Many people tend to struggle the most in trading when they are actually losing the most. Conversely, those seemingly relaxed operators who wait repeatedly and strike precisely at the right moments can steadily profit.



What is the key here? It's the word "wait."

Wait for the price to reach your expected range. Wait for the market to give clear enough signals, rather than guessing blindly based on intuition. Wait for your profits to reach your target, rather than greedily trying to take more. Entering the market requires waiting, exiting requires waiting even more, and triggering stop-loss points also requires waiting. It may seem like everything is about waiting, but this is precisely the fundamental difference between trading and gambling.

Getting anxious is useless; in fact, rushing is the beginning of losing money. You might miss Opportunity A, but don’t rush to chase it—perhaps Opportunity B will come right away. For example, with highly volatile coins like ZEC, frequent trading only eats away at your profits through fees and slippage.

True trading masters are not judged by how complex their techniques are, but by how steady their mindset is. Making the right decision at the right time is the secret to sustained profits.

Exactly right. I used to be the kind of person who acted impulsively, constantly trading ZEC and having half of my profits eaten up by fees. Now I've learned to be patient, and I actually make more steady gains.

That's right, I used to be the kind of person who couldn't resist and would trade ZEC every day, only to get wiped out by slippage. Now I understand, you really just have to be able to endure the loneliness.

That's right. My biggest lesson in the past two years is that I lose the most when I get careless. The experience with ZEC almost bankrupted me; frequent trading really is like working for the exchange.

That's right, I kept trading ZEC frequently out of impatience and lost for several months. Now I've changed, and once the signals are reliable, it will be steady.
