#加密生态动态追踪 The biggest pitfall in trading markets: greed.



Watching $XRP rise from $2 to $3, regretting not buying at the bottom; seeing $BNB fluctuate, thinking of swing trading; then watching $SOL fall, wanting to catch a rebound. But what’s the result? Missed every move, holding a bunch of losing positions.

Truly consistent profitable traders understand one principle:

**Instead of greedily chasing every market move, it’s better to master one type of market thoroughly.**

You may have heard that doctors need to specialize—cardiologists are experts in heart issues, but if they do neurosurgery, they’re just beginners. Lawyers are the same—some focus on criminal cases, others on commercial law, each deepening their expertise in their vertical field. Trading is the same.

Markets can be divided into several categories—some follow pure trends, some range sideways, some reverse, and some move within channels. If you trade trends today, range tomorrow, and hope for a reversal to jump in, you’ll never get the hang of any, always a step behind.

On the other hand, traders who master one type of market thoroughly understand the rhythm, strength, and turning points of the market. They can outperform 90% of their competitors in their niche.

Practical steps:

**Step 1: Choose a market type.** For example, focus on trending markets, which can be further subdivided—fast-moving trends vs. gradual upward trends with pullbacks, each with its own strategies.

**Step 2: Refine repeatedly.** From watching the charts, recognizing patterns, building positions, adding, stop-loss, take-profit—break down each step and learn thoroughly.

**Step 3: Build your own trading system.** When to buy, why to buy, how much to buy, when to exit—all have clear standards.

Remember: **It’s better to perfect one market type to 100 points than to only pass with a C grade in multiple types.**

Focus is the fastest shortcut to making money.

Here we go again with this routine. I'm the one who wants to copy everything but ends up copying nothing... That really hits me hard. I just can't focus. As soon as I open my eyes, there are ten opportunities waiting for me to miss. Forget it, I'll just continue being my "all-around trader." Anyway, losing money is also very professional.

Exactly right, I'm the kind of person who wants to copy everything, and as a result, I lost a lot.

That's right, but I reflected on myself... I'm the kind of person who wants to copy every wave. In the past two months, I took turns trading XRP, SOL, and BNB, but all ended with stop-loss exits. Now I understand why I'm always a step behind.

That's right, it's just that this truth is too hard to accept... I'm currently this kind of person, wanting to copy every opportunity I see, but as a result, I'm always a beat late in every wave.

Really, this is my blood and tears lesson. I still remember last year's XRP rally, and I lost a lot. That's right, I now only focus on trading during volatile markets. I don't touch anything else, no matter how tempting, and I feel much more comfortable. Every time I see friends manually switching strategies every day, I just laugh. Sooner or later, it will lead to losses and psychological trauma. The trading logic of trying to eat everything in one bite and becoming fat is really a big trap. I only realized this after losing a few times. Honestly, instead of chasing after many opportunities, it's better to master one asset and one strategy thoroughly. Taking fewer detours saves a lot of costs.
