#数字资产市场动态 That autumn, with an 8,000 yuan year-end bonus in hand, I trembled in a humble rented room as I confirmed my first on-chain transaction.



Clumsy address input, repeatedly double-checking decimal points—this was my initial encounter with crypto trading.

It was a brutal start. Once, I impulsively chased a small coin at a high price, and within three days, my account evaporated 30,000 yuan. I lay on the bed staring at the ceiling, unable to sleep for three consecutive nights.

That loss hit me hard like a heavy punch. But it also woke me up: the market won't go easy on you just because you're a beginner. You must learn to protect your principal.

Then I started studying furiously. MACD, RSI, trend lines—one notebook after another was filled with my notes.

Gradually, I learned not just to listen to calls but to understand the market's "temperament."

Once, a certain coin showed a very obvious overbought signal, and the entire community was shouting "Takeoff." I gritted my teeth and sold all my holdings. Seven days later, it plummeted 40%. At that moment, I finally understood: hype is an illusion; data is the truth.

I developed a daily ritual: first analyze the market structure, then check price movements. Record key data and observe the rhythm of main funds.

Last year, a hot project was all the rage online, but I checked the code repository and found that submission frequency suddenly dropped off a cliff. My intuition told me something was wrong, so I went all-in cash. Three months later, the narrative around that project was dead.

What has kept me alive until today isn't some brilliant trade, but a set of ironclad rules.

For example, never allocate more than 15% of your position—this is the bottom line I learned through real money in the market.

Never bet all chips on a single wager.

Now, the numbers in my account have long since changed. But those numbers are just byproducts of the process.

The most valuable thing is the judgment I’ve honed over the years through review, patience, and self-discipline.

The crypto market is never short of opportunities, but those opportunities only belong to those who walk steadily and far. Don’t dream of overnight success; focus on doing your daily homework well, and time will naturally take you to where you’re supposed to go. $SOL

Really, the part about losing 30,000 in three days resonated with me so much—that's exactly what it feels like to be beaten down by the market.

Well said, but to be honest... that 15% position limit was probably summarized afterwards, right? Who can think of these things when actually chasing the high? I just want to know now how your ability to "understand the market’s temperament" is worth something—can it be turned into money?

The feeling of losing 30,000 in one night, spinning around in bed... You really have to get beaten up by the market to wake up. The 15% position is a bottom line I also learned the hard way.

Oh, you're so right. I'm also the kind of fool who gets burned for chasing highs. Right now, I'm holding firmly at the 15% line and never want to go through that three-day evaporation nightmare again.

ngl the "code commit frequency drops = death sentence" bit hits different... that's some real detective work, not the usual discord cope

Started with 8,000 and ended up with 30,000 lost. How strong does your mindset have to be to get through that... ngl, learning technical analysis really saves lives.

It's all nonsense. The last sentence, "Do your daily homework," is really laughable. So many people just do their homework day after day and then get cut.
