These three days of trading have given me a lot of new insights into the market.

Last week, when PIPPIN surged to around 0.5, my market sense told me that the momentum was clearly waning, so I quickly opened a short position. Honestly, I didn’t think too complicated at the time; I just felt a correction was due. Less than two hours later, the price plummeted to 0.305, and I secured a profit of nearly 28,000 USDT. Sometimes the market feedback is so fast that you can’t react in time.

But what really made me feel I was hitting the right rhythm was the BEAT token. Since establishing a long position at 1.02 on the 21st of last month, I held it for nearly a month. By February 19th, I completely closed the position, with a single trade profit approaching 50,000 USDT. Do you call that luck? Maybe partly, but more so patience and waiting.

What’s even more interesting is that right after selling the long position, I immediately sensed short-term overbought signals and turned around to open a short at 2.44. Less than an hour later, I took profit at 1.9. With the same coin, I benefited from both the bulls and the bears. This isn’t luck; it’s about recognizing structural signals at different timeframes.

Now I realize that instead of struggling to "predict" the market correctly, it’s better to focus on "doing it right." Correctly judging the direction is just the starting point. What truly sets people apart is where you enter at what price, when you exit, and how you adjust when mistakes happen. Stabilizing your rhythm allows your account to naturally reflect your skill level.

The market always cycles through new trends, but once the principal in your account is worn out, it’s gone for good. Instead of being greedy, it’s better to be steady and thorough—understand each trend you see, master it, and that’s the way to survive long-term.
