In 2019, I jumped into the crypto world with only 10,000 yuan. Six years later, my assets finally surpassed eight figures. This is not a fairy tale about pies falling from the sky, but the result of over 1,000 days and nights of professional training and relentless perseverance.

I have tried long-term positioning, short-term trading, and swing trading. If you ask who has the most say in the trading world, I dare to speak frankly. Reviewing my trades for 8 hours every day, anchoring myself in over 200 trading days each year, for a full six years, only then did I barely step into the threshold of stable profitability. And during these six years, you are bound to experience at least one major pit that could bury most people forever.

The first piece of advice is simple: before experiencing two complete bull and bear cycles, never add your principal beyond your psychological tolerance. I have seen too many smart people rush from tens of thousands to hundreds of millions through high-leverage contracts, only to go completely silent after a wave of bear market. In the face of trends, people simply cannot control themselves. You cannot change the market, but you can change yourself — this is true cultivation.

Financial markets never believe in assumptions, only results. If you don’t get results, you must have done something wrong somewhere. Consistently producing results means you are doing something right somewhere. Your way of thinking shapes your daily choices, and your daily choices determine the final outcome.

Losing money is not scary; what’s scary is losing it mindlessly. Find the root cause, then eliminate it as if destroying an enemy. Adults must pay for their choices. Don’t pretend to work hard, because results never act in dramas.

Crypto investing starts with the "Three Abandons":

1. Abandon luck mentality — the market will punish every gambler
2. Abandon the obsession with getting rich quickly — slow is actually fast
3. Abandon trading outside your cognitive range — money you don’t understand shouldn’t be yours

Before placing an order, ask yourself four questions: Do I really understand? What is my basis? What are my strategy and risk control? Can I accept failure calmly? Find the boundary of your ability circle; this is the first lesson for investors.
