A while ago, someone doing spot trading asked me: "Why do you only catch a few waves of the market each year, yet you always manage to double your money?" 🤔

I smiled and said, it all comes down to one word: patience.

You can tell by my trading style. The fluctuations below the daily chart? All noise. On the 4-hour chart, I only look at structural trends. True entry opportunities only come when the daily and weekly charts align and give the green light. Start with the lightest position to test the waters, then add gradually after the weekly close confirms the direction. Place stop-loss outside the weekly K-line's reverse low point, allowing the market to shake out freely so I can sleep soundly.

Once I build a position, I hold for at least a month. I don’t watch the charts constantly; just review my plan for three minutes at the close each day. The rest of the time, I either work out or read. Trading is really just a side gig for me.

Look at those who stare at floating profits and losses every day—any little fluctuation makes them panic. I’m different—my eyes only see the trend’s life or death. As long as the structure isn’t broken, I treat this trade as if I never made it, and keep holding. Nine out of ten small stop-losses are wasted effort, but that one big wave of the market, earning in a month can cover a whole year’s living expenses 💰

The principle is simple: reduce trading frequency to increase leverage. High-frequency trading? Even the best systems can’t withstand that kind of wear and tear. Doing only three or four waves a year, aiming for 50% profit each wave, letting compound interest work, naturally leads to doubling your money.

The crypto market is never short of volatility; what’s missing is the patience to wait for the big move. Those who understand this have long reduced their trading frequency, letting the market do the work for them, steadily earning double profits.
