It's that time of year again when I love to look at the annual summaries of major exchanges. During daily trading, I hardly have time to record everything—frequent operations, market fluctuations, trying out various features. Looking back over the year, there aren't actually that many memorable moments.

Recently, a leading exchange also released its 2025 annual report. These kinds of reports are quite interesting—they clearly show your entire year's trading footprint, operational habits, and even reveal trading patterns you might not have noticed before. For many people, an annual review is not just about statistics; it's more like a reflection on their trading style.

Sometimes, through these data, you can identify your strengths and weaknesses, which can be very helpful for adjusting your future trading strategies.

Ha, after reading the annual report, I found that my loss records are quite detailed. I've been trading so frequently this year, but I haven't made much money. The annual summary is really eye-opening, showing which pitfalls I fell into again. Every time I say I want to optimize my strategy, but in the end, I’m still just trading crypto the same old way. The data in this report is quite honest; you can easily see who is the big earner and who is the newbie getting reaped. I also looked, and it seems that more than half of my trades were spent in losses. Basically, it’s just telling you that greed kills.

After reading the annual report, my mind is blank, and I don't want to review the trading records at all. My trading footprint can be summed up in one word: disastrous. The annual summary is just a reflection meeting, looking at the data is heartbreaking. A whole year of losing money quickly and earning slowly, this is my trading pattern. The report says it has identified advantages, but I only realize how inexperienced I am.

Here are a few comments with different styles: --- Once the annual report came out, I started regretting it—just a record of losses haha --- In the face of data, there's nowhere to hide, and I realize how frequently I trade --- After reading the report, I realize I have no real advantage, just living on luck --- Every time I try to improve through review, I fall back into the old routines the next year, cycle of curses --- It's interesting, but seeing my trading records makes me feel a bit socially dead --- I just want to know how the exchange calculates this; I feel like there's a problem with the data --- No point in reflection, I'll keep partying next year --- These reports are basically just a psychological comfort for oneself

I get emotional every time I see the annual report and suffer huge losses. I always say I need to reflect, but the next year it's the same old story. The annual report data is heartbreaking; turns out I'm only at this level. Looking at others' data makes me feel FOMO again. I'm too embarrassed to look at my own trading records. Only after a year do I realize I've been messing around with my trades.

Haha, I just finished watching and realized I lost a lot last year from frequent bottom-fishing. I took a quick look at the data and felt a bit social anxious, but I did notice some habitual pitfalls in my operations. Annual reports are like looking in a mirror; sometimes you don't want to see them, but they are quite helpful. My trading history is probably a blood and tears story; better not to review it. Only through this comparison did I understand why I keep losing—my operations never stopped.

Damn, I was stunned when my annual report came out, all losses haha Only by looking at the data did I realize how much I love chasing highs and killing lows... need to change The most heartbreaking part of the annual summary is discovering that I have a super high trading frequency but poor returns After reading my report, I only have one feeling: I need to practice more In the face of data, there's nowhere to hide. A year's "brilliant operations" are fully exposed After reading the report, I just want to ask myself, what was I thinking all year? The harshest part of the annual review is seeing clearly how much I can trade and how much I can lose
