Fifty thousand yuan turning into nearly a million in three months sounds like a story, but I have to say—this is really not something you achieve by luck.
I've always believed that trading is not some kind of mysticism.
It's more like a craft. Watching the market charts every day, analyzing candlesticks, observing trading volume, pondering what the market is thinking—over time, many things naturally surface. If you understand some insights earlier, you can avoid many pitfalls.
For example, markets that rise rapidly but recover slowly. It sounds off, but in most cases, it's not a top but a clearing out. Truly bad markets often suddenly surge with volume, then suddenly drop—giving you no time to react.
And then there's the rebound after a sharp decline. When the drop is fierce and the bounce weak, it's basically because funds are withdrawing. The most common mistake at this point is thinking, "It's fallen so much, it should be about over." But the market never shows mercy.
Right now, I pay special attention to trading volume. Candlesticks are just the result; trading volume reveals the true attitude. High volume at a high level determines whether it can turn back; a sudden surge in volume at a low level doesn't mean you should get excited—many of the day's fluctuations are just fake moves.
Ultimately, it all boils down to one sentence: don’t always try to catch every market move. When it’s time to be out of the market, be out; when it’s time to act, do so decisively—no chasing, no holding, no reckless moves. Opportunities in the crypto world are always there; the hard part is staying clear-headed amid the volatility and noise. It’s not that you can’t learn, but that you haven’t yet reached the stage where you can truly understand. Get the rhythm right, and many things will naturally fall into place.

Volume is the real truth; candlestick charts are all deceptive. Realizing this later has caused me quite a few losses.

The aspect of trading volume has indeed been overlooked by many people. I also realized this only after being caught several times.

Half a million to one million? Easy to say, but I feel like I'm always stuck on judging the volume.

You can tell, after going through several rounds of crashes, I finally understood this stuff.

Sounds familiar, but I still have to be honest—most people should go to sleep after reading this and continue losing money tomorrow.

Exactly right, trading volume is truly a mirror that reveals all; so many people fall for it.
