In this crypto space, there are people shouting 'financial freedom' every day, only to turn around and be left with nothing but their underwear. I have been in this for ten years, dodging the big pits since the 312 crash and retreating unscathed from last year's LUNA collapse, relying not on luck - but on these 8 iron laws engraved in my bones. Today, I'm sharing from the heart; those who understand can at least save half a year's salary in losses.

1. Don’t just stare at the K-line; the market is your 'weather forecast'.

The most common mistake beginners make is to focus solely on the daily K-line of a single coin and dare to go all in. I have seen too many people scream 'it's over' upon seeing a long upper shadow, only for it to surge directly the next day - why? Because they didn't look at the 30-minute capital movements and didn’t check if the market was stabilizing.


Short-term trading is like guerrilla warfare; individual coins are your strongholds, and the market is the battlefield. If the winds are not favorable, it doesn’t matter how good your stronghold looks, you must retreat. Remember: 30-minute K-lines reveal capital sentiments, market trends determine entry timing, and the resonance of both is the real opportunity.

2. Going against the trend? It's like dancing on the edge of a knife.

The dumbest thing in the crypto space is thinking, 'I think it's going to rise.' Trends, once formed, are like a rolling stone down the hill; no one can catch it with bare hands.


When prices are rising, don't guess the peak; when prices are falling, don't try to catch the bottom. Some people say, 'I just don't believe it won't bounce back,' only to hold on until liquidation while still being stubborn. I have seen too many 'contrarian heroes' end up as cannon fodder on the K-line chart.
If the trend is right, you can make money even with your eyes closed; if the trend is wrong, no matter how good the technical analysis, it’s all useless.

3. Hotspots are ATMs, while obscure coins are crematoriums.

If you want to make money trading coins, you must be a 'trend chaser' - but you must chase the real opportunity, not the guise of a scam.
Look at last year's AI concept coins and this year's Layer 2 track; wherever the hotspots are, capital will flow there. In short-term trading, the closer you are to the hotspot, the greater the probability of making money; waiting for an obscure coin is likely to result in a 'delisting notice.'


How to judge a true hotspot? Look at the continuity of capital inflow, the speed of new listings on leading exchanges, and the heat of community discussions - don’t listen to 'insider information'; the market is always more honest than the news.

4. Write a script before trading; don't let your hands move faster than your brain.

'Plan your trade, trade your plan' - I recite this three times every day before the market opens.
Before placing an order, ask yourself three questions: Where is the entry point? What is the stop-loss line? At what position should I take profits? If you can't clarify these, don't act. The crypto space is full of opportunities, but what’s lacking is the discipline to control your hands.


I have seen too many people getting excited by price fluctuations in the market and impulsively jumping in, only to find they don't even know what the coins they bought are for. Remember: Impulsiveness is the devil, and your account balance is its sacrifice.

5. First set the direction, then choose the coins - don’t reverse the order.

Newbies love to first look at 'which coin looks good', and then check 'how the market is doing'. This is like driving by stepping on the gas first and then looking at the steering wheel - it's a miracle if you don't crash.


The correct logic should be: first judge whether the overall market is bullish or bearish, then see which sector is leading the way, and finally select the strongest one from that sector. If the direction is right, even picking something mediocre can yield benefits; if the direction is wrong, even buying the leader will lead to losses.
Remember: The market is the way, sectors are the techniques, and individual coins are the tools - if the way is wrong, no matter how good the techniques and tools are, they won't help.

6. Don't be a 'bottom-fishing hero', be a 'trend-following person'.

People always ask me: 'This coin has dropped 90%, can I buy the dip now?' I always reply: 'How do you know it won't drop 99%?'
Coin prices always move towards the path of least resistance. A rising coin indicates that buying pressure is stronger than selling pressure, and inertia will carry it further up; a coin that keeps falling has a mountain of selling pressure, and any rebound is just a chance for trapped investors to escape.


In my ten years, I made ten times more by 'chasing the highs' than by 'catching the lows'. This is not to encourage blind chasing of highs, but to chase 'increases supported by sustained funding' - trading volume doesn't lie.

7. After a big gain or a big loss, you must stop for three days.

This is a lesson I learned with real money: after doubling your investment, people get carried away, thinking they are 'crypto geniuses'; losses are sure to follow. After a liquidation, people panic, seeing everything as a trap, and their operations become distorted.


At this point, the best thing to do is not to add to your position for revenge, but to close the software and go for a walk. When you look back at your trades, you will find that big gains often come not from your skills but from market opportunities; big losses don't necessarily mean bad luck but are often caused by greed.
Stay out for three days, reset your mindset, and your accuracy will increase by at least 30% when you act again.

Finally, let me say something heartfelt:

The core of making money in the crypto space has never been about 'knowing how many techniques' but rather 'how much discipline you can execute.'
Those who make stable profits all have their own trading systems - it helps filter out noise, mark key positions, and even 'slap you in the face' when you want to mess around.


99% of people lose not because they are stupid, but because they lack a system and rely solely on feelings.
If you are still trading based on 'hearing news' and 'gut feelings', I advise you to stop first - build your own 'battle map' before entering the battlefield.#GENIUS稳定币法案 #币安HODLer空投C
