#数字资产动态追踪 Eight years of digital asset trading, from a novice to a portfolio worth tens of millions, during which I’ve stepped on many pitfalls. Today I’ll summarize some core insights, hoping to help you avoid some detours in this market.
If you’ve been in the market for over a year and still stuck at the million mark, these methodologies are worth serious consideration.
**When capital is limited, focus on waiting for the main upward wave**
With less than 200,000 yuan, don’t think about daily trading. The real way to make money is patience—waiting for the core upward trend to emerge. Capturing this once is far more satisfying than frequent trades throughout the year. Don’t always hold a full position; always keep some flexibility.
**Practice on a demo account before real trading**
Virtual accounts can fail endlessly, but a big loss with real money might mean the end. Deep understanding and psychological preparation should always come before real capital investment. This isn’t conservatism; it’s the prerequisite for longevity.
**Good news often leads to reversals**
Major policy positives often lead to a high open the next day, which is usually a sign to sell. Greedy traders wanting the last bite often end up with a decline. Knowing when to take profits is a skill more important than knowing when to buy.
**Act a week before important holidays**
Historical experience shows that there’s often selling pressure before long holidays. It’s better to reduce or even clear positions early, so you can enjoy the holiday peacefully and avoid sudden drops.
**Mid-term should be rolling, always keep cash**
Sell in parts during upward moves, buy in parts during dips, keep the position active. Always have some cash on hand—more sustainable than being fully invested and stuck.
**For short-term trading, focus on two things: volume and chart patterns**
Coins with high volatility and active trading volume are worth short-term trading. Coins without volume or rhythm are not worth watching, no matter how you look at them.
**The speed of decline determines the strength of the rebound**
Slow declines often lead to tepid rebounds; rapid drops tend to rebound fiercely. Understanding the rhythm of falling helps judge when to bottom out and when to avoid.
**Accept losses, stop-loss is your life-saving token**
Always set a stop-loss for each trade; don’t hold on stubbornly. Staying alive is the key to turning things around. Protect your capital first, then you can continue playing in this market.
**15-minute K-line + KDJ indicator are enough**
For short-term trading, don’t overcomplicate your tools. Focus on key levels in small cycles, use simple indicators for confirmation, and buy/sell signals will come naturally.
**Mastering one set of methods is more powerful than ten**
Rather than greedily learning many techniques, deeply master two or three truly effective methods. Practice makes perfect—this is the secret to surviving longer in the crypto market.

The part about stop-loss hit hits too close to home; it's the blood, sweat, and tears lesson I learned from not doing it well.

This point about stop-loss hit hits home; I've seen too many people hold on stubbornly until liquidation.

Honestly, this methodology is a hard-earned lesson learned through blood, sweat, and tears.

Honestly, the phrase "full position dead stake" hit me hard; that's how I messed up before.

Talking about stop-losses so harshly, but it really is a lifesaver.

Stop-loss lessons I learned the hard way, once holding on and going straight to zero.

Honestly, the phrase "full position hold tight" hit me hard. Now it feels much better to keep some bullets in hand.

Good news, I now believe in running at the open when there's a gap up. I’ve been greedy and paid the price many times during declines before.
---
It took 8 years to reach this level? In our industry, it looks simple but in reality, we're just paying tuition fees.
---
For short-term trading, just watch the charts and patterns. But I feel these two indicators still need to be combined with other tools... Can they be reliable used alone?
---
Those who trade crypto every day are either not afraid of losing because their accounts are small, or they just want to give money to the exchanges.
---
I wonder why I didn’t think of reducing positions before holidays. Every time, I get caught during a holiday.

Practicing on a demo account is indeed important, but some things can only be truly understood with real money and the fear that comes with it.

The pain of stop-loss is too real; so many people get eliminated just because they stubbornly hold on.

The stop-loss part is really well explained; too many people just hold on stubbornly and then get eliminated directly.
