#密码资产动态追踪 I've been on the path of making money through trading for almost eight years now. I'm in my thirties, not quite financially free, but living more comfortably than most peers who work regular jobs.
From the start, I understood that relying solely on a fixed salary wouldn't change my situation. So I decided to go all-in on trading. Over the years, I've stepped into many pits, more failures than achievements. The reason I can still hold on today isn't because of some advanced skills; frankly, it's just because I’ve kept a few bottom lines.
The most important thing in this market? Surviving. Compared to getting rich overnight, stable survival is much more valuable. I've seen all kinds of market traps, and over time, I can sense which trends hide danger behind them. The kind of quick rise followed by slow decline is often a trap to harvest retail investors; and the sharp rebound after a crash, don’t think of it as an opportunity—most likely, the big players are fishing.
I pay special attention to trading volume. A sudden huge volume at a top doesn’t necessarily mean the market has peaked; it could be the last jump before a decline. Conversely, if the volume remains sluggish at high levels, you should be cautious. At the bottom, a volume increase requires patience—wait for a few days to see if it stabilizes and no new lows appear; only then is the signal reliable.
Ultimately, the market is a game of capital and psychology. Major turning points often occur when most people can't hold back and follow the herd to chase the kill. People who have been in the game long enough aren’t without greed—they’ve just learned to hold it back.
Over the years, I’ve been summarizing, trial-and-error, iterating, and later I incorporated AI models to help catch the rhythm. Opportunities in the market are never lacking; what’s missing is the self-control to see through the opportunities without getting caught up emotionally.
I wouldn’t call myself smart; I just keep learning and adjusting. If you’re also exploring, welcome to exchange ideas together. $ETH $SOL

Living so long without being liquidated and kicked out of the market really isn't due to any technical talent... it's just that I endured a few more times than others.

Eight years and still not financially free—that's reality. Sticking to the bottom line is more valuable than any technical indicator.

Eight years and still not financially free, which shows that this industry really isn't that easy to break into.

You're absolutely right; living is more important than making money. This lesson in the crypto world was paid for with blood, sweat, and tears.

Eight years and still not free, this is the ending I fear the most haha
---
I've also repeatedly fallen into traps with trading volume, now I think I've finally got it
---
Listening to get rich overnight is fine, but living is the real key, really hits home
---
Why does it feel like your theory is the same as what my dad always says, "Protect the principal"... but I still go all in
---
Holding back greed is perfect, but in actual operation, the mind just doesn't obey, haha
---
AI-assisted rhythm catching? I feel like it still depends on luck
---
Self-control is the most valuable thing, but ironically, it's also the hardest to develop
---
Waiting for the bottom to stabilize for a few days before jumping in, I learned this

Eight years to earn only this much. Honestly, I don't quite understand. Are you just stubbornly holding on?
