#数字货币市场洞察 39 years old, rooted in Shanghai, owning two properties, and an 8-figure balance in my account. Where does this confidence come from? I didn’t take any shortcuts—instead, I relied on what most people laugh at as “slow, hard work.”

One property shelters my family, and the other is for my own daily life. This sense of security comes from 8 years of grinding in the crypto market—I started with 150,000 yuan in principal and earned every bit of it.

I never had such long-term ambitions at first. In fact, I once experienced the despair of losing my 150,000 principal down to 50,000. But I never changed my approach—I just stuck to one system and executed it repeatedly.

During the craziest market run, my base position multiplied 200 times in 4 months, directly earning me 20 million. Sounds like bragging, but in reality, I earned it through countless sleepless nights staring at the charts.

In all these years of full-time trading, I wrote my survival rules on paper and stuck them beside my monitor and bed—afraid I’d screw up out of greed.

To be honest, surviving and making money in crypto doesn’t require fancy tricks. The core is just a few key points:

**Mindset always outweighs technique.** If every swing in the chart throws you off, forget about making money.

**The less principal you have, the more carefully you need to plan.** Catching one real bull run a year is enough—don’t fantasize about going all-in to change your fate.

**Your knowledge determines your ceiling.** If your understanding doesn’t keep up, you’ll give back whatever you make. Paper trading hones your skills, but live trading tests your mindset.

**Always keep liquidity for mid- to long-term positions.** Take profits in batches when it’s up, and buy in gradually when it’s down while keeping your cool.

**For short-term trades, only touch coins with good liquidity.** Avoid low-volume coins—they’ll trap you easily.

**Sharp drops and slow declines require different reactions.** Sharp drops often rebound quickly; slow declines usually mean long adjustments. Mastering these patterns helps you avoid many pitfalls.

**Cut your losses immediately if you’re wrong.** As long as your principal is intact, there are always more opportunities. For short-term trades, watch the 15-minute chart and use KDJ and MACD to find entry and exit points.

Going from a 70% loss to break even, and then to profit, all boils down to single-mindedly executing one trading system.

Now, even though my assets have reached this level, I want to share these hard-earned lessons that have been truly tested in the market. Luck can bring windfall profits in crypto, but consistent earnings rely on discipline—and anyone can learn these rules, as long as they’re willing to put in the work.
