Over the past few years, I've seen too many people staring at all kinds of altcoins every day, searching for the so-called "next hundredfold," only to get more and more exhausted while their accounts shrink.


I’ve been through that phase myself, and only later did I gradually change my approach.
Now, it’s much simpler. I mainly focus on two: $BTC and $ETH .
Not because they rise the fastest, but because they are the cleanest.
The market movement is clear, and it’s less likely to be taken out by a single spike.
When I short, it’s actually not complicated.
The price is always held down by the 4-hour MA60, unable to go higher, so I start to trade gradually.
Not jumping in all at once, but adding little by little.
But there’s one thing I’ve always insisted on:
Cut your losses and walk away.
Many people don’t necessarily see the wrong direction, but they’re reluctant to admit they’re wrong.
I actually think a small loss is just a cost; holding on blindly is the real danger.
It’s the same when going long.
I never try to guess the bottom; I wait for a signal:
A place where it’s clearly been picked up before.
Once it’s in position, I start to gradually add in, first a little, then add more depending on the situation, but never more than three times.
If I can’t hold a key level, I won’t stubbornly hold on.
Ultimately, in this market, those who admit they’re wrong quickly are the ones who last the longest.
I have a few habits that I’ve never changed.
I don’t over-allocate my position; I only risk a small part of my capital on each trade.
If I’m not feeling well during the day and I keep losing, I just stop and don’t force it anymore.
Because when people get anxious, their judgment gets distorted.
Another point is, during big drops, I always keep some funds idle.
Many people panic, but that’s actually when the most opportunities arise.
After making money, it’s the same—don’t keep holding.
When ETH breaks out, I start to take profits gradually;
Once BTC pulls away, I move my stop-loss up.
Being able to keep the profits is true profit.
These things sound simple, but few can really do them.
Most of the time, it’s not that the method is difficult, but that people can’t control themselves.
I didn’t understand all this from the start either; it’s a habit I developed after falling into many traps.
If you’re in the same situation now:
Trading back and forth without stability,
Clearly seeing the right direction but unable to hold,
Or hesitating when it’s time to cut losses,
It’s actually quite normal. I’ve been through that step by step myself.
It was only later that someone helped me avoid many detours.
Don’t think about turning things around overnight; first, learn to survive.
As long as you stay in the game, the next market cycle will eventually come to you. #特朗普同意停火两周 #加密市场回升
