#大户持仓动态 $ZEC In this round of the market, I am increasingly convinced of one point: in the crypto world, it's no longer about predicting the direction, but about mastering the rhythm.



Recently, I was chatting with a friend, and he threw out a sentence. I was still half-believing at the time. But thinking about it carefully, it really hit the nail on the head.

Everyone often wrestles with a question—are spot trading or futures better? Actually, that's the wrong question. The key isn't the trading method, but that the market has changed. The old routine of "holding spot will always go up" has been beaten to a pulp by the market. You think holding quality tokens is advantageous, but in reality, they are slowly shrinking in value.

I know a guy who, during a bull market, went all-in on spot, vowing to hold long-term. As a result, during a bear market correction, his account dropped from 100,000 U to 10,000 U, and he was completely wiped out emotionally. Later, when I mentioned crypto again, he waved it off and said he was done. I’ve fallen into this trap before too—thinking long-term holding would work, only to see profits wiped out in a quick correction.

The turning point came from a reflection—rather than betting on the direction, it’s better to learn how to catch the rhythm. Jump on opportunities during swings, take profits when they appear. Even earning only 10% or 20% per trade, the key is stability and repeatability. This isn’t about luck; it’s about hitting the rhythm precisely.

What does the current market look like? Mainstream coins are lacking momentum, and $APR smaller tokens are even more miserable—mythical stories are pointless. To make money from the market, the first lesson is to learn how to defend.

The survival rule in crypto is simple: making money depends on rhythm, protecting your capital depends on position sizing. Take a profit and exit quickly, lock in risks, earn some returns every month, and the power of compound interest over a year is astonishing. This is the right way.

The past era was about storytelling and imagination; now it’s about execution and discipline. Many can read the market, but those who truly make money are those who can adjust promptly and change when needed. This is the dividing line between veterans and rookies.

If you still can’t grasp the market rhythm now, why not try a different approach—start with small swings, accumulate experience, and gradually build your own trading system.

You're right, rhythm is indeed the key. I used to hold on tightly all the time, but now I switch to swing trading and take some profits before exiting, which feels much better.

It's that same "rhythm theory" again... It sounds nice, but I've seen too many people who start by selling at 10% profit, only to end up trapped in the middle of the mountain. Selling at the rebound sounds good, but there's always a lower point waiting. Be patient, don't rush.

Exactly right, the old method of just lying back and earning with spot trading is outdated. You really need to learn to exit after taking profits.
