ETH? That's all in the past. Real players never look back. Time, once it passes, is gone.

BTC, if time could turn back, I would definitely say three words to you - lend me some money! I want to break even!

In my three years of trading cryptocurrencies, I rolled 10,000 U into 1,000,000 U. You might think it's luck? No, it's a skill.

Three years. 1095 days and nights. The 10,000 USDT in my hands has been slowly ground up, gradually increasing. There are no insider news boosts, nor did I catch the explosive bull market. It’s just steady and down-to-earth, treating trading as a game of leveling up by defeating monsters. No rush, no anxiety, just slowly honing my skills.

Today I will share with you the six most practical insights. Understanding just one can save you tens of thousands; if you implement three, you'll be able to outperform most retail investors in the market.

**First rule: Rise sharply, fall slowly - the main force is gradually accumulating positions**
After a sharp price surge, why is the pullback as slow as squeezing toothpaste? It's likely a washout action, so don't rush to cut losses and run. What does a real top look like? It suddenly releases a massive amount of volume for a violent surge, followed by an instant waterfall crash, leaving you no time to react and getting stuck.

**Article 2: It Falls Fast and Rises Slowly - The Main Forces Are Quietly Offloading**
After the sharp drop, there is a slow rebound. Do you think it's a good opportunity to buy the dip? Don't be naïve. "It's dropped enough, it shouldn't drop any further, right?"—this is the pit that retail investors are most likely to fall into. The market is unreasonable; it will drop if it needs to.

**Article 3: High volume does not equal safety, low volume is truly dangerous**
Is there still trading volume in the top area? It might make another push. But if it suddenly goes quiet at high levels and the volume shrinks significantly, that is the real sign of an impending crash. Silence is often the signal before the storm.

**Article 4: Don't be impulsive when there is a surge in volume at the bottom; continuous volume increase is what you can rely on.**
A single volume spike may just be a bait. The real opportunity to build a position is when there is stable volume for several consecutive days, followed by a period of consolidation, before considering entering the market. Don't rush, good things come to those who wait.

**Article 5: Speculating on cryptocurrencies is actually about understanding people's minds; there are secrets hidden in the trading volume.**
The K-line is just a presentation of results; trading volume is the thermometer of market sentiment. Is the volume small? That means no one is playing, and there's no heat. Did the volume suddenly increase? That indicates that real money is starting to enter the market. If you learn to understand trading volume, you will understand more than half of the market.

**Article 6: Understanding how to go flat is a hallmark of a skilled trader**
No obsession, if it’s time to be in cash, then be in cash. Don’t be greedy or anxious. This is not about lying flat, but rather about refining your trading mindset to perfection. Opportunities in the crypto world are always there, but what’s lacking are those who can control their hands and see the situation clearly.

With such large fluctuations in the market now, the importance of strategy is even more pronounced. Don't act impulsively when a bull market arrives, and don't panic when a bear market comes. True winners rely on discipline to restrain human nature. You reach out your hand, and I'll pull you up.
