I made a profit of 500,000 in the crypto market, and many people are asking for the secret. Honestly, there’s nothing magical—just three principles: reclaim decision-making power from the market, wait for the moment when the win rate truly tilts in your favor, and plan your exit strategy for each trade in advance.
Many traders tend to overreact. They get excited and watch the charts when prices go up, panic and scramble when prices fall. My approach is different—I complete all the homework before opening a position. Knowing the direction, the entry point, the maximum potential loss, and where to take profits—these are not things I think about on the spot. The market is just about executing the plan; it’s not a place for improvisation.
The second key is timing your entry. The crypto market fluctuates every day, but not every day is worth betting on. When the charts are chaotic, funds are wavering, and bulls and bears are tugging back and forth, I choose to stay out of the market. The real opportunity to go heavy is when the trend is clear and the win rate is obviously on your side. Such opportunities are indeed infrequent, but once they appear, you must seize them thoroughly.
And that confidence to act decisively actually comes from a pre-made plan. Making 80,000 isn’t about luck; it’s because even when you’re wrong, you’ve accounted for it—limiting losses, knowing how much profit can be made in the right direction. With a clear exit plan, you won’t panic during execution.
Few people see the entire process of how I make money on a trade. They only see the result but don’t know that I stayed out of the market for several days just to wait for this opportunity, watching countless small fluctuations pass by helplessly.
The truth about crypto trading is: it’s not about making profits every day, but about thoroughly understanding the opportunities worth taking. When the market signals, your preparation determines whether you can catch it.

It's the same old story, heard it too many times. The key is that knowing and doing are two different things; most people still can't resist chasing highs and selling lows.

It sounds good, but isn't it just good luck that I caught this wave? Let's see what happens in the next bear market.
Waiting passively can also make money? I only see myself losing even faster.
I've been listening to this theory for three years, but in the end, it still comes down to intuition when making a move. Who isn't like that?
Waiting on the sidelines for an opportunity sounds right, but when the moment truly arrives, the mindset collapses early, and I can't help but trade.
No matter how perfect the contingency plan is, it can't beat the black swan. In the crypto world, there are no "clear trends."
Watching others make eighty thousand, my stop-loss order was already hit through. Same market, two different logics.
There's some truth to it, but only winners dare to say this kind of review; losers have long fallen silent.

That's right, you just need to resist the urge to chase every trade. Looking at my own account, there are indeed more days of being flat than days of trading.

This logic sounds simple, but few can truly keep their mindset from exploding.
---
50,000 isn't small, but I'm more concerned about whether this money can be stabilized.
---
The key is still a contingency plan. Without one, even if you make money, it's just gambling.
---
Waiting for signals, executing according to plan, controlling drawdowns—I've heard all the talk, but few can really stick to it.
---
Haha, another "I made money and you didn't" kind of share. The words are correct, but is the market really giving such high-probability opportunities?
---
I agree with calculating the stop-loss point in advance; at least it prevents being shaken out by market fluctuations.
---
Being flat also requires patience, which is the hardest part. Most people just can't sit still and have to do something.

It sounds good, but how many people can truly achieve an empty position and wait?

Basically, it's about restraint. I've seen too many people who watch the market every day and end up cutting their losses. Your mindset is actually the dividing line between a gambler and a trading master.
