Lying wins can actually surpass 99% of traders?



It sounds like bragging, but the data is right in front of us.

The key question is: what are we really pursuing in trading? The thrill of daily operations or genuine profits?

Let's look at two real cases. Our market maker account performs impressively in three key metrics—stable trading volume, optimized liquidity, and substantial fee rebates. How does it compare to an ordinary account on a major exchange? Higher trading frequency, but the net profit curve is oscillating.

What's the difference? One is a consistently stable, strategy-driven approach, and the other pursues frequent operations. The former earns systematic returns, while the latter seeks psychological satisfaction.

Many people think that more trades mean more professionalism, but actually, it's noise. Mature participants have long understood: less is more. The logic of market making is straightforward—precise positioning, continuous liquidity provision, and letting time and mechanisms work for you. No need to watch the screen every day; profits can be steadier this way.

If you're still adjusting your positions for every small fluctuation, take a look at this comparison. Maybe it's time to redefine what it means to "be good at trading."

Let me think again. The logic of "lying down to win" is actually just tricking inexperienced people into becoming market makers... Those who are truly making money quietly are already getting rich without making a fuss everywhere.

Lying down to win… I do believe in it to some extent, anyway it's less costly than messing around every day and losing more. My experience is a bit different, but I’ve indeed found that frequent trading can't save my account at all, and instead the fees eat up half of the profits. This market maker logic sounds very reasonable, but I don’t know how ordinary people can participate. It always feels like there's some barrier that hasn't been mentioned. Well, actually it's just greed. Clearly, making money while lying down is more stable, but I insist on watching the K-line every hour, making myself uncomfortable.

Here are the translations: 1. Yet again hearing stories of lying flat and winning, really? I don't believe it, I’ve been liquidated. 2. Market maker stable income vs. frequent trading, in simple terms, is risk control points vs. gambler mentality. 3. Less is more? I swear every time I go all-in is more, and then there’s nothing afterward. 4. Wait, not watching the market actually makes more money? Then what have I been doing all these three years watching K-line charts every day? 5. Liquidation price is what I know best, lying flat is too far from me. 6. Systematic income sounds great, but I’m better at systematic liquidation. Wish I knew earlier that a thousand gold is hard to buy early knowledge. 7. It’s always about market maker accounts stories, I just want to ask how do ordinary retail investors learn? 8. Admit it, 99% of traders actually die from forced liquidation, not strategy. 9. Lending rate, collateral rate, liquidation price... I know these inside out, but I’ve never managed to lie flat. 10. Frequent rebalancing is indeed noise, but when losing everything, frequent rebalancing is a lifesaver. 11. The true reflection of me is bottom-fishing to bankruptcy, with pictures and facts.

This is not a stable strategy; it's purely a survivor bias story. Market makers can be stable? Haha, that's because they have liquidity mining subsidies, and retail investors like us don't. I just want to know which of those who tried this logic 18 months ago are still alive.

To be honest, I used to be the kind of person who made over ten trades a day, and as a result, I lost terribly. Looking back, it really just means giving the exchange trading fees.
