#数字资产市场动态 Many friends often ask me if there is a relatively reliable way in the crypto world. I don't want to start with models or techniques; instead, I’ll share the years I’ve personally experienced.

Eight years ago, when I entered the market, I had less than a thousand USD. A key point is that I was very clear about my positioning — this money was for trial and error, not for flipping my life around. Making mistakes was itself a prerequisite for entering.

My initial goal was actually very simple: just one thing — avoid being eliminated by the market early.

During that time, I set several unbreakable rules for myself. The loss limit for each trade was calculated in advance, and once reached, I would exit immediately. As long as my account showed phased growth, I would withdraw some profits to realize gains. It may sound less exciting, but this approach ensured that the account wouldn’t go completely out of control due to a single fluctuation.

As my funds slowly grew to around ten thousand dollars, I started to notice another problem. Opportunities are actually never lacking; the market generates new trading signals every day. What is truly scarce is judgment — knowing when to act and when to wait.

Many times, the market looks very hot, and participation is high, but after calm analysis, you realize that this market isn’t actually suitable for involvement. I’ve experienced several coins that surged consecutively; I chose to wait and watch. Watching others make money was indeed uncomfortable. But looking back at the candlestick charts, those coins often retraced more, and I avoided a risk.

From that moment on, I truly accepted a fact: in this market, minimizing mistakes is itself a form of profit. You don’t need to seize every opportunity; you just need to avoid crashing at the wrong times.

Later, as my funds reached a new level, the challenge came from within. As the position size increased, emotions became more volatile. When earning more, it’s easy to relax vigilance; when the market is especially hot, it’s easy to overestimate your judgment. My later approach was to regularly review with someone else, reminding and constraining each other. Once, during the most euphoric moment, a remark from my partner made me exit early, which helped me avoid a significant retracement afterward.

Today, I am increasingly convinced of one thing: account growth has never depended on a single brilliant judgment, but on long-term persistence and execution. How far you can go ultimately depends on whether you stay clear-headed and truly follow the rules.

There are no shortcuts or secrets on this path. It’s not about courage, but patience, rhythm control, and self-discipline. If you want to break through the dilemma, start by staying rational.
