The longer you stay in the crypto world, the more you realize a truth: those who can truly make money are not the ones who see the most accurately, but the ones with the strongest execution ability.
The market is right there, everyone can see it. But can you make money? It all depends on whether you have discipline at critical moments. I have been practicing several fundamental principles and want to share them with everyone:
Don't rush to exit during low volatility; when prices surge high, you also need to be ruthless and reduce your position. Extreme emotions are the real opportunity; on the other hand, sideways markets are the easiest to cause problems.
Reducing positions during a big rise requires skill; daring to buy during a big drop requires ability; patience during sideways movement is a form of cultivation. Many people lose money not because they see the wrong direction, but because of out-of-control positions and emotional impulses. Chasing after the market leads to full positions; falling sharply leads to stubbornly holding on—either getting liquidated or completely losing your mindset.
The core of trading is going against human nature—stay calm when others are greedy, have a plan when others panic. You don't need every trade to be perfect, just controllable. The market offers opportunities every day, but it only rewards those who follow the rules and can survive. Be a little slower, a little steadier, and your account can go much further.

That's right, it's a matter of discipline. I also think so.

It sounds good, but how many people actually follow through? I’m the kind of person who knows but can't do. Every time there's a big drop, I get impulsive and buy in.

That's right, it's a game of mindset and discipline; most people lose because of greed.

That's true, but how many people can actually do it? Most people panic when prices fall and get carried away when prices rise. Discipline is the biggest test of human nature.

That's right, it's all about discipline. But most people can't do it at all, including myself—sometimes I also want to chase highs, haha.
