Having been in the crypto circle for over ten years, never breaking a million in your account? You might be overcomplicating the problem.



Market opportunities are actually not lacking; those who can endure are the real rarity.

I've heard too many stories: rushing in during a bull market and risking everything, only to surrender when a bear market arrives; holding on tightly at the first sign of good news, then getting liquidated at the slightest pullback; after a whole year of turmoil, ending up with less than when they entered.

The ones who can truly turn the situation around are not the traders who chase hot topics the best, but those who know how to exercise restraint.

Based on years of practical experience, I’ve compiled a set of "Living and Profiting Trading Frameworks."

**Rule 1: Don’t operate blindly with small capital.**
Getting one main upward wave per year is enough; frequent all-in bets only drain costs. Keep enough cash on hand to reserve bullets for the next opportunity.

**Rule 2: Don’t trade unfamiliar assets.**
If the logic isn’t clear and you can’t see through the funding situation, don’t use real money to pay tuition.

**Rule 3: Don’t sell on the day good news is realized; if it opens high the next day, exit.**
Greedy people are never favored by the market; only those who act quickly can reap the benefits.

**Rule 4: Reduce positions proactively before holidays.**
Exchanges will always give you "surprises" during holidays, and 99% of the time, they’re negative.

**Rule 5: Use staggered entries and exits.**
Don’t gamble on a specific price point; trade within ranges so that costs are naturally leveled.

**Rule 6: Focus on highly liquid coins for short-term trading.**
Coins without volume are traps when they rise, and bottomless pits when they fall.

**Rule 7: Be patient during slow declines; only bottom-fishing during panic dumps.**
As long as the trend isn’t over, don’t rush to be a hero.

**Rule 8: Cut losses decisively.**
Admit mistakes; survival is a hundred times more important than saving face.

**Rule 9: Use 15-minute K-line charts for short-term analysis.**
The combined signals of K-line structures, KDJ, MACD, and RSI are more reliable than your intuition after watching the screen all day.

**Rule 10: Don’t learn too many technical indicators.**
Mastering one indicator thoroughly is enough to support your trading for three years.

Finally, I want to honestly say: in the crypto world, it’s never about who’s smarter, but about who’s more patient.

Can endure greed, can endure restlessness, and can resist the urge to trade frequently. Keep your principal alive, and hope remains alive; when the opportunity truly arrives, one decision can change the entire account.

Next, I will also break down in detail how to identify that "one" critical move—why some traders only make one trade all year but still manage to make their accounts take off.

Friends interested in a deeper understanding can stay tuned.

Ten years without breaking a million shows you're just gambling, not trading.

Hmm... there's nothing wrong with that, but this patience is really damn hard to endure.

Once again, the same old story, talking eloquently, but when it comes to actual operation, I still get nervous.

That hits hard. After ten years, still losing—it's truly deserved. Frequently all-in is just giving money to the exchange.

There's nothing wrong with that, it's just one word—patience. I'm only looking at the 15-minute chart right now, and I ignore everything else.

There's nothing wrong with that, but for those who haven't reached a million in ten years, ten rules won't save them. The root cause is a poor mindset.
