These six years have truly been worth it. From someone who believed that a "steady salary can turn things around," to where I am now, I no longer worry about hotels. Among my peers still running businesses or doing e-commerce, it's still about physical stamina. I've long seen through it — instead of competing over salaries, it's better to enter the trading market early. Although I've tasted the苦头 of bull and bear markets, enduring it has helped me understand the way.

Having experienced rapid rises and falls, I’ve developed habits. I rely on a few strict rules: never chase markets that rise quickly and fall slowly — that’s often the market makers slowly casting their nets. After a sharp decline, small rebounds with no momentum shouldn’t be overestimated; don’t expect to bottom fish, as it’s mostly market manipulation. A sudden surge in volume at a top may not mean a peak (market makers might still want to push one last wave), but when trading volume at high levels shrinks, it’s time to run. At the bottom, volume expansion requires patience; only when volume steadily and gently increases and the price stabilizes is it truly the right time to enter.

In the crypto world, trading ultimately revolves around emotional fluctuations. Trading volume is a mirror of sentiment: when you want to go all-in, the market makers are just escaping; when you’re terrified, they’ve already entered. Many who get liquidated aren’t necessarily lacking skill, but can’t control their hands — those dreaming of overnight riches have long been cleaned out by the market.

My approach is to keep reviewing, reviewing, and reviewing again. Every time I make a mistake, I improve my strategy. Now I rely on systematic analysis to catch swing opportunities. Opportunities are everywhere; what’s truly lacking is the ability to see through them. Trading purely based on feelings and intuition? The results are often disastrous. The market is always playing out, the key is how long your capital and patience can last.
