This month, I frequently ranked in the top three, always following the same routine—selecting a potential coin, sharing my views, and then following up with my holdings. The problem is, almost every time I exited at a high, and the profits were mostly wiped out.

Now I realize a problem: short-term quick trades may boost rankings, but the risks are too high. So I am starting to adjust my strategy, shifting towards finding projects worth holding long-term. I have already given public advice on several coins, and next, I plan to focus more on extending the holding period. This is not about giving up trading, but about learning true patience in the market.

The story of high-level bagholders has always been like this in the rankings. Making quick gains and losing just as fast, short-term trading is indeed exciting but also risky. This time shifting to long-term holding is the right move, at least it can stabilize the mindset a bit. But to be honest, going from chasing rankings to chasing returns, the real challenge is whether you can truly hold on.

The high-position bagholder has appeared. This realization comes a bit late. --- Speaking nicely, isn't it just because you're afraid of being trapped... --- What’s the point of those virtual titles on the leaderboard? Making money is the real king. --- From short-term bloodshed to long-term bottom fishing, it’s a forced upgrade. --- Long-term holding? First see if you can survive the next round of sharp decline. --- This is the fate of retail investors: wandering at high levels, awakening at low levels. --- Got it, it’s just about stop-loss, wrapped up in a pretty literary way. --- Patience is forced; the lessons learned from losing money.

The high-level bagholder shares his experience; this wave of awakening is probably timely enough. --- Quick in and out trading ranks high, but it all gets wiped out... I've seen this pattern too many times. --- True patience? Sounds good, but in reality, it's just fear of being trapped. --- Adjusting strategies sounds good, but the key is how long can you stick to it? --- From high-frequency trading to long-term holding, this transition is quite sudden. --- Lessons learned, for sure, but next time the high-level temptation comes, can you hold on? --- This story sounds like he's finally waking up; hopefully, it's not just another round of hype.

High-level bagholder, huh? Haha, you made me laugh to death. --- Ranking high in the short term is satisfying, but hurting your own people like this is really not very decent. --- Wait, now you're switching to long-term? Why wasn't there this "patience" before? --- Another moment of self-face-slapping, but at least there's the courage to correct it. --- What sounds nice as patience is actually just unable to cut anymore, haha. --- Alright, let's see how long you can stick to it. Don't lose control again when the time comes. --- I've seen this plot too many times. I hope you don't repeat it. --- The feeling of sincere remorse is much more reliable than relying on hype rankings before.

Selling the top at high levels is really the best move; the feeling of being repeatedly trapped is too uncomfortable. --- In short-term rankings, the top rankings are the most important. The realization that real gold and silver matter came a bit late, huh? --- Wait, you said you've adjusted your strategy? Are the ones you pushed earlier still in your hands? --- Long-term holding sounds easy, but being able to withstand the pullback is the real skill. --- This reflection is pretty good; much better than those who only blow hot air about signals. --- If you ask me, it still depends on the fundamentals. Relying solely on patience can't withstand a bear market.
