After a few years of trading, the operation I like most is actually not trading
When I first entered the crypto market, the thing I feared most was missing the行情 (market move).
Seeing others make money made me anxious; seeing the price rise made me impulsive; when a hot trend appeared, I always felt I had to jump in immediately.
In many cases, when others were going up, I entered; when others were selling, I ended up holding the bag.
After going through a few rounds of market cycles, I finally understood this lesson:
Trading is not about who can act faster, but about who can control themselves.
Now my trading principles are simple:
First, use a reasonable position size. Don’t let a single trade affect your life.
Second, set clear stop-losses. Don’t let small mistakes turn into big problems.
Third, trade with the trend. Don’t fight the market head-on.
Fourth, buy the dips and wait for opportunities. Don’t rush to grab the first wave.
Fifth, avoid chasing. Don’t buy at the most疯狂 (crazy) point in the market.
Sixth, stay calm when you’re profitable, and remain rational when you’re losing.
Seventh, look at the price—and also how trading volume changes.
Eighth, wait when there’s no opportunity.
In the past, I always thought I could find a method that guarantees steady wins.
Later, after doing it for a long time, I realized the market has no sure-win.
People who consistently make money are only those who commit fewer fatal mistakes than others.
Now I don’t envy those who get rich in a short time; I admire those whose accounts keep growing even after experiencing years of market cycles.
Because in the end, trading is a contest of time.
Earn money through skill, protect your principal through discipline, and wait for opportunities with patience.
The market will always present the next chance—but the prerequisite is that you’re still there.
When you trade long enough, you’ll find that how much money you make is just the result; whether you can survive long-term is what truly makes you the winner.
