#数字资产市场动态 In the dead of night, screens flicker, and account numbers are plunging. Back then, my understanding of the market was still in the realm of luck and intuition, and the results speak for themselves—completely wiped out.
The turning point came suddenly. On a losing winter night, I started reviewing every mistake in my trades. Gradually, I realized a harsh truth: the market never pities reckless people; it only rewards those who come prepared.
So I set four bottom lines for myself and stuck to them for half a year, completely transforming my trading system:
**Prioritize Trends**—Abandon chasing the daily K's fluctuations, focus only on the big picture of weekly and monthly K-lines. I avoid touching declining projects, no matter how tempting they seem. This rule has saved me countless times.
**Phased Positioning**—Start with very small positions (I call them "scouts"), and once the signal is confirmed, gradually increase the main position. This way, I can seize opportunities while locking in risk.
**Stop-Loss as a Lifesaver**—If a single loss reaches 3% of the account, it must be cut. No bargaining. If a daily drawdown exceeds 5%, I force myself to rest and stop gambling.
**At Least Three Signals Resonance**—Seeing one technical indicator signal is far from enough. My habit is to wait until at least three independent indicators point in the same direction before taking action. This requirement may sound strict, but it filters out a lot of noisy trades.
Recently, a friend complained to me that he went all-in on a certain coin and got trapped. The hardest part was that he understood the importance of stop-loss but couldn't execute it. He said, "I understand the principle, but I can't see clearly when to cut."
I can understand that feeling. But this is the market testing your psychological resilience. True winners are not those who judge perfectly, but those who can admit mistakes quickly and strictly follow discipline when errors occur.
Honestly, the numbers in your account are not the most important thing. What matters is the cognitive system you've built during this process—when to act, when to wait, when to cut losses, how to distinguish noise from real signals. These are things you can only truly learn through repeated market testing.
The market is brewing, but don’t rush blindly. It rewards those who are well-prepared and punishes hasty decisions mercilessly.

That's right, the most frustrating thing is being unable to cross that hurdle.

I understand the reasoning, but I just have quick hands and slow brain, so I still have to take some losses.

I understand the reasoning, but being unable to execute it really hurts.
