When I first entered the crypto world, I was just like most beginners—completely clueless.
Every night, I would stare at the charts until dawn, my eyes hurting badly. I would listen to rumors about certain coins being pumped and chase after them aggressively. Whenever there was any movement in the group chat, I would jump in immediately. I had no plan of my own.
The result after a month? Not a single cent earned, but instead losing half of my principal. That feeling of watching my hard-earned money being swallowed up is truly painful.
The market taught me in the cruelest way.
After that, I gave up. Looking at K-lines? Useless. Chasing news? Just asking for trouble. I simplified my strategy to the bare minimum:
No touching K-lines. No reading news. Focus only on one thing—trend.
My friends laughed at me: "Is that it? No chasing hot topics, no indicators?"
I didn’t explain, but I understood deep down—too many things interfere with judgment.
And then something magical happened.
Once the trend was confirmed, my account balance started to rise on its own. No more staying up late watching the charts, no more being disturbed by noise. The principal was protected tightly, and profits steadily grew.
This method is ridiculously simple, but it’s ten times more effective than the previous "full-screen indicators + hot topic chasing."
Small accounts can also gradually grow, as long as you catch the right direction. The rest? Let time do its work.
The biggest fear in the crypto world isn’t the decline itself. It’s being led astray by daily noise, always in chaos.
That 50% loss was worth it—because I finally understood: the market won’t wait for anyone. Only those who go with the trend can survive.

This is the truth of the crypto world; there's too much noise, and it just messes with your mind.

Oh wow, that's the truth. I used to mess around with myself like this in the early years, and thinking about it now still gives me chills.

Really, the more you mess around, the more you lose. Being simple and straightforward actually makes money.

Another story of enlightenment; it sounds good, but can you really stick with it?

You're right, noise is the real killer. Spend less time in groups, look at fewer pictures, and sleep more.

Bro, this article is about me. I used to watch the charts every day and get cut. I've quit that long ago. Now I just watch the trend and earn passively.

Sounds pretty childish. What does good employment data have to do with the crypto world? LOL
