After trading for so many years, I’ve realized a principle—making money doesn’t rely on frequent operations; the key is to make fewer mistakes and focus on the essentials. Instead of watching the market every day, it’s better to summarize the most practical experiences. These 10 plain truths, if executed properly, will show results.

Account below 200,000? Don’t think about trading every day just for excitement. If you can catch a main upward wave in a year, that’s enough profit. If you trade frequently, transaction fees and slippage will eat up most of your profits.

How to develop technical skills? Practice with a demo account first. Real trading and demo are different; if you impulsively lose real money, your mindset will collapse. Losing in a demo account is okay; it’s perfect for honing your mentality.

Don’t get too excited when good news comes out. Usually, the actual realization of news hits at the high point. The next day’s gap-up can be the best escape opportunity. Many people fall into this trap.

Be cautious before holidays. Liquidity drops suddenly, and there are fewer counterparties. Reducing positions in advance is always more comfortable than stopping losses afterward.

Always keep cash for mid-term trading. Sell in batches during rises, buy slowly during dips. Always have some reserve funds, so your mindset remains stable.

For short-term trading, focus only on active coins. Coins with little trading volume are useless no matter how good the technicals. Choose the right track; simple indicators are often more effective.

Understand the rhythm of declines. Slow declines lead to slow rebounds; sharp declines lead to quick rebounds. If you get this right, your trading approach becomes much clearer.

Admit mistakes. Stop-loss is not a failure; it’s a necessary measure to protect your principal.

For short-term trading, watch the 15-minute K-line chart; too many cycles will only confuse you. Simple methods are often the most effective.

Don’t be greedy with too many methods. Master one or two well; that’s far better than trying ten superficially. In the end, the crypto market is about discipline and execution; luck is just a side character.
