If you want to treat trading coins as a second source of income and survive in this market long-term, these 8 iron rules will help you a lot


In a bull market, many people can make money.
In a bear market, the number of people who can still stay alive is actually small.
Over the years in crypto, I’ve stepped into pitfalls and paid tuition. In the end, I’ve boiled it down to these points.
First, the biggest drop reveals whether a coin is really any good.
When the overall market falls messily, it’s only a small dip or moving sideways—this kind of coin usually has funds taking care of it, and later it’s often easier to recover.
Second, once a trend forms, don’t hesitate.
Hold when it’s going up—don’t run just because it rises a bit.
As long as the trend hasn’t broken when it falls, you don’t need to scare yourself.
If you really see a sell-off with heavy volume, cut your position accordingly.
Third, short-term trading hates stubborn holding the most.
If you buy and there’s no movement for three days, you should leave.
If you’re wrong, acknowledge it and cut losses within a few percentage points.
A small loss is always more comfortable than a big loss.
Fourth, when a coin has been falling for a long time and the market has stopped paying attention, opportunities are often coming soon.
But don’t catch the bottom with your eyes closed—you need to see whether money is coming back and whether there are signs of the sell-off stopping.
Fifth, always follow the trend.
Don’t think cheap prices are an opportunity.
Many people like to buy coins that have halved, and the result is that after the coin halves, it also cuts the ankle.
In the market, what’s usually most expensive isn’t the price—it’s going against the trend.
Sixth, don’t get too carried away after you make money.
After every profitable trade, ask yourself.
Was it earned through skill, or delivered by luck?
If you can’t explain the reason, next time you’ll likely give it back again.
Seventh, when you’re not sure, go to cash.
Don’t trade just for the sake of trading.
The truly great ones aren’t the ones who open orders every day.
It’s the people who know when to act and when to wait.
Eighth, stick to a trading system that fits you.
The market changes every day.
But people who make money basically have their own rules.
The worst thing isn’t having too few methods.
The worst thing is learning this today and that tomorrow—until in the end you understand a little about everything but can’t do anything well.
In the end, trading is about who can last the longest.

This “betting on resilience during a crash” approach really works. During the big drop on 5·19, the coins I held fell even harder than the broader market. Sure enough, they then kept bleeding lower all the way and never really recovered.

Article 8 is painfully real. Two years ago, on this very day, I learned contracts, and the next day I was chasing trash coins—until, in the end, my account went to zero. Now I’m being honest and only play the spot trend, and it’s actually been more stable.
