Today, I won't talk about those profound theories. I'll directly share a few trading insights that have helped me and those around me survive and even make money. Each one is backed by real cash.

**Lesson One: Learn How to Lose First, Don't Rush to Win**

Ask yourself a question before entering the market—how much am I willing to lose? Using living expenses, rent, or even borrowing money and leveraging to trade will crush your mindset from the start. Only trade with spare funds that you can afford to lose completely; this is your bottom line for surviving market turbulence.

Looking at contract trading, the average user doesn't last long; most end up liquidated. A single black swan event can wipe out leveraged traders entirely. So, I want to be very clear—survival is always more important than making money.

**Lesson Two: Don't Be Fooled by Luck; Discipline Is Your Lifeline**

Do you often regret: "The coin I bought went up, but I sold too early," or "I sold too late"? This isn't about prediction ability; the key is discipline.

When making profits: After three consecutive days of gains, reduce your position. For coins that look promising, after a few big bullish candles, the momentum begins to fade. Take profits in stages; locking in gains is always the right move.

When losing money: Set a stop-loss line (for example, cut at an 8% drop), and execute immediately when triggered—no hesitation. Admitting mistakes is to preserve your capital for the next rebound. The market won't let you off just because you "hold on stubbornly."

**Lesson Three: Follow the Trend, Don't Fight It**

The trend is your ally. When a coin's daily chart starts to turn upward, that's a signal. Those who follow the trend profit from the trend; those who go against it lose their temper and their money.
