Having navigated the crypto world for many years, many people ask me how I view the market. Instead of discussing complex techniques, I’d rather summarize 6 most practical trading iron laws—these are more powerful than any indicator:
**1. Rapid Rise and Slow Fall = Accumulation** A fierce upward move with a slow decline indicates big funds quietly building positions. Don’t panic at dips; watch the rhythm.
**2. Fast Drop and Slow Rise = Distribution** A sharp decline followed by a weak rebound is a signal that the main players are pulling out. It’s easy to pick up cheap coins then, but you risk becoming the bagholder.
**3. Volume at the Top = Possible Continuation; No Volume at the Top = Exit Quickly** Volume determines direction—this isn’t empty talk. With volume, there’s potential; without volume, it’s the end of the strong move.
**4. Be Cautious with Volume at the Bottom; Sustained Volume Is More Reliable** A single spike in volume might be a trap; multiple volume increases indicate genuine consensus forming.
**5. Trading Crypto Is Actually Trading Emotions** Forget complicated candlestick theories; focus on market psychology itself. Volume is the most direct mirror of consensus.
**6. "Nothing" Equals Everything** Without obsession, greed, or fear, your win rate can truly improve. Those who can stay in cash and wait for opportunities are the ones who deserve to participate in big trends.
Ultimately, the only real opponent in trading is your own mind. Macro data, platform announcements, main force pushes… these are just appearances. The true variables are always inside you.

Article 6 is the real deal, everything else is nonsense.

That's right, it's just the inner demon causing trouble. Last time, I almost stubbornly held on at the top without volume, but luckily I woke up in time.

It's the same old story; maintaining the right mindset is indeed the hardest. But how many people who talk about it actually do it...
