If you want to treat crypto trading as a second source of income, and want to survive long-term in this market, Cat Brother’s 8 iron rules will be of huge help to you.

There are many people who can make money in a bull market.
But there are actually very few people who can still survive in a bear market.
The pitfalls I’ve fallen into and the tuition I’ve paid in the crypto world over these years—when I finally summed it all up, it comes down to these points.
First, a sharp crash shows best whether a coin is truly any good.
When the overall market drops in a mess, it’s only a small dip or moving sideways—usually it means the coin has funds looking after it, and later it’s often easier for it to recover.
Second, once the trend is formed, don’t hesitate.
When it’s going up, hold on—don’t run just because it’s up a little.
When it falls, as long as the trend hasn’t broken, you don’t need to scare yourself.
If it really comes to a high-volume sell-off, reduce your position accordingly.
Third, short-term trading is most taboo against stubbornly “holding on to the death.”
If you buy in and there’s no movement after three days, leave.
If you’re wrong and realize it, admit it in time and cut the loss by a few percentage points.
A small loss is always more comfortable than a big one.
Fourth, when a coin has been falling for a long time and the market has stopped paying attention, opportunities often come soon.
But don’t blindly catch the bottom with your eyes closed—you need to see whether funds are coming back, and whether there are signals that selling pressure has stopped.
Fifth, always follow the trend.
Don’t think the price is cheap, so it must be an opportunity.
Many people like to buy coins that have been cut in half—only to find that after the halving, there’s still another cut.
In the market, the most expensive thing is often not the price—it’s going against the trend.
Sixth, once you make money, don’t get carried away.
After every profitable trade, ask yourself this.
Was it earned through real strength, or handed to you by luck?
If you can’t explain the reason clearly, next time you’ll most likely give it back again.
Seventh, when you’re not confident, stay in cash.
Don’t trade just for the sake of trading.
The truly formidable aren’t the people placing orders every day.
It’s the ones who know when to act and when to wait.
Eighth, stick to a trading system that suits you.
The market changes every day.
But people who make money basically all have their own rules.
The biggest fear isn’t having too few methods.
What’s really scary is learning this today and that tomorrow—ending up knowing a little about everything, but being unable to do anything well.
In the end, trading is all about who can survive the longest.
