After crawling and rolling in the crypto world for a long time, you will understand a reality: most of the time, losing money is the standard.

Those who post profit screenshots on social media are often not the real traders making money. The ones who can truly survive have gone through what? They have repeatedly been taught lessons by the market and struggled on the edge of despair countless times. Some couldn't hold on and exited, while others persevered. Those who can endure gradually become the "weirdos" in the eyes of others - they no longer chase after highs and sell at lows, no longer listen to rumors, and even no longer trade frequently.

How did this transformation come about? It was something finally realized after repeatedly reviewing in the dead of night. The market will not reverse just because you pray for it, and technical analysis will not be accurate just because you are firm in your beliefs. There is only one thing that is truly useful: follow the rules and go with the trend. It sounds simple, but it requires a price to be paid in practice.

The seemingly indifferent composure is actually a quality that comes after repeatedly getting up from the brink of collapse. What traders really need to overcome is not the candlestick charts or their opponents, but the two demons within themselves—greed and fear. Greed makes you heavily invest at high prices, while fear makes you sell at a loss during a downturn. Only by overcoming these two can one possibly unlock the door to sustained profits.

No one said this road is not lonely. At two in the morning, still watching the charts, holding still during wild market fluctuations, remaining silent amidst the boasting in the friend circle—this is indeed lonely. But it is precisely because of this loneliness that true trading discipline and market insight can be forged. In the end, what is won is not only the growth of account numbers but also that genuine sense of certainty and peace within.
