Many people have been in the cryptocurrency space for several years, only to quietly exit in the end, not because they missed the bull market, but because they succumbed to the most basic mistakes.

I have always believed that the dumbest way to trade cryptocurrencies is often the most effective. But this path is too slow, too tedious, and the vast majority of people cannot stick with it.

Because they can never escape these three major 'common ailments':

⚠️ The first is chasing prices and selling on dips. As soon as they see a coin rise, they rush in, fantasizing that it will continue to soar, only to buy at a high point, panic when it drops, and miss the rebound. Only those who can get used to buying during declines and selling at peaks truly reap the benefits of the cycle.

⚠️ The second is heavily betting on direction. The direction may be right, but being shaken out by the main force's washout after a few rounds is not a matter of wrong judgment, but of not being able to hold on.

⚠️ The third is emotional full investment. When excited, they go all in, losing flexibility in adjusting their positions. Even if they are right, they can't move their funds, and when the opportunity arises, they can only be anxious.

Ultimately, in the cryptocurrency space, what loses is never the market, but the habits.

I have summarized a set of six-character principles for short-term trading, the logic is simple, yet easily overlooked:

1. High-level consolidation is not over; new highs are often still to come; low-level fluctuations are hard to stop and can easily probe further lows. Do not act until the market changes.

2. Do not enter the market when it's in sideways movement. Most people die in consolidation.

3. Buy on a bearish daily close, sell on a bullish close. Following market sentiment surpasses subjective judgment.

4. Slow declines are hard to bounce back; sharp declines are easy to rebound. Understanding the rhythm is key to seizing opportunities.

5. Build positions like a pyramid, enter in batches, and always leave some bullets.

6. After big rises and falls, there will definitely be consolidation, and after consolidation, there will definitely be a market change. Do not bet at extreme positions; wait for signals before acting.

The market is not short of opportunities, but rather those who can endure, wait, observe, and survive.
