#数字资产市场动态 Recently, a friend complained to me: "In the current crypto market, it's just sideways trading every day, no leverage to play with, fewer hot spots, and it feels like I can't make any money at all."
I didn't say much, directly showed her my trading records. Over the past two months, I turned a principal of 1200U into 84,000U—without losing sleep overnight, and without touching any altcoins.
Do you know what supports this achievement? It's not some fancy technique, but three "clumsy" tools. Their names are: splitting, discipline, patience. Because they are "clumsy" enough, I avoided at least 80% of the pitfalls during this big震荡. Sometimes, taking the slow route is actually the fastest way to get rich.
**First Tool: Divide and Conquer, Full Position is Always a Dead End**
This is the most basic principle of survival. Currently, with bulls and bears pulling back and forth, going all-in is basically paving the way for losses.
My approach is to split the 1200U into three accounts:
- Short-term account: focuses on volatility, operates at most twice a day, takes profits of 2%-3% and then withdraws. This amount covers fees and a meal. It doesn't seem like much, but small amounts add up.
- Trend-following account: is the main force. Only enters when the weekly MA30 is above MA60, and the price breaks through recent highs. Take half the profit at 30%, lock it in, and let the rest follow the trend with a 10% trailing stop—this is the most stable profit mode.
- Backup account: has only one purpose: patch holes. During震荡, there will always be misjudgments. Having this safety net means you won't be wiped out by a single mistake. And absolutely no new funds are added here—that's the bottom line.
Distributing funds this way, during震荡, there’s always a chance to turn things around. Compared to gambling with all-in, it’s much more stable.
**Second Tool: Follow the Trend, Don’t Get Trapped by Fakeouts in震荡**
I’ve observed many beginners losing money, and 90% of them are operating blindly during震荡. They can find "trading opportunities" on 5-minute charts, but end up constantly getting trapped, stopping out, and losing fees.
My iron rule is simple: only trade in one market condition—when the daily MA30 is above MA60 and there's volume breakout above recent highs. At other times? Turn off the app, completely shut it down.
Nearly 60% of this year has been震荡, and most people stare at K-line charts every day chasing volatility, ending up bleeding on fees and getting trapped a lot. As for me? I go to the gym, spend time with family, do other things—avoiding those big fakeout traps.
Remember: During震荡, you don’t make money, only anxiety.
**Third Tool: Control Yourself First, Then Earn from the Market**
Nine out of ten beginners who blow up their accounts lack trading discipline. I set three strict rules for myself:
1. Once a single loss reaches 3% of the account, cut the position immediately—never fight against the market, never add to a losing position, never bet on a reversal. Losses are losses; accept them and move on.
2. When floating profits exceed 10%, immediately move the stop-loss to the cost price. This way, the principal is protected, and the rest is pure profit. It also keeps the mindset relaxed.
3. At 11 PM sharp, delete the trading app. Want to make up for a loss overnight? No trading the next day as punishment. When the hands itch, it’s easiest to get trapped. Instead of resisting, just make the software disappear from sight. Out of sight, out of mind—this trick really works.
With these three rules, I transformed from a trader easily driven by emotions into someone with disciplined execution. That’s the core.
Whether sideways or震荡, the real problem is never the market, but whether you have a viable methodology to survive. Most failures come from greed, lack of discipline, or always chasing quick riches. Instead of chasing the myth of overnight wealth, learn to live steadily, and let compound interest—the devil—slowly work for you.
