A few years ago, my business crashed and I ended up deep in debt.

Yesterday, looking at the numbers popping up in my account—a net profit of 320,000 in a single day—I suddenly realized that all those dinner parties, networking, and face-saving projects no longer mattered to me.

Carrying debt and rolling around in the crypto market feels like paddling a broken boat through rapids. The boat is broken, but the oars are still in my hands.

This is my eighth year in this industry. The initial 100,000 I started with was cobbled together through borrowing, and now I can see over 50 million on my account.

Don’t overthink it. I don’t have any insider info, nor did I catch any so-called 100x coin miracle. I just kept executing one seemingly stupid strategy, like a machine, over and over again.

This road is damn hard. I’ve been liquidated, cut losses, and stared at charts late into the night questioning my life. It took eight years to gradually figure things out.

For over 3,000 days and nights, I focused on one thing: Treating trading like leveling up in a game, pushing through one stage at a time.

Now, let me share a few survival rules I’ve summed up:

**Look at volume before price.**
If the price spikes sharply but pullbacks are mild, it’s likely someone is quietly accumulating. If there’s a sudden pump followed by a crash, that’s when the real dumping begins.

**Flash crashes are worse than slow declines.**
If it drops fast and rises slow, chances are someone is unloading. A rebound after a flash crash? Don’t touch it—that’s a trap.

**Low volume at the top is more dangerous than high volume.**
A volume spike at the top doesn’t mean it’ll crash immediately, but if it consolidates at a high with shrinking volume for a while, that’s the real sign of a coming storm.

**Wait for a second confirmation to build a bottom position.**
The first volume spike doesn’t count. Wait for a period of choppy, low-volume consolidation, and then another volume spike upward—that’s the real signal to enter.

**Candlesticks are appearances; volume is the real language.**
All emotions are hidden in trading volume: shrinking volume means apathy, surging volume means money is moving. Understanding volume is understanding the pulse of market sentiment.

**Only when your mindset is empty are you truly top-tier.**
Dare to stay in cash, don’t stubbornly hold; don’t chase highs, don’t get greedy; don’t panic, dare to catch the knife when there’s blood in the streets.

This isn’t a Zen “let it be” attitude—it’s real trading psychology.

In this market, opportunities are never lacking. What’s lacking is a stable mindset and flawless execution.

Most people don’t lose to speed, but to panic as they stumble blindly in the dark.

I’ve fallen into enough pits, so I’m willing to share these things.

The market is already building up momentum—don’t keep stumbling around in the dark alone. #ETH巨鲸增持 $ETH
