#数字资产市场动态 Those who have been in the crypto world for a long time have all stepped on these pits



After checking six-figure accounts, I realized that the crypto market does not believe in luck, only in规律. This is not a success book, but a set of trading rules summarized from countless losses. If you want to make this a long-term career, these observations are worth careful consideration.

**First Pitfall: When the leading coin suddenly undergoes a sharp correction, it often hides the biggest opportunity**
Like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other top coins falling for 8 to 9 days in a row, everyone in the market feels uneasy. But savvy traders know—this is just a shakeout. The market isn’t selling the coin; it’s selling retail traders’ confidence.

**Second Pitfall: Know when to take profits after a surge**
Any coin that rises continuously for two days, greedily chasing the high will end up being trapped. In this market, knowing when to take profits at the right time is far more valuable than holding onto a coin blindly.

**Third Pitfall: A single-day large increase is not a buy signal**
When a coin’s daily increase exceeds 7%, it often continues to surge in the early trading hours the next day. But don’t rush to buy—true opportunity lies in observing whether this momentum can be sustained. Patience and confirmation signals often save you from many detours.

**Fourth Pitfall: Chasing highs is like giving money to the market makers**
The best entry points for top coins are never at high levels. Opportunities appear during pullbacks, volume contractions, and stabilization. Better to miss the initial move than to buy at the top with unclear signals.

**Fifth Pitfall: Over three days of sideways consolidation, risk signals should be heeded**
If a coin remains flat for over 72 hours without direction, it indicates a power struggle—this is when a sharp downward move can happen. Don’t fight uncertain markets.

**Sixth Pitfall: If the previous day’s decline cannot be recovered, the trend has changed**
If a coin still cannot recover its previous day’s loss after the next day’s open, the bullish momentum is basically broken. Instead of hoping for a rebound, it’s better to adjust your position promptly. Sometimes, stop-loss isn’t about admitting defeat but about surviving longer.

**Seventh Pitfall: The numerical patterns of K-line charts are very real**
Three consecutive bullish candles often trigger a new upward wave. If five bullish candles appear, the probability of seven in a row is quite high. Understanding K-line language is like grasping the market’s pulse.

**Eighth Pitfall: Volume never lies**
Low-volume breakout at a low price—main players are testing the waters. High-volume stagnation at a high price—whales are slowly offloading. Every abnormal volume movement corresponds to capital flow.

**Ninth Pitfall: Trend judgment determines trading success or failure**
A three-day moving average shifting from downtrend to uptrend indicates a short-term rebound is brewing. The 30-day moving average turning upward signals medium-term growth. When the 80-day line soars, the main upward wave has just begun. When the 120-day line surges, it often indicates a rare big market.

**Tenth Pitfall: Small capital can also turn around, but requires system and discipline**
Even with 5,000 yuan, it’s possible to grow to a million, provided three conditions are met: strictly follow your trading plan and never change strategies arbitrarily; establish a counterintuitive operation system to stay calm amid greed and fear; act decisively when opportunities arise and be unhesitating when risks approach.

The commonality of these ten observations is—they all come from real market repetitions. The crypto world is never short of stories of overnight riches, but those who survive three years are always a minority. True wealth isn’t about making the first million, but about maintaining it and continuing to grow it.

It sounds very impressive, but this "pattern" is essentially a game theory problem, and the ultimate winner will always be the party with asymmetric information. To put it simply, retail investors look at K-lines and trading volume, but the big players have long seen through how retail investors will interpret them. This is not a pattern; it is an inevitable result of incentive distortion. Surviving for more than three years is indeed rare, but not because the method is wrong, rather because most people simply cannot compete with the mechanism itself.

After all this talk, the core message is still — longevity is the real winner, don't fuss around.

That hits too close to home; many of these lessons were learned the hard way with money.

nah this whole "rules" thing is just cope for people who can't read on-chain data. volume patterns, moving averages... governance gets disrupted by the same logic tbh. protocol vulnerabilities don't care about your k-lines.

That's right, I chased at the high point that time and got trapped for half a year... Living is more important than making quick money.

Honestly, everything in this article is correct, but there are only a few who can really do it... --- Six-figure experience, just listen and forget it, those who are truly making money have already shut up. --- The most painful part is the stop-loss, how many people have died because of "this time it will definitely rebound." --- I have deep experience with volume; low-price volume increase is really a buy signal. --- Discipline > luck, this sentence is worth a ten-thousand-dollar tuition fee. --- What’s painful is knowing these patterns but still getting slapped in the face when executing... --- Watching the K-line patterns, I feel I was just blindly chasing before. --- Turning a small capital into a million, what kind of mentality does that require? I, this softie, simply can't do it. --- Is a big drop in the leading coin just a shakeout? I thought it was really going to be the end. --- Few people who have survived three years hit the pain point with that sentence.
