#数字货币市场洞察 In 2017, I entered the market with 2,000 yuan, and now my account balance has reached 36 million. In between, I’ve been liquidated, endured drawdowns, and spent countless sleepless nights staring at candlestick charts, so anxious that my hair was falling out in handfuls. But it’s exactly these lessons paid for with real money that allowed me to summarize six survival rules.



If I had understood any one of these earlier, I could have saved at least 100,000 in tuition fees. If you can truly grasp even three of them? You can avoid 90% of the rookie traps. $BNB

**First: If it rises aggressively but falls slowly, don’t rush to exit**
This kind of trend is usually not a top signal. The main players are quietly accumulating. What should you really be alert to? A surge in volume followed by an instant dump—that’s the real sign that harvesting has started.

**Second: If it dumps quickly but rises weakly, never catch a falling knife**
V-shaped reversals look tempting, but they’re usually just bait before the main exit. The thought “it can’t go any lower” is the most dangerous; the market specializes in punishing wishful thinking.

**Third: High volume at the top isn’t necessarily bad, but no volume is deadly**
Volume means positions are still changing hands, and bulls and bears are still battling. The scariest thing is high prices with no volume—the big players have already left, and what’s left is just air. $XRP

**Fourth: Don’t rush in on a single surge of volume at the bottom, watch for continuity**
A single day of huge volume doesn’t mean a breakout signal. It’s only when there’s sustained high volume over multiple days, especially after sideways consolidation, that it’s a true sign of accumulation.

**Fifth: The candlestick is just the surface; volume is the core**
Price is just a mirror of sentiment. To understand the real market, you must learn to read the story behind the volume.

**Sixth: The highest level is “emptiness”**
Without obsession, you can stay in cash and wait for the right chance; without greed, you can take profits and exit; without fear, you’ll have the courage to bet when it’s time to enter. Controlling your emotions is a hundred times harder than reading the trend. $AIA

Eight years, over 2,900 days and nights, from blindly stumbling around to calmly handling the market. I’ve traded those years for one answer: the people who actually make money in the market are never the smartest, but those who are the most patient and resilient.

What you lack isn’t opportunity, but direction.

It sounds nice, but how many people can actually stay out of the market and wait for opportunities? I definitely can't do it.

Lost all my hair but still made 36 million—no matter how you do the math, it still feels like a loss, haha. Mastering volume analysis is really impressive, but even if 90% of people understand it, they still can't pull it off; they'll still get wrecked by their emotions. Waiting on the sidelines for the right opportunity is the hardest part, seriously. Building up psychological strength is way harder than technical analysis. Turning 2,000 into 36 million... If only I had that kind of patience. Unfortunately, I'm the type who wants to bail at the first sign of red. The second point hit home—so many times I've tried to catch the falling knife during a V-shaped reversal, and the market really does prey on retail investors' psychology. Feels like the core of this theory is just: don’t be greedy, don’t rush, don’t be afraid. Sounds simple, but very few can actually do it. Volume is definitely more honest than price, but sadly, by the time you understand it, it's usually too late. Is losing your hair worth it? That’s the real question.

Alright, yet another legendary story, from two thousand to thirty-six million. Let me wipe my tears first. I have to say, point six really hit home. Staying in cash is the hardest part—it's a hundred times harder than getting the trend right, that's no lie. Losing handfuls of hair, the details are spot on, it's just too real. Wait, I still haven’t learned how to take profit and exit. Every time, I just get greedy and end up with nothing. Volume is definitely key. I’ve been burned several times before just by looking at the price. That last sentence stings a bit. What I really lack is patience and a sense of direction.

Oh my, from two thousand to thirty-six million, what kind of mental strength does that take? --- Everything you said is right, but I just can't do it—still too young. --- Point six is so true, being all cash feels the best, but as soon as I make a move, I start losing. --- The real question is, how much hair have you lost in eight years? Haha. --- I've known about volume analysis for a long time, the key is execution. --- Where are the people who actually followed this now? --- Feels like every time I think I get it, the market just kicks me. --- That last line, "what's missing is direction," is spot on. There are just too many opportunities.

Sounds nice, but the key is whether you can really survive drops like in 2018. --- I understand all six rules, but I just can't follow them and still get rekt. --- Isn't this the so-called survivor bias? --- Controlling emotions is a hundred times harder than reading trends—this really hit home for me. --- From two thousand to thirty-six million, that's basically dreamland, right? --- The key is you can stay out and wait for opportunities. As soon as I'm out, I FOMO right back in. --- Some people make money whether there's volume or not. Why am I so bad at this? --- Having strong patience does make money, but all I have is impulsiveness. --- If I'd known these things earlier, I would've avoided so many pitfalls. --- No matter how right the advice is, I still end up chasing at the top.

It sounds nice, but how many people can actually manage to have an empty position? I’ve never been able to do it myself. Everyone’s a genius in hindsight—why weren’t we this calm at the time? Out of these six points, I only really agree with the sixth one. The others still seem to depend a lot on luck. If you lose your hair, it can grow back, but if your account goes to zero, it’s over. Feels like telling a story—actually putting it into practice is a whole different thing. I’ve definitely been burned a few times by trading volume. Now I just can’t figure it out at all. Taking two thousand to thirty-six hundred, you make it sound so easy—there’s definitely some other income behind the scenes, right? The most tolerant? Ha, as soon as the market crashes, I can’t help but cut my losses. Everyone can talk about this theory, but the ones who actually make money never share their methods. Direction? The damn direction is down—how am I supposed to find one?
