Recently reviewed my actual trading results, and my ranking has reached 49. To be honest, my capital size is indeed limited, but when converted into return on investment, it's still quite decent. Mainly, luck plays a significant role, but I plan to add some funds later to continue trying and see if I can move further forward.

What I want to emphasize is my current trading mindset. Actually, all upward movements feel like paper tigers to me. If the increase is within my expected range, I will continue to hold, but once it surpasses my imagination, I will close the position without hesitation. The reasoning is simple—as long as the green mountains remain, I’m not afraid of missing the next opportunity.

There's a saying that’s quite useful: When trading reaches the realm of enlightenment, it requires patience and more patience; to achieve something, a calm mindset is essential. Staying up late in this market is normal, but more importantly, maintaining clear judgment is crucial. I’ve been paying attention to mainstream coins like ETH and SOL, but the timing of taking action is always more important than the frequency of actions.

ETH-1.12%

SOL-1.49%

49 people is pretty good, but I keep wanting to make a big move haha... However, this mindset is truly exceptional; not many people know when to know when to stop.

Luck, mainly luck. Hearing 49 sounds good, but when it comes to adding funds, I need to think about whether I can hold onto that resolve.

49 people is pretty good, but to be honest, luck plays such a big role. You really need to think carefully before adding funds. Wait, the metaphor of the paper tiger... still feels a bit like a gambler's mentality. Closing positions in time is correct, but be careful that saying "next opportunity" doesn't become an excuse for the next loss. I've heard this calm judgment approach too many times, but in the end, it still can't escape the market’s slap. If you really want to compare the timing of your moves, you must first admit that most of the time, you're actually guessing.

49 people is not bad, but to be honest, this ranking feels a bit like luck of the draw. Next market turn could easily see you fall behind. Before adding funds, you still need to think carefully. When your principal is small, you should be even more cautious. There are too many examples of going all-in and crashing. I understand your "paper tiger" analogy, but I think this mindset is easy to talk about but hard to practice. When FOMO hits, few can really hold on. I agree that luck plays a big role, so there's no need to overhype short-term results. Just be cautious of a retracement in the next cycle. I'm also watching ETH and SOL, but it feels like they are already at high levels now. Let's wait and see. Having a stable mindset to survive longer is not wrong, but it seems there aren't many clear-headed people in this market.
