Having been in the circle for 8 years, from a clueless rookie with 2000 yuan to a net worth of tens of millions today, looking back, those dreams of sudden wealth and quick doubling turned out to be lessons learned the hard way. Today, I’ll openly share the pitfalls I’ve stepped into and the nights I’ve cried through—each one a lesson bought with real money and real experience.

Honestly, mastering just one of these can save you at least 100,000 yuan; three can crush most retail investors. Instead of believing in insider tips, it’s better to hone your trading rhythm.

**Bitcoin’s Lifeline Is in Rhythm**

Rapid rises and slow declines? Mostly just shakeouts. Being scared out makes you a leek. But if after a volume surge it suddenly crashes, that’s a different story—this isn’t a simple correction, but a trap to induce more buying and then dump. Do you remember the market rally after the rate cut? Retail investors piling in at the bottom, only to be hammered out, with scenes of 150,000 liquidations still vivid.

The toughest test is during sharp drops and slow recoveries. Don’t rush. It may seem like hope, but it’s actually a trap set by the big players for retail investors—there’s never been mercy.

**Ethereum’s Keyword Is Trading Volume**

High-level sideways movement with volume and some upward momentum—continue to be bullish. But once volume shrinks sharply and the market becomes eerily quiet, a collapse is just one step away.

A single-day surge with huge volume at the bottom looks attractive, but most are bait. What’s the real sign of building positions? After a period of low-volume sideways trading, when volume starts to steadily and gently increase—that’s the move of a professional trader.

**SOL’s Trend Is All About Emotion**

Candlesticks are surface, but trading volume is the heartbeat. The data on volume hides the most genuine attitude of both bulls and bears. SOL’s wild swings are always linked to market sentiment resonance. Fear and greed switching can trigger chain reactions, and abnormal fluctuations in funding rates are early warning signals.

**The Final Rule That Determines How Far You Can Go**

One word: **None**.

No obsession, so you can stay in cash and wait for the best opportunity; no greed, so you won’t get caught at the top; no fear, so you dare to pick up money in panic.

I’ve held on from 16,000 yuan to my current wealth, not relying on speed but on rule awareness, contrarian decision-making, and the power of time’s compound interest. Traders who hedge with low leverage and strictly control their positions don’t chase overnight riches but steadily grow their wealth amid market fluctuations. The market’s harshest blow is to wipe out those who are overly clever, but it rewards those who seem “dumb but keep surviving.”

This circle isn’t a single-player game. Without proper cognition or professional guidance, you’ll end up just fuel for the market. Mindset determines success or failure; cognition determines height. Often, the most conservative approaches are the only paths to stable returns.
