Why do you always fall when you buy and rise when you sell? Why does your account always fluctuate like a roller coaster? The answer to this problem is not in the market itself, but in your trading system.

Many people lack not luck, but a solid underlying logic that can truly survive and continuously make money. Here are 10 proven trading principles tested through market experience, with a win rate of over 90%:

**1. Protect low-cost chips** - Don't be scared by manipulative traders knocking down the price; maintaining firm conviction is key.

**2. Chasing rises and selling dips is a big taboo** - When the major trend is positive, building positions gradually is more stable than chasing the peak, with lower costs and higher returns.

**3. Reasonably allocate profits** - Maximize the release of funds; avoid constantly adding to positions and depositing more capital.

**4. Keep a positive mindset** - Sell on rapid rises, hold during sharp declines. Avoid speculation, impatience, greed, and fear. Be prepared at every step.

**5. Distinguish between ambush and secondary game** - The primary market relies on experience and judgment of coin prospects; the secondary market depends on technical analysis and information to follow the trend. Don't confuse the two.

**6. Layered building and selling** - Gradually widen the price range to effectively control risk and profit ratios.

**7. Pay attention to linkage effects** - Watch the market trends of coins while also monitoring other cryptocurrencies. $PEPE, $ETH, and others are interconnected within the ecosystem; understanding these complex relationships is essential.

**8. Reasonable allocation of positions** - Balance hot coins and value coins. Value coins should be stable and resilient; hot coins are highly volatile and can skyrocket or zero out.

**9. Keep sufficient cash reserves** - Holding coins, having funds in your account, and cash in your pocket are the safest configurations. Going all-in is deadly; risk control and capital allocation determine your ultimate success or failure.

**10. Master basic operations** - Remember the high and low points each time as references, develop habits of recording and summarizing, and cultivate the ability to filter information.

These are practical experiences for truly surviving in the cryptocurrency market. Each one is derived from real account trading. Friends who want to turn things around, compare your trading logs and see which areas still need adjustment.

That's quite true, but execution is really difficult. I always fail at the mindset stage; when prices surge rapidly, I get carried away and sell everything impulsively.

That's right, but I think the most crucial point is item 9. Too many people go all-in and end up getting eliminated directly. Right now, I have half of my coins in the account, some money left in the account, and some stored in my pocket. I feel like my sleep quality has improved haha. But honestly, knowing these things and actually doing them are two different things... I'm still reviewing my trading records to find loopholes.

That's correct, but isn't claiming a 90% win rate a bit exaggerated? I've been following for half a year, and the maximum is only 60%, and that was during a good market.

Honestly, item 9 hit me hard. I lost a five-figure amount in that all-in bet. This thing, to be honest, is all about self-discipline. Most people just can't do it. What I fear the most is still the mindset part. When prices surge rapidly, my hands start to shake. I just realized that layered position building is the way to go. Before, I was just all-in and waiting to die. Wow, feels like looking in the mirror, and I've been harvested again. Is it a system problem? No, I'm just a gambling dog, there's no system to speak of. Item 7 is something I need to think about carefully. I really didn't realize the importance of ecosystem linkage. That's right, developing a habit of recording can save lives. I’ve been losing because I was too lazy to do it. I've always been doing the coin allocation backwards. No wonder I kept getting caught. This article is worth reading repeatedly. Every time I read it, I feel like I’ve been awakened again.

It's no wonder it drops right after you buy; it's your own fault for not having a system. Eventually, you'll have to pay for a full house. Gradually building a position has saved me several times. Hold onto the coins you believe in, don't be scared off by the sell-offs. Cash reserves are really key; otherwise, you won't be able to take advantage when the market comes.

That's quite right, but most people still chase gains and sell off when they see a rise, including myself... "All-in will definitely die" really hit home, a blood and tears lesson. Holding low-priced chips easily? That's a psychological battle, my friend. Gradually building a position sounds easy, but executing it is extremely difficult; as soon as it drops, you want to buy the dip. Number 8 hits the hardest; my hot coin pool has long turned to dust, haha. All ten of these are truly earned with real money; the problem is that knowing and doing are worlds apart. By the way, how long have you been sticking to recording the highs and lows?

That's right, it's all about mindset and lack of a system. All-in really leads to death; I have deep experience with this. People who can't hold onto low-priced chips are often those who are afraid to add more. Those who make money are usually the ones who earn it during boring times.

That's right, it's all about mindset and systems. I've been reviewing these recently. Going all-in is really a big taboo; my previous losses were all because of this. Holding onto low-priced chips tightly, now I truly understand. Seeing the layered position building again, why do I always go all-in in one shot? Oh my god, I actually hit all of them, and now I understand. I haven't done any of these ten points well, no wonder I always operate in the opposite direction. The key is that I still don't have a trading log; I need to develop the habit.

It's ridiculous. I checked everything and found that I did everything backwards, haha.

*adjusts alchemical instruments* 90% win rate claims always trigger my risk-adjusted paranoia... the mathematical beauty here is undeniable tho—layered position sizing is basically protocol equilibrium for retail traders, ngl.
