#美联储降息 After spending a long time in the crypto world, you'll observe a phenomenon that is both absurd and real — the deeper you delve, the faster you lose money.



Traders obsessed with K-line charts, on-chain data, and KOL opinions often have dismal account performance. Sometimes they get lured into full positions by "data surges," other times they panic and cut losses due to "sell-off signals." The volatility of coins like $PYR and $ASTER is like a touchstone — the more frequently they trade, the more severe the losses.

The more you look, the more confused you become; the deeper you think, the more your mindset collapses. Ultimately, you fall into a vicious cycle: high trading frequency but shrinking profits.

Some follow a different logic: from a five-figure principal to over fifty million now, without insider information or relying on intuition of a chosen one, just two principles — "Keep complex things simple, and do simple things to the extreme."

In the early days of my career, I was also obsessed with technical indicators. MACD, RSI, Bollinger Bands filled the screen, and the trading interface looked like a command center. But after a wave of market movements, I earned the least and lost the most. Later, I completely let go, focusing only on a single K-line and a moving average. I spend 20 minutes each day reviewing my trades, marking entry and exit points, silently repeating the trading discipline: "Don't chase highs, don't buy bottoms."

Gradually, my mindset stabilized. No matter how fierce the market, I no longer panic; instead, I started earning "money that others don't understand" — market sentiment money, risk premium money.

The most ironic truth in crypto: those who truly make money are often not the most knowledgeable, but those who understand "restraint in thinking" best. Market makers profit by creating information fog, while retail traders must rely on simple logic to survive.

Now I rarely study new indicators. The only thing I study is myself. Because I’ve long seen through it: the market’s essence is chaos, human nature is greed. Only by refining my own rhythm to be simple and stable enough can I stand a chance against these two forces.

What about you? Are you still overwhelmed by complex charts and information? Or have you already found your trading rhythm? This might be the dividing line that determines whether you can laugh last.

Really, reading articles like this makes me think of my dark history of constantly looking at MACD on the screen... Now, just sticking to a single moving average makes me feel much more comfortable.

That's incredible, it's exactly the situation I was in two years ago... The screen was full of indicators, but then a market trend got me completely trapped.

To be honest, after watching the market for so many years, the ones who end up making money are never those fierce traders who watch the charts every day...

Yeah, that hits close to home. I'm the kind of person who checks the market every day.

Really, reading this article is a bit heartbreaking... I myself have been researching indicators to the point of headache, but as a result, my account is actually looking worse and worse.

Really, the more you look at it, the faster you lose money. I have a deep understanding of this. The more frequently you trade, the more absurd the losses become. During that period, my screen was full of indicators, and as a result, I lost three months' worth of gains in just one month. Now I keep it simple and straightforward, no more messing around. To put it plainly, you need to compete with yourself and not be kidnapped by the market noise.

That's right, I was messed up by that bunch of indicators. Filling the screen with stuff actually results in more losses.

Uh... you're so right. Most of my friends who check the markets every day are now basically bankrupt.

Wake up, wake up. The more you see, the faster you lose. This statement is truly amazing.
