Why do so many people know that contract risks are extremely high, yet still keep rushing in one after another? Honestly, everyone harbors a dream of getting rich quickly.

In 2017, I started with 800 USDT, and now my account has grown to eight figures. It wasn’t through insider information, nor by copying or shouting signals, but by sticking to a "foolproof" and steady approach.

Over the years, I’ve experienced liquidations, drawdowns, insomnia, and anxiety. Every loss, every tuition fee, has ultimately condensed into a few trading insights.

Each time I understand one, I can avoid pitfalls worth hundreds of thousands; truly mastering three can help you dodge 90% of the traps in the market.

**First: Don’t panic sell during rapid rises and slow declines**

This is often not a top signal, but a sign that the big players are accumulating at low levels. What you should really fear is a volume spike followed by a sudden dump—that’s the beginning of a harvest.

**Second: Don’t try to bottom fish during sharp declines and slow recoveries**

A small rebound after a flash crash? Don’t be fooled. That’s usually a false rebound before distribution. The market is best at exploiting people’s luck-driven psychology.

**Third: High volume at a top isn’t necessarily bad; low volume is the real danger**

Volume indicates that both sides are still fighting; no volume means the main force has quietly exited, leaving only emptiness.

**Fourth: Don’t rush into the market during a volume spike at the bottom; look for sustainability**

A single day’s volume surge doesn’t signal a start. Only continuous volume increase, especially after consolidation and breakout, truly indicates accumulation.

**Fifth: Candlestick patterns are superficial; volume reveals the real underlying truth**

Price is just a mirror of market sentiment. Understanding volume changes is the real key to understanding the market.

**Sixth: The highest skill is "nothing"**

Without attachment, you can wait calmly in a sideways market; without greed, you have the courage to take profits and exit; without fear, you can decisively act when opportunities arise. Controlling your emotions is much more difficult than predicting market trends.

Eight years, 2920 days—I've gone from total ignorance to gradually becoming composed, and finally realized a simple truth: those who make big money are never the smartest, but the ones who can stay calm the longest. Opportunities are abundant; what’s lacking is the right direction and enough patience.
