#密码资产动态追踪 "This wave, either make enough to cover the principal or don't bother!" That sentence has been echoing in my mind for five years.

I remember back in college, a buddy pooled together 10,000 USDT, eyes shining brightly, vowing to turn things around in the crypto world. The first two months, luck was on his side—his account grew from 10,000 to 30,000. But he was too greedy, holding onto a bearish position stubbornly, and in the end, got violently liquidated, leaving his account at zero. He disappeared for more than half a year.

What I didn't expect was that three years later, he came back. This time was different—the account had grown to seven figures, but his demeanor was much calmer than before. No more of the impulsiveness from before, only a sense of detachment.

Honestly, my own experience hasn't been much better. I've been wiped out, traded on shady exchanges, and suffered continuous losses to the point of questioning life. During my darkest days, I had only a few thousand in my bank card, and I had to grit my teeth and endure in the market to pay rent. But I made it through. What supported me wasn't luck or secret tricks, but a series of "life-saving rules" earned with real money.

Today, I want to share these experiences—some words might be harsh, but they are genuine and valuable.

**About Market Trends**

Rapid rise followed by slow decline—most of the time, it's the main players accumulating. You'll see a certain coin surge wildly, but when it falls, it meanders down little by little. This kind of movement is the most confusing, easily leading you to believe there's still hope. True tops are usually different—big volume long bearish candles, dropping straight down with little room for negotiation.

After a sharp drop, a rebound often occurs, and many see this as an opportunity. But think the other way around—this is actually when the main players love to offload. They will deliberately push the price up, creating the illusion that the bottom has arrived, luring latecomers to buy in. Once your mentality loosens, it's easy to get trapped.

**The Secrets of Volume**

High volume at high prices isn't necessarily the worst—at least it shows funds are still flowing. The real danger is when volume at high levels is sluggish—if the volume dries up, it means strong funds have quietly pulled out. At this point, even if the price remains high, it's just a facade.

Volume at the bottom needs to be sustained. A day or two of high volume isn't a problem—it might just be a short-term technical adjustment. But if it continues for several days, it indicates that institutions are truly building positions. Many people overlook this detail.

**The Essence of the Market**

After so many years, I am more certain of one thing: the market's operating logic remains the same. What's changing isn't the market itself, but the group of people entering it, batch after batch. Some rush in impulsively and get caught in the middle of a move. Others try to bottom fish, only to sink deeper. It's not that they aren't smart, but that they are going the wrong way—no matter how hard they try, it's all in vain.

Coins like $BNB, $ZEC over the years have shown us that technical patterns repeat. As long as you observe carefully, you can identify those traps. The most important thing is to strictly follow risk management—sounds dull, but it can truly save your life.

Ultimately, the logic of making money is simple: find high-probability entry points, set stop-losses, and let profits run. No reliance on luck or gambling—just these repeatedly tested methods and respect for risk.
