Still the same old saying: If you don’t have your own trading system and always rely on others’ trading strategies, you will never know what methods they use to verify that plan. You will always be stuck in a cycle of losses and gains. Everyone’s trading system is different. To achieve stable profits, building your own system is essential. If you want to be a freelance trader in this industry over the long term, you must invest effort into crafting a system that belongs to you. If you don’t put in the effort to create your own system, you will always face the dilemma of whether to follow or not—follow and fear losses, don’t follow and fear missing out on big gains—and you will never understand the logic behind it. The market itself cannot be predicted for ups and downs; you can only use your own method to verify the market’s rules. When you’re wrong, admit it. Don’t blindly add positions, average down, or over-leverage. Making profits is simple—close your eyes and place 10 random orders, and you’re bound to have some winners. But achieving consistent profits is not easy. Aim for a steady 5-10% daily growth, and never be greedy. If the market gives you more, take it; if it doesn’t, accept it. How much you can earn depends on your ability, and your ability depends on your attitude toward yourself. If you’re slacking off, the market will give you slacking-off returns. The hardship of being a freelance trader lies in the early stages of building and learning the system. I believe that in the past few years, 90% of the brothers have already quit and retired. The past three to four years have seen wild market swings, with major coins hitting both their lowest and highest points, and we nailed them perfectly. Simply put, the BTC short at 125,000 and the ETH short at 4,900—in less than a year, wasn’t the combined profit enough? With full 400x leverage, 100u in ETH turned into 27,000u, and 100u in BTC turned into 21,000u. In less than a year, at an exchange rate of 6.8, that’s about 326,000 RMB. Trading isn’t hard; what’s hard is seriously building your own trading system and following its rules. Even if you cut the leverage by half, you’d still have around 160k in profit. Isn’t that enough to just lie flat and earn 160k without doing anything?



Still the same old saying: To last long-term, you must build your own trading system. Don’t always rely on others. Others can only give you short-term benefits because you can’t fully understand their trading logic.

The Six Levels of Investing:
Level 1: Gambler's Frenzy – Full position, all-in, chasing gains and panic selling, believing in get-rich-quick myths. Account swings like a roller coaster; blowing up is just a matter of time.
Level 2: Technical Prisoner – Starts studying candlesticks, support and resistance, wave theory, and so on. Obsessed with finding the holy grail, only to discover the market has no certainty when win rates fall below 50%. Technical analysis and subjective predictions are essentially probability games.
Level 3: Strategy Awakening – Drops complex analysis, uses simple rules to define market conditions, dispels the illusion of market sentiment, and only participates in opportunities they can understand. A trading system begins to take shape, but execution remains a weakness.
Level 4: Discipline Machine – Takes profit without blinking, cuts losses like slicing vegetables. Yet there is still emptiness and anxiety inside, always feeling investing can't possibly be this simple, and that a black swan could strike at any moment.
Level 5: Probability Player – Understands that gains and losses come from the same source. Accepts that no strategy is perfect; every strong edge comes with a corresponding cost. Accepting defeat is the entry ticket. Seven losses are the price for three explosive wins. No longer fixates on individual wins or losses, only long-term compounding.
Level 6: Enlightened One – Trading is no longer a technical game. Sees that "price fluctuation is the game of human nature" and uses philosophical thinking to capture trends. Trading has become instinct, as natural as breathing.
