As someone who has been in the trading market for 8 years, I share my trading insights with a sense of cherishing my family.

The crypto market is highly volatile; a 20%-30% increase or decrease in a day is not uncommon. The most important lesson I’ve learned is: never hold a full position, always set stop-loss orders.
Leverage is a double-edged sword. I recommend beginners start with spot trading, with leverage no more than 3x, and limit single trade losses to 1%-2% of total capital. Stop-loss is not about giving up; it’s about giving yourself another chance to trade.

Emotional management is an invisible moat for traders. Fear of missing out and panic selling are the two main culprits of losses.

During a big rally, ask yourself: Is this a good time to chase the high? Or are the big players distributing?
During a sharp decline, ask yourself: Has the fundamentals changed? Or is it just market overreaction?
Strategy is more important than prediction. No one can consistently predict the market accurately.

Record and review: the value of a trading journal
Every trade should be documented: entry reasons, position size, take profit and stop loss levels, reflections after closing.
Track your win rate and risk-reward ratio to understand your true skill level.
Regular review helps identify your pattern-based mistakes.
Even losing trades, if executed correctly, are more valuable than blindly guessing to make money.

Crypto market survival rules
Trading is not a romantic relationship; if it’s time to leave, just leave. Don’t hold on stubbornly because of “faith.”
Trading isn’t about seeking excitement; it’s about sustained profitability. Accept small losses and small gains, wait for big opportunities to go all-in. Holding cash is also part of trading. If you’re not confident, don’t trade. Don’t compare your returns with others—only compare your progress with yourself.

Finally, I want to share a word with all friends: “The market is always there; opportunities are available every day. If your capital is gone, the game is over.”

Stay humble, keep learning. The crypto market rewards those who are disciplined and patient.
