Last time, Brother Jinma was having skewers with an old-timer who has been in the crypto world for over ten years.

This guy, after several bull and bear cycles, his account balance is beyond what we can imagine.
I thought he would share some secret tricks or draw candlestick charts like a pro, but he

The first sentence directly left me speechless:
Everyone loses money, it's not that they can't read the charts, but that they can't control those damn hands.
We talked all night and found that he's full of "nutritional" truths that are just plain facts.

He said many people panic as soon as prices rise, fearing they'll miss out on a billion.
When they finally jump in, it's usually when emotions are at their hottest and the main players are about to dump.
Prices go up to avoid missing the boat, fall to avoid going to zero, and in the back-and-forth, money is lost.

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 money away, and a 60% drop means going all-in.
But the most frustrating thing about the market is: what you think is the bottom might just be the top of a basement, and there could be eighteen floors below.

He said that the most stable profits he made over the years came when he traded the least.
Uncertain market? Wait.
No clear trend? Watch.
Boring sideways movement? Stare blankly.
Better to miss out than to 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.

Copy the bottom once, lose a little.
Hold the position once, lose a little more.
Each time it’s not fatal, but if it happens often, the account will naturally dry up.
The market hasn’t really changed; what has changed is people’s hearts.

Some are always looking for the "Holy Grail," changing indicators, strategies, teachers, like headless flies;
Others focus on one thing—controlling emotions and sticking to discipline.

In the end, those who survive are often not the smartest, but the ones who can hold back the longest.
If you’ve been buying just before the price 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.
