#以太坊大户持仓变化 Seven years of navigating the crypto world, from chasing huge profits to rational gains, every step along the way has been a lesson learned the hard way. Today, I want to share with you the insights gained through blood, sweat, and tears invested in this market.



**Small Capital Requires Greater Caution**

When you only have ten thousand yuan, don’t think about going all-in or gambling recklessly. Many newcomers tend to be more aggressive because of limited funds, thinking "I can't lose much anyway." In reality, just catching one major upward wave in a year can yield a substantial return. The key is to learn patience before the opportunity arrives—that sounds simple, but executing it is the greatest test.

**Start with a Demo Account to Test Strategies, Real Trading is the Real Battlefield**

People can never earn money beyond their current understanding. Before fully adapting to the market rhythm, a demo account is the best school. It allows unlimited failures, but a single mistake in a real account could mean the end. Get familiar with the market’s breathing pattern, then verify with real money—that order must not be reversed.

**Don’t Flee on the Day of Good News, Often You Become the Sucker**

When major news is released, it seems like the start of a rally, but in fact, the big players have already positioned themselves during the anticipation phase. When the news goes public and retail investors follow, it’s often the time for the smart money to unload. The next day’s gap-up is usually the last escape window. The market’s trick is to transfer chips amid cheers.

**Risks Before Holidays Are Often Underestimated**

Historical charts don’t lie—reducing or closing positions before holidays is usually the right move. Liquidity dries up, and emotions become unstable, making unexpected volatility more likely. Better to miss a few points than get caught in a trap during this period.

**Long-term Investing Is About "Rolling In"**

Don’t obsess over buying at the bottom and selling at the top in one shot—that’s a common illusion for beginners. The practical approach is to keep enough cash on hand, buy and sell in batches, and continuously optimize costs through long-term holding. Only then can you survive longer in a big cycle.

**Only Trade Active and Liquid Assets**

Stars like $BTC and $ETH are highly volatile with deep buy and sell sides, suitable for short-term trading. Small coins with poor liquidity waste your time watching charts and can wear down your mental state. Choosing the right targets means you’ve already won half the battle.

**Downward Movements Indicate the Strength of Rebounds**

Slow declines are usually accompanied by weak rebounds, while rapid drops often lead to quick recoveries. Understanding the rhythm of price movements helps you more accurately predict the strength of counter-trends.

**Stop-Loss Is a Prerequisite for Survival**

If you buy wrong, accept the loss and exit immediately. This is not surrender, but common sense. As long as your principal is still in hand, the next opportunity will come. Holding on stubbornly is just a countdown to bankruptcy. Many people die at this stage.

**15-Minute K-Line and Basic Indicators Are the Short-term Eyes**

Focus on the 15-minute chart when monitoring, combined with standard indicators like KDJ, to catch key buy and sell signals. But don’t mythologize indicators—tools are just tools; discipline and mental control are fundamental.

**Master One or Two Methods Enough**

There are countless schools of technical analysis, but you don’t need to master them all. Find one or two approaches that suit you, refine them repeatedly, and optimize details. It’s more practical than learning a hundred superficial methods. Depth beats breadth, and those who last long in the industry understand this.

Few truly profitable people in the circle rely on luck. Every profit behind their success is rooted in respect for risk and understanding market rhythm. These experiences may not guarantee constant gains, but they will save you from many detours.

That's very realistic. Stop-loss is truly a life-and-death line. I previously held on stubbornly, losing so much that I doubted my life.

That's so true. I've lost everything before due to stop-loss issues, and only then did I realize it's a lifeline. Now with small funds, I'm even more cautious, always carefully calculating the risks each time.

Stop-loss is truly a matter of life and death. I almost lost everything once because I stubbornly held on. --- Seven years, it’s exhausting just to hear about it. But I really understand the saying "If you don’t sell on the day of good news, you become the bagholder," it hits too close to home. --- Demo trading really isn’t useful; once real money is involved, it’s a whole different story, and your mentality completely collapses. --- With small funds, stability is more important. Thinking back, going all-in now seems so foolish. --- Before holidays, I always close all positions. I’d rather miss out than get caught in a trap. --- BTC and ETH are okay, but really don’t touch small coins, it’s mentally exhausting. --- I now always use the method of entering in batches; it’s much more comfortable than going all-in at once. --- Using 15-minute K-line with KDJ signals works pretty well, but in the end, self-discipline is still essential. --- What sounds good is cognitive understanding; what’s harsh is probably how many times the market has taught you. --- Mastering a trading method thoroughly is far better than just knowing everything else. Right now, I’m dead set on one approach. --- Slow decline and rapid drop really require different reactions. It takes time to truly understand this rhythm.

That's so true, the stop-loss point hit home. I've seen too many tragic scenes of stubbornly holding on.

That's so true. Stop-loss is really a matter of life and death. I've seen too many brothers stubbornly hold on until they wipe out everything... But honestly, execution is more difficult than cognition.

That's so true. The stop-loss rule really trapped a lot of people. I've seen some stubbornly hold on through a 20% loss, still waiting for a rebound, only to go to zero directly.
