#BTC资金流动性 Why are most traders losing money? I have summarized the truth with my five years of experience.


In recent years in the world of cryptocurrencies, we have seen countless people enter enthusiastically and then exit coldly. The key is that the problem is not with the market itself, but whether we have understood the true root of the losses.
**The first obstacle: emotions control your account**
Chasing highs, cutting lows, chasing highs again, cutting lows again: novices are repeatedly consumed in this deadly cycle. When the market rises, they fear missing out and, in a frenzy, they dive in; at the slightest pullback, they get scared and sell at the lowest point. Fear and greed take turns, destroying your trading plan.
**Second obstacle: the explosion of information makes you lose focus**
Every day, bombarded by various trading signals, market interpretations, and rumors, it is difficult to distinguish between true signals and false noise. Hearing that a certain coin is going to take off and rushing to buy, treating "possibility" as "inevitability," ultimately turns one into a player of market emotion.
**The third obstacle: leverage is a double-edged sword**
"A 10x leverage, a 10% increase means doubling the account" sounds extremely tempting, but no one warns you what that inverse fluctuation of 10% means: direct liquidation. Leverage not only amplifies the profit curve but also amplifies greed and panic in human nature.
**The fourth obstacle: transitioning from bettor to trader, thanks to a system**
The people who can really survive in the long term follow a few iron rules:
**The signal takes priority over the feeling** — Judge using clear technical indicators or fundamental logic, do not rely on intuition.
**Risk control per trade** — The maximum loss per trade should not exceed 2% of the total capital, so even if there are consecutive losses, not everything will be lost.
**Clear entry and exit conditions** — At what price to enter, under what circumstances to exit, where to set the stop-loss, write the rules in advance.
Taking ETH as an example, if I build a position near 3000 dollars, I will enter three or four times ( without the total position exceeding 40% of the account ), I will place the stop-loss below the key support level, and I will take profit in segments once I have made gains, while the remaining part will follow a trailing stop-loss.
Market changes are unpredictable, but trading principles are unalterable. The ability to get rich overnight depends on the market environment and luck, but the ability to survive long-term depends on whether you can truly control your emotions and execute discipline. This is the difference.
