Everyone who has been in the crypto market knows that this circle is like an invisible game of chess. Behind market fluctuations lie many tricks; it's less about technical analysis and more about psychological warfare. Today, let's reveal 12 market rules summarized by those who have been坑过.
Once the domestic daytime market dips sharply, many rush to buy the dip — but around 21:30 in the evening, overseas traders start to push the price up. The reverse is also true: a big rise during the day is not a signal to chase high; it often retraces in the evening. This time zone arbitrage trick has been repeated countless times.
Regarding entry and exit timing, many people are superstitious about needle insertion. The more aggressively you insert, the more obvious the signal seems, but often this is just the market testing your stop-loss level. A few lucky escapes are possible, but after a while, it becomes the standard for chives.
Before major news or positive announcements, the price必涨 — this has become common sense. But when it actually happens? It drops straight down. The gap between FOMO emotions and reality is the profit space for the manipulators.
Someone recommends a project in the community, hyping it up wildly. You get excited and enter, but most likely get trapped. Conversely, those coins you're not interested in or even suspicious of often unexpectedly take off. So sometimes, reverse thinking really works — try small amounts on those neglected projects.
Hot coins also follow this logic. When a coin is extremely hot, it's probably time to short because the bagholders are already few.
Large positions often get liquidated — this is no coincidence. The exchange's liquidation list is like an open prey list; monitoring position data, big players can see your bottom line at a glance.
After a short position's stop-loss is hit, the price必跌 — this tests your mentality. If they don’t trick you out, how can the price drop smoothly? TRB is a vivid example.
Just when you're about to break free, the price suddenly rebounds and stops. Why? Because the market maker won't let you exit so easily. Pushing the price is an art; first, you must ensure all passengers are forced off.
At the moment of taking profit, the market starts to pull back. If you don't decisively exit, you'll be trapped on this ride. The car is too heavy to run away.
When you're excited, a sudden crash can come without warning. That excitement itself is a trap, a fishing rod set by the market manipulators.
The most heartbreaking rule: when your account hits bottom and you're broke, suddenly all projects start to rise. FOMO sweeps in, and you投入最后的力量入场 — the result is predictable.
In short, the probability that this market is manipulated exceeds 80%. To survive and leave this jungle, you must control your position size, wait for the right moment, and strike back at the right time. Don’t rush to exit; once you're in, you become the fish in the exchange. Trading crypto tests not just skills but patience, resolve, and the ability to grasp market rhythm. Let's encourage each other.
