#数字资产市场观察 When I first entered the market, I was staring at the $ZEC Candlestick from midnight until dawn. As soon as the red bar popped up, I would rush in, but when it turned green, I panicked and Cut Loss; when $ORCA pumped, I wished I could go All in, and if it pulled back by two points, I would start doubting whether I was a dumb buyer. Back then, making 50U could give me bragging rights with my fren for a whole day, while losing 100U had me lying in bed scrolling through my phone until three in the morning—thinking back now, the market probably loves this kind of money giving.

On the day that $IRYS caused me to be liquidated for the third time, I deleted all my trading software and sat in the park for an afternoon. Suddenly, I realized one thing: retail investors don't win by being smarter than the big players, but by being more patient than their yesterday's self.

Later, I set a few strict rules for myself.

**Only earn the money that I can understand.** While others chase those coins that are soaring vertically, I focus on the second opportunity after a pullback stabilizes; when I see calls for bottom fishing amidst a downtrend flying everywhere, I prefer to wait until the trend truly reverses before taking action. It’s true that I feel envious when others flaunt their tenfold trades, but I grit my teeth and stick to my own pace—slow it may be, but I have confidence in every step I take.

**Positions must be light enough to sleep well.** In the past, I saw others go all in and felt I wasn't tough enough; now I only have at most 30% of my funds in the market, and I don't even touch leverage. It's not that I'm afraid, but to give myself the chance for continuous trial and error. Only those who can withstand volatility can truly benefit from the main upward phase.

**No hesitation when it's time to go.** If the breakout fails, stop loss immediately; clear all positions on the day the plan fails, and never get emotional the moment the stop loss line is reached. Technology can help you make money, but discipline is what allows you to keep it.

Many people see me go from 1000U to 90,000U and think it was just luck. They don't know how many times I have blown up my positions, how many sleepless nights I've spent staring at losing trades, and how many more times I doubted whether I was even suited for this industry than the number of trades I've placed.

The crypto world lacks everything, except for smart people. However, there are really few who can still grit their teeth to review, adjust, and come back after repeated losses.

Looking back at the past three months, the most valuable thing is not the string of numbers in the account, but finally turning the few counterintuitive things of 'small positions, high certainty, and iron discipline' into muscle memory.

Now I consider myself to have moved on. What about you? Will you continue to be that emotional trader, or will you decide to be someone who laughs last?
