes profit every day at a 1% gain, after 250 days you reach 12.032M, and after 500 days you exceed 145M.
It sounds astonishing, but such high returns usually can’t be sustained. If you chase greed blindly, you’ll likely end up losing everything.
Only small gains that you can accumulate over the long term truly become wealth through compounding.
4. Long-term goals must be converted into annualized returns
For 1M to become:
After 10 years: 10M → annualized 25.89%
After 20 years: 100M → annualized the same 25.89%
After 30 years: 1B → still 25.89%
When setting goals, calculate clearly first—don’t be misled by short-term explosive rallies.
5. Averaging down must be precise—don’t add money blindly
Buy 10-yuan coins for 10,000 units (1W units). Then buy another 10,000 units at 5 yuan. Your average cost is 6.67 yuan, not a simple 7.5 yuan.
Averaging down is a skill, not mindlessly “flattening.”
6. Keep a “core position” to control risk—don’t ignore potential losses
If you earn 10% to reach 1.1M from 1M:
Leave 0.1M as the bottom position. It’s like your cost becomes zero, so you can hold with peace of mind long term.
Leave 0.2M as the bottom position. Even though your paper profit doubles, if the price drops another 50%, you may still end up losing.
Don’t let unrealized gains make you lose your judgment.
7. Only in a major crash do you see what’s real—quality coins show their resilience
When the whole market broadly drops, if a certain coin only pulls back slightly, it suggests that there’s a sponsor/protective bid behind it. That indicates strong downside resilience and it’s likely a quality coin worth holding long term.
8. Conclusion: Treat trading coins like a profession—let “stability” lead
The crypto market isn’t short of opportunities; it’s short of people who can truly stay steady.
Don’t chase easy high profit. Learn to use data to set strategy, and use discipline to manage emotions—only then can you achieve long-term profitability.
As the saying goes: a lone sail won’t go far, and only by standing independently can a forest grow.
Many crypto bystanders meet their demise; only the ones with fate get carried ashore through the fisherman’s song. Entry point →@渔歌趋势 #AKE
