Want to make stable profits in the crypto market? You need to first understand the fundamental logic of this trading system.
**Tip 1: Position yourself during panic, abandon the illusion of chasing the rally**
Many people make the mistake of chasing after a rise, which is essentially driven by emotions. This is like participating at a high price to profit from others. The truly smart approach is the opposite — during widespread panic and when prices break below key support levels, gradually enter the market. But here’s the prerequisite: you must have your own valuation system or understanding of the trend, rather than blindly bottom-fishing. Don’t dream of buying at the lowest point; that’s a false story.
**Tip 2: Respect the market, never bet on a single direction**
"Betting" not only refers to going long or short but also to putting all your chips on one coin or one direction. The market always has black swans; any gambler who bets everything will eventually be destroyed. The sensible approach is to diversify your assets. If you’re trading futures, treat it as a high-risk tool — keep your position very small, set stop-losses properly, and don’t compromise at all.
**Tip 3: Never go all-in, retain your主动权**
Someone who is fully invested has no choice left; they go from being a hunter to a prisoner judged by the market. The correct approach is to always keep 20%-30% of cash or stablecoins in reserve. This portion of your funds is your "strategic reserve" — it allows you to buy the dip during extreme declines and provides a chance to recover after mistakes. This is true trading freedom.

It's true, full position is just courting death.
---
People chasing the rise really deserve to lose money.
---
In the face of black swans, everyone is a fool; diversification truly saves lives.
---
Having cash in hand gives you the right to speak.
---
Listening to "bottom-fishing" is fine, but don't believe it blindly.
---
A 20% cash reserve is truly a dead end; holding it can turn the tide and lead to victory.
---
Going all-in is a gambler's game; it's not something you can afford to play.
---
Panic buying sounds simple but is hard to do; it can break your mindset.
---
Contracts are essentially a gallows prepared for greedy people.
---
The prisoner mentality is well explained; full position traders really have no choice.
---
Most people don't dare to stick to stop-loss settings once they set them.
---
The real difficulty lies in the value system; not everyone has it.
---
Asset allocation and diversification sound like insurance, but they are actually life-saving.
---
The absolute bottom doesn't really exist; that's the truth.

To be honest, those who are fully invested deserve to be cut.
---
Chasing the rally is all about the retail investors; I really look down on that.
---
I've used the 20-30% cash reserve tactic before, and it has indeed saved me a few times.
---
Black swan events can't be prevented; we can only pray.
---
The hardest part of bottom-fishing is actually psychological preparation; it's really difficult to make a move when prices fall.
---
I don't touch derivatives anymore; it's too easy to go bankrupt.
---
This logic sounds simple, but very few people actually execute it.
---
Asset diversification sounds good, but how to diversify properly is the real skill.

Full positions are all fools; listening to me is the right choice.

Full position = suicide. This has long been included in my risk control checklist; liquidation risk is no joke.

That's right, chasing the rally should have been thrown into the trash long ago.
Full position is suicide; I've seen too many lessons learned the hard way.
My question is, how to tell if I truly understand the trend or if I'm just lucky?
This approach is indeed more sober-minded, much more reliable than those big influencers who cut leeks.
Black swans can never be completely prevented; we can only pray.
The key is that most people simply can't do these three points; knowing and doing are worlds apart.
Maybe a bit idealistic, but in real trading, how can one be so calm?
Reserving 30% sounds simple, but when the bull market comes, can you really resist going all in?

That's right, going all-in is asking for death. I'm currently holding 30% cash and waiting for opportunities.

Only newbies go all in; that's spot on.

It's the same old story. It sounds good, but how many actually follow through?
