If you've been navigating the crypto market for over a year but still haven't reached 300,000 in your account, this content might be worth a look.



A trader who has been deeply involved in this field for many years once said that he accumulated over 60 million in profits over 8 years. It sounds like a fairy tale, but he is willing to summarize all the pitfalls he has stepped into, the positions he has爆过, and the blood he has paid. Here are the 10 core experiences he distilled:

**First: Don't Expect Full Position with Small Capital**

If your starting capital is no more than 100,000 yuan, operating with a full position is basically suicide. Instead of frequent entries and exits, be patient and wait for the real main upward wave. Before the market shows clear signals, waiting itself is the strongest weapon.

**Second: Cognition Determines the Profit Ceiling**

First, use a demo account to hone your mindset and trading courage. A demo account allows you to fail infinitely, but a single big mistake in real trading could mean immediate exit. Never reverse this order.

**Third: Be Cautious if Major Good News Doesn't Rise on the Same Day**

There is a market rule called "Good news landing often becomes bad news." If a major good news is released and the price doesn't rise on the same day, but opens higher the next day, selling promptly is usually wise. Greed often leads to being trapped.

**Fourth: Reduce Positions or Even Go Flat During Holidays**

History has repeated this countless times—"Holidays must fall" is not a joke; it's a real market law. Be cautious before holidays; it's more cost-effective than being hammered during the holiday.

**Fifth: Cash Reserves Are the Essence of Mid-Long Term**

Don't expect to eat everything in one wave. That's the game of the big players. Retail traders' correct approach is to keep sufficient cash, buy high and sell low, and operate in a rolling manner. Small steps and quick moves are always more stable than going all-in at once.

**Sixth: Only Focus on Active Coins for Short-Term Trading**

Coins with high trading volume and large price fluctuations are worth paying attention to; those with low trading activity can be ignored, as they waste your monitoring time and can wear down your mental state.

**Seventh: The Downward Rhythm Determines the Speed of Rebound**

Slow decline markets can be very frustrating to rebound from; but if the decline suddenly accelerates, the rebound often comes faster and more fiercely. Timing the rhythm is more important than you think.

**Eighth: Admit Loss Immediately if You Buy Wrong**

Cut losses at the first sign. As long as your principal is intact, opportunities always exist—this is the fundamental logic for survival in the market.

**Ninth: Watch 15-Minute K-Line for Short-Term Monitoring**

Use it in conjunction with the KDJ indicator, which can help you discover many good buy and sell points. Don't overly rely on any single tool, but this combination is indeed effective for short-term operations.

**Tenth: Master One or Two Methods Enough**

There are thousands of trading techniques, and you don't need to master them all. Perfecting one or two methods to the extreme is far more profitable than casting a wide net.

Each of these ten pieces of advice has been verified with real money. Avoiding detours itself is a way to make money. If you're still circling in confusion in the crypto market, consider these ideas—they might help you avoid many pitfalls.

Sounds good, but the key is practical implementation. Not having 300,000 in a year—what does that say?

It's the same old rhetoric again. Why do I feel like I'm hearing the same story every day? 80 million in 8 years? I don't believe you. Might as well talk about the losses instead. Full position suicide, I agree, but the real pitfalls are not in these ten points. The recognition ceiling is the most practical point; the rest are all after-the-fact armchair generals. It's true that prices always drop during holidays. I didn't reduce my position during the holiday and got hammered out bloody. Mastering one or two methods is good, but what if I haven't even figured out one? Practicing on a simulated account for a long time is useless; the mindset and pressure in real trading are completely different. Cash reserves sound good, but when there's no market, holding cash is just losing money. If this guy really had 60 million, he wouldn't still be here teaching others. There's some flavor to it.

Wow, going all-in is just gambler's mentality. I've seen through it long ago.

Another story of "I made 60 million," just hear it and forget it, buddy.

Honestly, I paid tuition on the full position, and my account almost went to zero.

Hey, 8 years and 60 million, luckily it’s not me haha --- The graveyard for full-position small investors, a bloody lesson --- Good news doesn’t rise but instead opens low, I’ve fallen for this trick too many times --- Staying out during holidays is a game-changer, last time I didn’t heed the advice and got caught off guard --- Trading on a simulated account until my mentality exploded, then switching to real trading, so I wouldn’t go back to the pre-liberation days in one shot --- Using 15-minute K-line with KDJ can indeed catch many small waves, but it’s easy to get caught by false breakouts --- Cognition is truly the ceiling; no matter how much technical analysis, it can’t save those whose brains aren’t functioning properly --- Cash reserves are spot on, if you don’t have money in hand, you can’t seize opportunities when they come --- The feeling of not reaching 300,000 in a year is heartbreaking, haha, so true --- Stop-loss seems simple, but few people can really do it

To be honest, I've been educated about full positions long ago, at a bloody cost. Now it's all about who can hold on without moving until that one wave of true takeoff. Holidays really do require a test every time before I believe. Admitting loss is the hardest part; if you can't get past the psychological barrier, your account is gone. Looking at a bunch of indicators can be overwhelming; it's better to master one that feels comfortable to use.

That's a good point, but I think very few people can actually do it.
