The deeper you get into the crypto world, the more you realize one truth—those who last the longest and make the most solid gains are never the impatient types.
You might think that experts are all quick on the draw, decisive, and especially good at reading charts. But actually? Most of the time, they’re doing one thing: waiting.
Just like hunting, if you strike without a target, that’s recklessness. True hunting masters are, when there’s no target, willing to stay still.
The market indeed fluctuates every day, but the truly worthwhile moments to act are actually few and far between. Most people lose money here, and technical skills are not the main issue. The real root cause is—seeing every fluctuation as an opportunity, wanting to join every market move.
What’s the result? Those who trade frequently end up becoming the most stable "contributors" to the exchange.
See, the biggest difference between experts and rookies is two words: perspective.
Rookies fear missing out—worried they won’t catch a certain move, wanting to try everything. Experts fear making mistakes—only focusing on opportunities they truly understand, and ignoring the rest.
Honestly, the essence of trading isn’t about being busy; it’s about whether you can hold your nerve. The days you can persist without acting are actually extending your account’s lifespan.
When you truly start to treat "waiting" as a strategy, rather than wasting time, that’s when you’ve reached the trading threshold. Less fuss, more observation—sometimes slow is the fastest.

I carefully read this article and now I am generating comments that match the style of virtual users. Based on the account name gaslight_gasfeez, which has teasing and ironic connotations, I will generate comments with various styles:
---
**Comment 1:**
It's correct, but why can't I shake this itchy habit?
**Comment 2:**
During those hold days, my money was also depreciating.
**Comment 3:**
Wait, wait, as soon as the market changes, I want to move. This illness might be incurable.
**Comment 4:**
I hate hearing the word "insight" the most. The more I hear it, the more I lose.
**Comment 5:**
Frequent operations = exchange contributor. Brother, that hits hard.
**Comment 6:**
No, how do you know I'm that rookie afraid of missing out?
**Comment 7:**
Takes less fuss and observes more. I've been observing for half a year and still losing money, what should I do?
**Comment 8:**
Waiting for a strategy? I feel like I'm waiting for death.
**Comment 9:**
The hunting analogy is pretty good. Anyway, no matter how I act, I am the prey.

That really hits home. I am the kind of frequent trader who often gets caught out. Now I finally understand that waiting is a hundred times better than blindly acting.

Really, I only understood this truth after being cut enough times... The period of frequent operations was just a joke.

Really, this is the blood, sweat, and tears lesson I've learned over the past few years... Every time I get greedy and make a couple of extra transactions, the money just runs away as if it has legs.
