Those who truly make money in this market never rely on frequent trading—they succeed by holding onto their chips with patience.
Just look at the trends of $ZEC, #数字资产行情上升 , and other such assets. It’s not the market’s fault; it’s that your understanding hasn’t kept up. Feeling like you’re always targeted by the market? Actually, it’s because you haven’t figured out which cycle you’re in. The logic for big funds making money is simple: confirm the direction and then be able to hold steady.
When it’s time to buy, don’t hesitate; when it’s time to hold, stay firm. Many people’s problems aren’t with technicals—they’re stuck on one word—impatience. What’s the most common regret in a bull market? Selling too early. Observing the gap between professional traders and retail investors essentially boils down to understanding time and mental discipline.
Why does the market always harvest most people? Because most are fixated on every candlestick, emotionally driven by short-term fluctuations, constantly swinging between fear and greed. The truth is: small oscillations test patience, while big trends reward those with the right understanding. Learning to wait is more crucial than learning to buy and sell.

That's right, it's a mindset issue. I've seen too many people want to run after making a little profit, and as a result, miss the entire market wave.
Holding on is really harder than anything else.
Regarding that ZEC wave, I also got out early and now I regret it to death.

You're right, it's just that there are too many impulsive people... I am one of them too. Watching $SUI plummet, I wanted to buy the dip but ended up getting slapped in the face. Now I've learned to do nothing.
Retail investors are always the ones who can't hold on; big players have long since laid back.
This wave is truly a game of mentality, not a game of technology.
Wait, wait, wait, it's really more profitable than just trading... I believe it.
Buy and it drops, sell and it rises—maybe the problem isn't the market, but my impatient heart.

That's right, but I started holding from the $ZEC wave and up to now, what's the result? The account is still in loss. So does this theory really apply to all cryptocurrencies, or am I just part of the group that lacks understanding haha.

That's right, but too many people like to chase highs and sell lows, and then blame the market for being unfair.
Holding steady with the words "hold tight," sounds simple, but actually doing it is really tough.
The group of people who already sold early, now see others making money, and can't sit still.

Holding onto chips is easier said than done. A bunch of people around me regret selling too early when $SUI was rising, and now they're starting to trade frequently again...
This is the inner demon, really.
The cost of waiting is the highest, but the returns are also the most outrageous.
