Last time I had drinks with Jinma—an old-timer who’s been in the crypto world for over a decade.


This guy, after several bull and bear cycles, his account balance is beyond what we can imagine.
I thought he’d share some secret tricks or draw some flying candlestick charts, but his first words left me speechless:
The vast majority of people lose money, it’s not that they don’t understand the charts, but that they can’t control those damn hands.
We talked all night and found that everything he said was just “nutritional” truths.

He said many people panic as soon as prices rise, afraid of missing out on a billion.
When they finally jump in, it’s usually when emotions are at their hottest and the main players are ready to dump.
Prices go up, they’re afraid of missing the train; prices go down, they’re afraid of going to zero.
They keep flipping back and forth, and the money’s gone.

There’s also a group of people who are especially obsessed with “bottom fishing.”
They think a 20% drop is a golden opportunity, a 40% drop is just giving away money, and a 60% drop they go all-in.
But the most frustrating thing about the market is: what you think is the bottom might just be the basement, and there could be eighteen floors below that.
He said the most stable profits he’s made over the years came when he traded the least.
Market unclear? Wait.
No trend? Watch.
Sideways trading is annoying? Stare into space.
Better to miss out than make a mistake.
Because many losses aren’t due to wrong direction, but because of trading for the sake of trading, giving away fees and stop-loss points to the market.
Thinking back, isn’t it like this:
Chase the high once, lose a little $BTC
Copy the bottom once, lose a little
Hold a position once, lose a little more
Each time isn’t fatal, but after many times, the account naturally dries up.
The market itself hasn’t really changed; what changes is people’s hearts.
Some are always looking for the “Holy Grail,” switching indicators, strategies, teachers, like headless flies;
Others focus on one thing—controlling emotions and executing discipline.
In the end, it’s not the smartest who survive, but those who can hold their temper the longest.
If you’ve been buying just before it drops or selling just before it rises, don’t blame the market makers targeting you.
Many times, it’s not the market messing with you, but your rhythm being led astray by the market.
