In crypto these years, I’ve seen too many people come in, and too many leave.


What stays for the long term is always only a minority. My cousin once came to me with $30k in principal; back then, every day he was anxious and didn’t know how to trade. I just told him, don’t rush—follow the method and do it. In three months, the account reached $110k, with no liquidation the whole time. It wasn’t because of any secret; I’ve also stepped into countless traps myself. Chasing pumps, holding losing positions, and randomly averaging down—those losses eventually all became experience. Today I’m sharing these words so you can take fewer detours.

First, don’t go all-in betting with a small principal.
Catching a few solid opportunities with certainty in a year is already enough.

Second, don’t touch projects you don’t understand.
A lot of losses happen because you buy something you don’t know.

Third, don’t act impulsively when news breaks.
When good news is realized, it’s sometimes also when capital exits.

Fourth, reduce position size during special times.
Volatility around holidays and before/after is likely to be amplified, and there’s no need to stubbornly hold on.

Fifth, for swing trades, keep some cash.
Only with cash do you have room to adjust and plan.

Sixth, for scalping, only trade coins with volume.
Without capital pushing, even the prettiest chart patterns are hard to sustain.

Seventh, after panic, opportunities often come.
But a rebound doesn’t mean a reversal—control your risk.

Eighth, if you’re wrong on direction, admit it and correct it in time.
Keep the principal—opportunities will always appear again.

Ninth, for short-term trading, it’s all about timing and rhythm.
Understand the market, but also nail the moment.

Tenth, don’t chase too many methods.
Find a system that suits you, and stick to executing it.

The biggest goal of trading isn’t to get rich overnight.
It’s to survive in the market long enough.

Your cousin can turn 30k into 110k within three months—that’s really impressive. But I think what’s even more worth learning is the ten points you summarized, especially “If you’re headed in the wrong direction, admit and correct it in time” and “If the principal is small, don’t go all-in.” These two rules can save a lot of people’s lives. I hope more people can calm down and focus, and stop always dreaming of getting rich overnight.
