#数字资产市场动态 Holding a few thousand USDT but always feeling restless, wanting to jump in at every market move? What I want to say is: in the crypto world, the first hurdle to making money isn't technology, but learning to "hold steady."$SOL



Last week, a friend came to complain. His account had 5000U, like a hot potato—seeing the fierce upward trend, he wanted to throw more in. I asked him: was that previous loss because he missed the market move, or because he recklessly cut his positions? His reaction instantly froze—turns out, due to frequent trading, he turned his initial 800U into just over 200, losing a lot in fees, and his account was bleeding red day by day. This was exactly like my early experiences: staring at the K-line chart all day, rushing to place three orders every hour, but what happened? Fees kept piling up, while the principal kept thinning out.

The real turning point began when I set a strict rule for myself: no more than two trades per week, and if I wasn't confident, I would go in with a bare position. The first trade I held for four days until $SOL touched the 20-day moving average before entering. In just six hours, I made over a thousand dollars in unrealized profit and cashed out immediately. That moment, I finally realized: it wasn’t a technical shortcoming before, but simply the fear of missing out that dragged me along. Since then, before each move, I spend three days observing the market structure, feeling the market sentiment, and verifying if the trading volume is healthy. I set stop-loss and take-profit levels before executing. Interestingly, this "slower" approach actually made my account more stable.

Playing with small funds in crypto isn’t about how often you trade, but about making each trade precise and solid. Opportunities come and go like tides; what’s truly limited is your capital. Mastering your mindset is more valuable than anything else. The market cycle is about to turn, so instead of chasing every wave, it’s better to calm yourself first and wait for the most certain opportunity to knock—this is the ultimate secret for crypto players to survive longer and earn steadily.

That really hits home. I've also lost money step by step like this... The fees have eaten up more than the market loss. Now I stick to one principle: if I can't see through it, I don't move.

Really, frequent operations are like suicidal trading, with fees bleeding like a blood hole.

Exactly right, that's how I lost money. Frequent trading really is a fee harvesting machine.

Exactly right, but execution is too difficult. As soon as I see a rise, I get itchy. Three days of observation? I simply can't sit still.

What you said is absolutely right, but it's just hard to execute, bro.
