Don't remind me again today

Let me talk about my playstyle, focusing on narrative hotspots.

The most important iron rule in this market: narratives have an expiration date. Charge in when the hype rises, and withdraw after this wave; never get attached to the battle. Many people just can't bring themselves to leave, and in the end, they go from the peak down to the foot of the mountain.

My holding logic is very simple—other than BTC and USDT, no other coins are worthy of holding long-term. Don't talk to me about value investing or long-termism; that stuff doesn't apply in this circle.

I only do one thing: trend speculation.

Aim in the right direction, act according to the trend, and take profits when they're good. It's not that I don't believe in projects, but the market changes too quickly; today's leader might be cold tomorrow. Investment? That's a term from traditional finance; in the crypto space, I only do trading.

You are right, narrative is like fast food, once you finish eating, you have to run. Chasing trends is easy, but the hard part is being willing to sell; most people die at the hurdle of greed. BTC will never disappoint, the others are just here to Be Played for Suckers. I am also doing this, and I feel it's much more reliable than any Fundamental Analysis.

Damn, this guy is too harsh, I fully agree. When the narrative is dead, it's time to run, what are we waiting for? --- Sitting from the top of the mountain to the foot, this hits home, I've seen too many people like this. --- Besides btc, everything else is a sucker's game, to be honest. --- Trend speculation is the way to live, those who promote value investing are just people who missed the boat. --- The market changes so rapidly, yesterday's leader drops to zero today, there's no time to react at all. --- Not being attached to the battle is really crucial, greed kills. --- There's a big difference between trading and investing, the crypto world is just a playground. --- The term "shelf life" is brilliant, as soon as the hype fades, it's time to get out. --- Knowing when to take profits sounds easy but is really hard to do, I fell for "just wait a bit longer." --- I can only respect this point about btc, other coins are just conceptual bubbles.

Well, that's true. When it comes to narratives, you have to be decisive; otherwise, it really feels like a roller coaster. In the crypto world, apart from Bitcoin and stablecoins, everything else is just a story that ends once it's told. Trend speculation is indeed much more reliable than any long-termism. Did anyone buy the dip this time? Just wait for the next wave; there are plenty of opportunities anyway. To be honest, I trust the candlestick charts more than I trust the projects, haha.

You're absolutely right, my quantitative model was developed this way too; making quick money is the way to go.

You're right, the narrative impact is indeed large, but the key is to run fast Chasing hotspots can easily get you trapped, I've learned this lesson the hard way BTC and USDT are the real safe havens, the rest are just stories I've already gotten this logic, making money relies on timing Seeing them still bragging about long-term holding is hilarious, they should have woken up long ago Once the hotspot passes, immediately close all positions, or you'll really fall from heaven to hell Saying investing is too artistic, this is gambling, but the bet is on the trend

Haha, I'm not talking about you, it's just that those who are reluctant to get out of positions end up crying. --- The phrase 'narrative has an expiration date' is brilliant. I just haven't grasped this point, and I'm still trapped. --- I agree with this point; everything other than BTC is just a toy. --- It's easy to say 'take profit when it's good', but when it comes down to the crucial moment, who doesn't want to earn a bit more? This psychological barrier is so difficult. --- I've figured out the difference between speculation and investment; the crypto world is just a game of quick in and out. --- The description from the mountain top to the foot of the mountain is brilliant; it's always the same drama. --- Why must it be either/or? Sometimes it still depends on the project's fundamentals. --- Not being attached to the battle is the most crucial, but it's incredibly difficult to execute.

On-chain data shows that this trap logic has long been validated, narrative shelf life? The contract deployment timeline I monitor indicates that the real opportunity is 0.5 seconds before the emotional reversal, and your speed is roughly one of my trading cycles.
