Many people in the crypto world are messing around but overlook the simplest truth.



Instead of constantly watching the charts, switching frequently, and risking liquidation with leverage, it's better to change your mindset—slow down, and you might earn more steadily. Someone used this method with 3000U and gradually grew it to 24,000U. This is not a magical number; an 8x return is hard to achieve but also simple. The hard part is that most people would rather smartly lose money than clumsily make money.

There are many "experts" in the crypto space. When news comes out, they go all-in, switch coins every three minutes, leverage to the max, and end up staring at the K-line in confusion. It’s not that they don’t try hard, but they put their effort in the wrong place. In crypto, it’s never about how fast your hands are, but whether your mindset is stable enough.

The truly effective method involves three steps—

**Step 1: Wait for the wind to come**
Only take small positions when the trend first appears, starting with a 3% core position. Don’t guess the bottom or bet on news; just wait quietly. The market never mistreats those who are patient.

**Step 2: When the wind rises, add positions**
When the trend begins to confirm and the market becomes active, increase your position to 20%-50%. Don’t chase the peak; leave the main players to do their thing. Focus on the most solid middle part.

**Step 3: When the wind stops, walk away**
When the market peaks, withdraw immediately and leave the scene. Don’t look back at the K-line. The market is like an ATM—only those who are sober-minded know the password.

This method isn’t exciting, but it works. One trader lost over 40% but, in just three months, used this logic to recover his losses and even buy a car. Another fan started with 200U and grew it to 6,000U solely through position management. He said, “It turns out slow is fast.”

There’s really no profound technique in crypto. Ultimately, it’s a battle of mindset and stamina with your positions. Your losses aren’t because you don’t understand the charts, but because you can’t control your hands, desires, or greed.

Two paths lie ahead: continue to be the “smart person” in the volatility, or be a little dumber and steadier, managing your funds well. The market will always reward those who can endure.

It's the same old story, sounds convincing but it's actually endurance. Talking about it easily, but actually doing it is deadly.

That's so true. I used to be the kind of "smart person" who constantly switches, but I ended up losing big. Now I realize that slow is actually fast.

Exactly right, it's just that losing control of your hands drags people down. I've seen too many people switch coins every three minutes, only to end up losing their pants. Taking it slow can actually be faster. This sounds like a motivational quote, but some people have truly turned their fortunes around with this approach. The key is still mindset; the market is just that simple and brutal. It's another mindset theory; it seems everyone understands it, but few can actually do it. A 3% base position is indeed stable, but when the market moves, some people still can't resist going all-in. Growing from 200U to 6000U sounds very inspiring, but how many failed trades did it take to achieve this success? It's really a test of human nature—greed causes you to lose the moment you give in.

That's so true. I have a bunch of buddies around me who shout "I understand now" every day but end up liquidating their positions month after month. They're probably better off just waiting patiently for the right moment. Taking it slow is faster. How many times do I have to say this before some people get it? All-in, leverage, frequent coin switching—this combo is just suicidal. Who's to blame? Not understanding the chart isn't the reason for losing; losing control of your hands is the real killer. It hits hard. I'm just wondering, why do you have to lose money to learn how to stay calm?

That's right, it's just that I can't control my hands, and I've stumbled before... Now I've become smarter. It's the same old theory, but it feels a bit too idealistic. How many people can actually stick to it in practice? 3% position building sounds easy, but when the trend starts to show, the itch to act kicks in—it's human nature. I've heard of traders cashing out to buy a car, but most people end up dead on the leverage road. Slow is fast, I believe that. But when it comes to execution, I always think about doubling quickly... Greed really is a poison. Actually, the hardest part isn't learning the method, but learning when not to move.

That's right, those around me who are making money are the ones who can hold back, while those who watch the market every day are the ones losing money. It's good to say, but very few people can actually do it. I know it myself but can't do it. Taking it slow is actually faster. It sounds smooth, but everyone wants to fast forward and exit quickly when it comes to execution. Mindset is the hardest part. I've tried the 3% starting move, but waiting is too uncomfortable... I still can't help but add to my position. Compared to methodology, I want to know more—are you still going all-in now or have you really become more ruthless? Doubling your investment is just a matter of time. The problem is most people can't endure until that moment; their mindset collapses. This logic sounds very correct, but as soon as the market crashes, everyone forgets it. That's exactly how I am.
