My cryptocurrency trading journey in 2025 was full of surprises. From Bitcoin reaching new highs at the beginning of the year to various tokens rotating performance in the second half, I experienced the entire cycle of ups and downs on a major exchange. The biggest takeaway? Risk management comes first. I strictly followed my stop-loss plan this year, avoiding several major drawdowns. At the same time, I used grid trading and spot holdings to seize the upward opportunities of SOL and BNB, ultimately achieving an overall return of over 150%. The platform’s low fees, fast execution, and rich trading tools indeed improved my operational efficiency. A painful lesson is: never get carried away by FOMO and chase high prices. Look more at on-chain data, pay attention to macro environment changes—that’s the key to winning. Looking ahead to 2026, I will still stick to long-term value investing and continue holding quality projects. Thanks for the growth and companionship this year~

150%？Bro, is this number real or backtested... Stop-loss is easy to say but really hard to do. I'm the kind of noob who gets nervous when prices drop. Grid trading is indeed awesome, but tuning the parameters is too annoying. I've also fallen for the FOMO trap. Now, when I see a surge, I actually want to run away.

150%? Why am I only at 50%? Is it because I’m too careless or because you’re just lucky haha

150%？ How is that achieved? Share some ideas. ---- Stop-loss is really well said. I learned the hard way last year after being caught by FOMO several times. ---- Grid trading to bottom out SOL is indeed good, but I still need to learn more about risk management. ---- Avoiding drawdowns is the real skill; it's much more reliable than chasing high prices for quick profits. ---- I haven't been paying enough attention to on-chain data, no wonder I always realize things too late. ---- I also want to try the long-term holding of quality projects, but my mindset is a bit impatient. ---- Low fees + fast transactions, hearing you say that really can save a lot of costs.

Stop-loss strategies are indeed tough, unlike last year when I was still chasing highs and selling lows haha. This guy is right; on-chain data really needs to be looked at more. I've fallen into the FOMO trap... 150%... I need to reflect on my own trading actions.

150% Wow, big shot move. Why don’t I have this luck? --- Stop-loss is really amazing. I haven’t mastered this part this year, and I’m still crawling out of the bottom-fishing pit. --- I need to learn about grid trading. It feels like cheating. The SOL wave really made a killing. --- I have a lot of say about FOMO. How many times did I chase high and recover... Now looking at on-chain data, I have to think twice. --- Did it break through 150? Bro, your operation is impressive. Share your stop-loss ratio, please. --- Platform fees are really low and attractive, but it still depends on personal operation. No matter how good the tools are, you need to know how to use them. --- Continuing value investing in 2026? I’m optimistic. It’s much more reliable than those who chase new coins every day.
