#BTC#BEES BTC ETH Buy, buy, buy—such a low market cap, everyone buy together. Consensus will make any coin rise; even Bitcoin relies on everyone’s consensus. The lower the market cap, the bigger the opportunity. The little bee—its honey is sweet and helps memory; it's a hardworking little bee. Where are the flowers? The little bee goes there—it represents beauty. Everyone, consensus, buy, buy, buy, and it will instantly shoot up to 999. The whales are coming soon, so keep buying. In the future, wherever life is beautiful, that's where we go.
I've seen many people stay up late every day monitoring the market, never putting their phone down. And what’s the result? Most of their profits are eaten up by fees, and they end up feeling exhausted all the time. Conversely, those seemingly lazy professional traders might only actively trade for 1-2 hours a day, yet their accounts steadily grow. What’s the difference?
**Master these three time periods, and your efficiency can double**
The first 10-15 minutes after the market opens are the most critical. The first thing professional traders do isn’t rushing to look at the market, but quickly reviewing overnight policy movements and global market fluctuations. Then, they write down today’s plan clearly: "What signals to enter, at what decline to cut, at what rise to take profits." Post it on the screen.
What about retail traders? They open their charts as soon as they wake up, impulsively trade at the opening price, and their emotions are completely tied to the market.
The key during trading hours is—less action. Don’t rush in the first 30 minutes after opening; observe how the market sentiment develops. If your plan isn’t triggered, sit back and have some tea. Wait until the conditions are right before making a move. Reject any urges to "add positions out of boredom" or "chase high impulsively." Keep each trade’s loss within 2% of your total account balance.
Most retail traders? When the K-line moves, they click their mouse immediately. Over a day, the fees could have paid for a whole shop.
The real battleground is actually after the market closes. Professional traders review each trade: Why did they enter? Did they follow the plan? Were they influenced by messages in the group? Then simulate extreme market conditions—what if a black swan appears? Can your current holdings withstand it? Practice the rhythm of cutting losses in advance. Finally, record this week’s win rate, profit-loss ratio, and maximum drawdown in a table, using data to control the illusion of luck in your mind.
What about retail traders? They close the software and watch short videos, then repeat the cycle the next day.
**Change your approach**
Set aside 15 minutes every morning to plan, and focus only on 3 or fewer targets. During the day, set a half-hour alarm to remind yourself: "Is my current operation still within the plan?" In the evening at 8 PM, review what was your most impulsive trade today. If you make the same mistake three days in a row, stop trading that day.
The market itself isn’t scary; what’s frightening is reacting casually against human nature’s routines and the market’s laws. The boundary between professional and amateur isn’t about how accurate your market judgment is, but whether you’re willing to engrain boring discipline into your muscles.
