The greatest trade isn't always the one you take—it's the one you skip.



Watch your portfolio closely and you'll notice something: most blowups don't come from bad entries. They come from the moment you felt anxious and thought you *had* to do something. That urgency to act? It's usually when markets punish you hardest.

The traders who compound wealth aren't the ones constantly chasing moves. They're the ones who wait. Who sit with their hands in their pockets until the setup screams clarity. Until conviction replaces doubt.

Rest is underrated. Patience is a weapon. Sometimes the smartest play in crypto is to do absolutely nothing and let time work for you.

Really, it's much better to do nothing than to make reckless moves. That's how I lost money. --- Anxiety is a signal, and a signal is a dead signal. Learned that. --- Wait, wait, wait until your fingers start to itch... No, wait until the itch is gone before acting. --- Honestly, the hardest thing is to do nothing, even more painful than going all in. --- The most profitable people in crypto are always those who are idle. We, who are constantly watching the charts, are just inviting trouble. --- Stop-loss is a technique; knowing when to stop is an art, my friends. --- Every time I want to make a move, I just check my account, then do nothing—simple and straightforward. --- When in a hurry, place an order. Making money is a slow process; rushing only leads to tragedy.

Really, I have seen too many project teams rush to deploy unaudited contracts out of anxiety that "they must act immediately," only to be wiped out by reentrancy attacks. Not engaging in trading and not conducting audits are two different things.

Making money silently is even more exhausting than losing money every day.

Enough already, it's the same old "immovable as a mountain" rhetoric... But to be honest, my biggest loss was due to my reckless mistake.

Really, doing nothing is the hardest move of all.

Not placing orders is the biggest winner; that's a truly brilliant statement.
