#密码资产动态追踪 A friend recently came to complain: "I've been trapped 8 times in a row, is there still hope?"



I asked him a question: "Do you know why you keep getting trapped?"

He gave his own answer: "I follow the trend as soon as I hear the news, go all-in at every rise, and hold on tightly when it drops without cutting."

In simple terms—he has no trading plan at all, relying solely on intuition.

I summarized three core rules for him:

**Rule 1**: Only consider a true breakout when volume surpasses the previous high; a volume-driven surge with less volume is just the main players诱多.

**Rule 2**: Don't chase coins that have increased more than 20%; wait for a pullback to the 5-day moving average before considering entry.

**Rule 3**: In consolidation zones, know how to sell high and buy low; avoid coins with unclear directions.

He said his account now has less than $500 left. What should he do?

I told him: "As long as the account isn't zeroed out, there's still opportunity."

Then I designed a three-phase trading plan for him:

**Phase 1**: Use $100 to test hot spots, only invest 20-30U each time. The goal isn't huge profits but survival. Take a 20% gain and exit immediately. Stability over three rounds is most important.

**Phase 2**: After doubling the account to $1000, adopt three strategies—fast-paced trades on leading coins with 15-minute fluctuations; weekly fixed investments in large-cap coins, avoiding chasing highs; long-term trades on coins just starting their trend, riding the entire main upward wave.

**Phase 3**: Remember this—if there's no opportunity, stay put; holding cash is more valuable than losing money by holding positions.

Two days ago, he sent another message: "Finally turned the tide, the biggest gain is that my mindset is stable now."

I replied: "The endgame of the crypto market isn't about how strong your technical skills are, but how clear your cognition is, and how disciplined you can be. You can't earn outside your cognitive range, nor can you hold profits beyond your ability."

Oh, mindset is really a big deal. I used to have the same problem. You're right, staying out of the market is better than holding a position blindly. That hits the nail on the head. This friend is lucky to have found a reliable person to guide him. I just lack this discipline, always wanting to take a gamble. It seems that stability is indeed more profitable than technical skills. Learned something new.

Oh no, isn't this the story that happened to me? I've played the all-in hype game too many times. --- 500U turnaround? The key is to hold back, it's really difficult. --- That last sentence was brilliant. Recognizing discipline and sticking to it really is half the battle won. --- Waiting for the five-day moving average to pull back before entering the market. It's easy to say but deadly to do because of the fear of missing out. --- Being out of the market is definitely more comfortable than holding a position, but psychologically it's tough. --- Having three consecutive stable exits, this rhythm is pretty good, at least the mindset can slowly recover. --- Everyone knows not to chase highs, but watching the soaring charts, I just can't help myself haha. --- I tried trading the 15-minute fluctuations of the leading coin, made some money but my heart couldn't take it. --- Money outside of your cognitive range really can't be earned, this is a hard truth.

Honestly, having a stable mindset is the key to success. --- Being able to turn around with 500U still depends on discipline. --- This logic really hits the mark; avoiding chasing highs is especially appealing to me. --- Money outside of my knowledge scope truly can't be earned, that’s a hard truth. --- Holding a vacant position is more valuable than losing money on a trade; I need to remember that. --- Being able to survive after being repeatedly trapped shows a top-tier mindset. --- Selling high and buying low sounds simple, but how many can actually do it? --- If there's no opportunity, just stay put. Easy to say, hard to do. --- Getting out at 20% loss—I'm truly impressed by this discipline. --- Having the wrong method or not making money ultimately boils down to the same thing.

This guy being trapped 8 times shows what? Still greed taking over, I guess. --- The rules sound right, but when it comes to execution, I get itchy. As soon as it rises, I want to go all in. --- Daring to say there's hope with 500U, how much are you fooling yourself? Haha. --- Fast-paced 15-minute level fluctuations, isn't this just gambling? Just a different name. --- Holding no position is more valuable than losing money. This sentence really hit me. I need to reflect. --- If your mindset is stable, you can turn things around? I think without proper skills, everything is pointless. --- Honestly, most people can't get through Phase 1; before their mindset stabilizes, their accounts are gone. --- Money outside my cognitive scope can't be earned. Then my cognitive scope is just too small.

Really, a positive mindset is the only lifeline; everything else is just an illusion.

It has proven that mindset is the primary productivity, and technology is secondary.

Wow, this guy's mindset is really saved. I also realized that staying out of the market is truly more comfortable than holding a position during a downturn.
