Entering 2026, will you still persist in trading?



Observing the trading community around me, this year's reality has been quite harsh—the majority of people have suffered significant losses. While scrolling through Twitter, I see voices of making money, but among friends who are still discussing trading and actively participating, the situation is completely different.

To be honest, I can't always make a profit every time myself. But over the years, my ROI has still been positive. What's the difference behind this? Perhaps it's trading ability. Many retail investors appear to be trading, but in reality, they are several dimensions apart from experienced traders.

So where are the real opportunities to make money this year? This is a question worth pondering for everyone still in the market. Some have exited, some are still exploring, and some have already found their rhythm. Will the market in 2026 make this kind of differentiation even more obvious?

Rooted in trading, the old hands ignore trading groups after reading. This is the reality—people in the circle lose their minds, while the ones making money are all bragging on Twitter. To be honest, most people are not really trading; they're gambling. I didn't expect to win every trade, but the overall profit has still accumulated positively. The bad step is just... never mind, what's the use of saying it. Those who can survive until 2026 are probably just this many.

ngl most of my friends got absolutely liquidated this year, but back in my mining days i learned that gas fees and network congestion kill more portfolios than bad trades ever could. ROI calculations show the real winners aren't even trading—they're just running L2s while everyone else bleeds out on mainnet. the scalability trilemma keeps biting people and they don't even realize it

Watching daily stories about making money on Twitter, but in reality, it's all heavy losses, hilarious --- Those who can make stable money are all silent; the loudest are the ones with zeroed accounts --- It's just a matter of those few dimensions, easy to say --- By 2026, either get rich or get wiped out, no middle ground --- Exiting the market is probably the smartest trading decision --- Having a positive cumulative ROI is really top-tier; most people are already bankrupt by then --- Looking for rhythm? I don't even know where the rhythm is right now --- I've heard enough of these words in the trader circle; I prefer to play with small on-chain coins for excitement

What are you insisting on? I've already shifted to a systematic strategy. Retail investor mentality is the root cause of losing money.

Stick to trading? Bro, I gave up on the dream of making money every month a long time ago. I just want to survive to see the next bull market. Retail investors and professional players are indeed not on the same level, I believe that. A positive ROI is also rare; how long does it take to accumulate?

Bro, stop with that. Honestly, it's just luck + survivor bias. Just because someone is making money on Twitter doesn't mean it's guaranteed. I don't buy it. Really, most people losing money is quite normal; this game is inherently zero-sum. Being able to stick around is one thing, but don't make earning money sound like some high-level skill. Mainly, it's just not hitting a major drawdown yet. I think 2026 is really about who can survive, and as for making money... honestly, doing long-term strategies steadily is more reliable. The difference between retail investors and institutions is valid, but more often it's about leverage and mindset. Why insist on anything? Going with the trend is the real key. Why force yourself to trade all the time? ROI being positive is indeed good, but what does that mean? It means others are losing. That's just how the market is. Sincerely asking, have you ever thought about not trading and actually earning even more?

Persistence? Haha, just staying alive is good enough, having a positive ROI is a luxury. --- The success stories on Twitter are all survivor bias; the real朋友圈 is already heartbreaking. --- It's just those few dimensions that matter. I just lack greed. --- Keep betting in 2026; anyway, I've already boarded the ship. --- The people who have exited are sleeping the best now. Have you seriously thought about it? --- People who find the rhythm are truly rare; I haven't seen a single one around me. --- A positive ROI is the real win; don't care how others died. --- This question is asked every year, but every year, someone still comes in to send money.

What to stick to? We've already been cut out early. Now I just want to figure out how those making money are actually doing it.

honestly, the survival bias in crypto trading is *wild* — everyone posting gains, but the exit rate tells a different story. show me the formal verification of your edge or it's just noise.

Persistence? Laughs. Most people should just wash up and go to sleep. Positive ROI is indeed rare; retail investors and professional players are worlds apart. The hype about making money on Twitter is all survivor bias; don't believe it. By 2026, it will depend on who can survive the storm; the divide will definitely be even more intense.
