#美联储回购协议计划 A ten-year real account of the crypto world: simple strategies outperform complex operations



Having been in the market for ten years, my account figures are still quite decent. But honestly, it’s not luck that got me here; it’s through countless pitfalls and lessons learned along the way.

**My first painful realization**

The biggest mistake I made early on was not being able to sit still. During market fluctuations, I always had that thought—"If I don’t trade, I’ll lose." So what happened? Frequent entries and exits, making small profits but suffering big losses. Hard-earned gains vanished in unnecessary trades. Looking back now, those seemingly critical operations were actually unnecessary.

**The three ironclad rules I rely on now to survive**

First is asset selection. I only trade coins that are already active and clearly receiving market funds. The top gainers list itself is a signal of capital flow, which may lead to more opportunities.

Second is a macro perspective. I don’t play short-term volatility; I focus on larger trend directions. When the market is unclear, I stay put. Trying to catch the bottom rebound without clear signals? I almost never consider it, as the risk-reward ratio doesn’t match.

Third is a strict entry and exit mechanism. Key moving averages are signals to add positions; if the price falls below, I cut losses immediately. When gains reach a certain level, I take profits; if the trend reverses, I exit. No need to cling to beliefs.

**How to take profits without regret**

My approach is to take profits in stages. When the price rises, I lock in part of the gains first, and keep the rest to follow the trend. Once the pattern confirms again, I make the next move. This way, I can enjoy the market’s upside without greedily trying to recover all profits at once.

**Final words**

To be honest, stable profits come down to this—strict discipline, abandoning fantasies of huge gains, and gradually accumulating. Following this logic, you may not become a billionaire, but making steady money is definitely achievable. Opportunities will come, impulsiveness is the enemy. Controlling your impulses is the key to long-term survival.

Sounds like it's talking about myself. That part about frequent operations really hit home; everyone who has lost money understands. That's right, stopping oneself is the hardest thing, but living long is what makes you a winner. A ten-year account statement is just a history of blood, tears, and self-discipline, nothing else. Damn, if only I had heard this ten years ago. Looking back now, those days of frequent entry and exit were really an IQ tax. Batching out is indeed a brilliant move; greed is a common flaw among retail investors. Honestly, this is the real logic of making money. It's not about complicated strategies, just discipline plus patience.

Oh man, after ten years of ups and downs, it's still the same stuff. Frequent trading really is a killer for retail investors, no doubt about it.

Ten years of struggling and crawling, it sounds easy, but few actually survive. This guy speaks very honestly. I need to get "self-control" tattooed on my finger—so many people die from frequent operations.

Sounds good, but isn't it just another way of saying frequent stop-loss? Can such stability really make money?

That's right, surviving for ten years already means you've won. You're much better than those who chase gains and sell off every day.

Ten years or more of frequent trading, only those who truly survive understand the importance of stop-loss strategies.

Ten years of frequent trading and still losing money? I believed it, but most people simply can't stick to this discipline. Really, the easiest part to break in stop-loss is the discipline; seeing a slight dip makes you want to buy more.
