Over the years of investing in the crypto world, I have discovered a few ironclad rules to share with everyone:

First, never go all-in at once. Even if you judge that a certain price is already at the bottom range, you should stagger your entries. My approach is to set a ladder-style buying plan—buy more as the price drops, continuously lowering the average cost.

Second, always reserve enough ammunition. The biggest fear is not a decline, but reaching the bottom without funds to buy the dip. Therefore, I always keep at least one round of additional funds for re-entry when building a position, ensuring I can jump in aggressively when real opportunities arise.

This method sounds simple, but executing it requires overcoming psychological barriers—especially when watching prices plummet, suppressing the impulse to load up all at once. However, in the long run, this disciplined investment mindset is more decisive for final returns than luck.

That's right, mindset is really the key to most people's success. Knowing you should buy in batches but still feeling itchy... --- I deeply understand the importance of ammunition reserves. How many times have I watched opportunities slip away just because I had no cash? --- The more it drops, the more I add to my position. It sounds easy to say but really hard to do, especially when the decline makes you question your life. --- Discipline > luck. This saying hit the mark. I've been holding coins for years and have lost quite a bit because I lacked this mindset. --- Some have already cut their losses in one go, but spreading out your positions is the right way, brother. --- I've used the tactic of reserving ammunition. The key is to truly resist the temptation not to use it. --- Watching the price plummet without adding to your position? That takes a strong mental fortitude... Respect. --- So, it's really hard to judge the bottom. Instead of betting on a single move, it's better to bet multiple times.

That's true, but only a handful of people can actually do it... I'm the fool who wants to go all-in at the first sign of a big drop.

You're right, but my biggest problem is still not having enough money to replenish my position haha

Exactly right, buying in batches is indeed the truth, just worried about losing composure. What happened to those who went all-in? They've all become trapped. I also use the tactic of reserving ammunition; I always keep some powder dry to feel secure. Mental resilience is the hardest part; it's really difficult to control your hands when hitting the limit down. That's why most people can't make money; their discipline is just too poor.
