There’s a 36-year-old guy from Zhejiang who started with a principal of 300,000 RMB and has been hustling in the crypto market for 6 years, eventually growing it to tens of millions.

No insider info, no luck factor. He survived in this market purely by coming up with a few simple, homegrown strategies.

He says, there’s really no magic trick to trading. Master just one of a few golden rules, and you’ll save yourself countless tuition fees; get three down, and you can basically outperform 90% of people.

**If it surges hard but drops slowly, don’t rush to exit.**

Prices spike and then slowly decline? Don’t panic. That’s often the main players shaking out weak hands, not a true market top. The real danger is when a high-volume surge is instantly followed by a plunge—that’s the real exit strategy at play.

**If it drops hard but climbs sluggishly, cut your losses quickly.**

Price suddenly tanks, then slowly crawls up? It looks like a bottom-fishing opportunity, but it’s actually a bull trap. Many people get caught by that hopeful “it should rebound now, right?” mindset.

**High volume at the top isn’t always bad; no volume is truly dangerous.**

Sustained high volume at the peak means there’s still hype and market sentiment is alive. But when volume dries up at the top, that’s the deadliest signal to run.

**Don’t get impulsive over a single day of high volume at the bottom; sustained volume is what counts.**

After a period of sideways, low-volume trading, look for several consecutive days of high volume—that’s the true signal to start building a position. A single day’s spike could just be bait.

He also has an interesting perspective:

Trading crypto is essentially trading emotion, and trading volume is the thermometer for sentiment. Candlesticks are just surface-level; only volume shows how many people are actually participating and believing. If you understand volume, you can spot turning points in sentiment ahead of time.

As for the highest level of trading? He sums it up in three words: **No Talent**.

No attachment—be in cash when you need to, don’t force it;
No greed—don’t chase pumps, let go of opportunities that aren’t yours;
No fear—have the guts to act when it’s time.

This mindset isn’t innate—it’s forged through experience.

The market never lacks opportunities; what’s missing is the ability to keep your cool at critical moments.

What really separates people is never talent, but whether you can control yourself and not let emotions lead you by the nose.
