What qualities does an excellent trader possess? Wealth is a manifestation of one's energetic state. An excellent trader has a stable energetic state combined with appropriate systematic technical operations, making the accumulation of wealth in the crypto space inevitable and effortless. Making money is easy because you don’t even need to earn it; you are wealth itself. Your state and energy level determine your experiences and rewards.

According to David Hawkins' theory of levels of consciousness (which categorizes human consciousness energy into levels from 1 to 1000, with 200 being the dividing line between positive and negative energy), combined with the high volatility, high risk, and psychological challenges of cryptocurrency trading.

Traders need to maintain a positive energy level above 200 for a long time and focus on cultivating core states such as courage (200), calmness (250), and proactivity (310).

The following is a specific analysis and practical suggestions:

⚖️ 1. The level of positive energy that traders must maintain (200+)

Courage (200) - Survival Bottom Line

Core Role: Hawkins believes that courage is a "watershed" in the energy hierarchy, corresponding to the "ability to have confidence and seize opportunities." In the cryptocurrency circle, courage is reflected as:

Decisively execute strategies: buy the dip as planned during a crash, calmly take profits during a surge, and avoid hesitation that leads to missing out or being trapped.

Accepting Loss Pressure: Accepting stop-losses is part of trading, avoiding fear or revenge trading due to a single loss.

Example: When Bitcoin crashes by 20%, the courage level allows traders to rationally analyze whether it is a technical correction rather than a systemic risk, instead of panicking and selling.

Calmness (250) - The key to resisting market noise

Energy characteristics: calm, objective, not attached to results.

Trading Scenario Application:

Facing FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) emotions: When the market is frantically chasing altcoins, a calm state helps traders stick to their original strategy and refuse to follow irrational trends.

Managing floating losses: Avoid frequent adjustments to positions due to short-term fluctuations, reducing transaction fee losses and emotional exhaustion.

Proactivity (310) — The driving force behind long-term profitability

Core values: proactive learning, adjusting strategies, seizing opportunities.

Trading Practice:

Continue to research on-chain data and technical indicators, rather than relying on others' calls.

Actively position undervalued assets (such as platform tokens and infrastructure tokens) in a bear market, rather than passively waiting.

⚠️ 2. Negative Energy Levels to Avoid (<200) and Their Harms

Fear (100) → Leads to panic selling

When the energy is below 200, fear can trigger irrational actions: such as panic selling, not daring to buy at the bottom, and missing rebound opportunities.

Example: During the LUNA crash in 2022, fear-driven sell-offs exacerbated the liquidity crisis, while the calm ones captured the rebound after the sharp decline.

Desire (125) → Triggering irrational chasing of rising prices

It is manifested as leveraging to chase highs, excessive trading, and neglecting risk management. Hawkins pointed out that desire is a "consumptive state," accompanied by a sharp drop in energy following short-term excitement.

Typical scenario: When MEME coins surge, the desire drives investors to fully invest, ultimately trapping them at the peak.

Anger (150) → Trigger retaliatory trading

After suffering losses, opening positions frequently and increasing leverage in an attempt to "recoup losses" leads to a spiral of losses. Hawkins emphasizes that anger significantly degrades the quality of decision-making.

🔄 3. Dynamic Strategies for Enhancing Energy Levels

From Courage to Composure: Building a "Anti-Fragile" System

Rule-based trading: preset stop-loss points, position ratios, replacing emotional decisions with discipline;

Stress Test: Simulate black swan events (such as exchange failures, sudden policy changes) and develop response plans in advance.

From Calmness to Proactivity: Cognitive Upgrading and Community Empowerment

Deep Learning: Researching blockchain underlying technologies (such as ZK-Rollup, sharding) to identify long-term value targets;

High-energy communities: Join quality discussion groups (such as Gitcoin governance community, ETH research forum), and stay away from pump groups.

Design of "anchor points" to avoid energy drop

Daily Review: Record emotional states during trading (such as "panic ordering" / "greed holding"), related to Hawkins level self-assessment;

Energy replenishment: Engaging with high-energy content (such as "Mastering Bitcoin"), meditation practices, and reducing social media noise.

💎 Conclusion and the Ultimate State of High-Energy Traders

Top traders (such as hedge fund founders) often stabilize at the Wise (400) or Calm (600) levels:

Wisdom (400): Penetrate market noise and identify true innovation (such as early recognition of the value of the DeFi protocol Uniswap);

Equanimity (600): Profits and losses do not disturb the core; focus on system optimization rather than single results, as exemplified by Buffett's extreme interpretation of "be greedy when others are fearful."

Energy is combat power: In the 24/7 high-pressure battlefield of the cryptocurrency world, energy management is more decisive for long-term survival than technical analysis. Only by continuously anchoring at 200+ levels can one become the ultimate winner in the transition between bull and bear markets.
