There’s a kind of people who—I’ve seen far too many of them.
When their account first enters the market, it’s 100,000 U. A few months later, only a few thousand remain.
It’s not that the行情 is too bad—it’s that they end up killing themselves with their own behavior.
Most traders are actually in pretty much the same state: dozens of trades in a day, and they can’t stop hand-trading.
The more they pay in fees, the smaller the account gets.
Seeing others make money off meme coins, they FOMO in.
By the time they come to their senses, the candlestick has already given you a big bearish candle.
They stay up all night watching the chart— the more they look, the more chaotic it gets. The more they “try,” the faster they lose.
To put it bluntly, most people who lose money aren’t trading—they’re using their account to bet on emotions.
In fact, if many people just change a few habits, their trading would be completely different.
I’ve always told the people around me three things.
First: don’t be a slave to the candlesticks.
Many people spend every day staring at 1-minute and 5-minute charts.
If it rises a little, they chase. If it drops a little, they panic.
The truly meaningful setups are often found in larger timeframes.
Look at the trend on 4-hour charts and above; a breakout is the real opportunity.
It’s better to miss than to act randomly.
Making one or two trades a day—or even not trading—beats randomly sweeping orders.
Second: roll over using profit, not your principal—don’t gamble your life.
Many people add to positions for this logic: I’m down, so I average down— the more I add, the bigger it gets.
Then the market moves a bit more, and they get liquidated.
The correct method is actually simple: start with a small first trade as a test.
If the direction is right, roll using the profits you earned.
When you win, expand your advantage. When you lose, shrink immediately.
If losses reach a certain percentage, cut the trade—no adding, no holding, no fantasies.
Third: discipline matters a hundred times more than technique.
After two consecutive stop-losses, stop right there.
Don’t place emotional trades.
Many people lose money not because their skills are bad, but because they refuse to admit they’re wrong.
They keep holding it out. They keep adding. In the end, they end up carrying the account to zero.
At the end of the day, trading is actually simple: follow the trend + control position sizing + cut losses.
But most people would rather trust complicated indicators.
And they’d rather not accept one reality—that they’ve actually been gambling all along.
If crypto wants a comeback, the first step isn’t how much money you can make.
It’s learning one thing first: survive.
