As a seasoned veteran who has been navigating the crypto world for 7 years, today I want to share some "counterintuitive" truths with you.

I'm a post-80s, starting from just 10,000 copies of Jing Yi to now reaching this scale. Along the way, I had no insider information, no shortcuts, and certainly no overwhelming luck. The only thing I did right was: using the simplest methods to survive longer than others.
Many people ask me: why can some stay in the market long-term, while others disappear after just one cycle? The answer is simple— they understand the rhythm of the big players and control their emotions.
Below are 6 "survival rules" that I have repeatedly verified over more than 2000 days and nights. They are not complicated but very valuable.

1. Rapid rise and slow decline may not mean a top; it’s often just a shakeout and redistribution.
2. Quick drops and slow rises are usually not opportunities; they are likely the end of distribution. Don’t be fooled by “it’s fallen enough.”
3. High volume at a high level doesn’t necessarily mean death; lack of volume should raise suspicion. Quietness at a high level often signals a big drop.
4. A single large volume at the bottom doesn’t mean a reversal; the true bottom is formed through grinding. Consistent volume over several days indicates genuine accumulation.
5. Price is the result; volume reflects sentiment. Watching candlesticks shows surface-level patterns, but volume reveals market consensus and the true strength of bulls and bears.
6. Being able to hold a vacant position is the mark of a true master. Holding cash isn’t cowardice but a choice. Not chasing highs is restraint. Not panicking is confidence. Without obsession over the market, your trades will serve you well.
