Having been in the circle for over 8 years, from a novice to gradually understanding the tricks of the trade, I have experienced countless Get Liquidated and pullbacks. The pitfalls I have encountered and the tuition I have paid have ultimately allowed me to summarize a few key insights for long-term survival in the crypto market.

**First Rule: Rapid Rise, Slow Fall, Don't Rush to Cut**
This is usually not a signal of a peak, but rather a performance of the main force accumulating positions at low levels. What really needs to be vigilant is—after a sudden surge with increased volume, if there is a sudden sell-off, that is the signal for harvesting. Take XRP as an example, many times after a rapid price increase followed by a slight pullback, it is actually the eve of a stronger market trend.

**Article 2: Rapid Decline and Slow Rise, Do Not Catch the Bottom**
The small rebound after a flash crash is often just a false signal before offloading. Don't be misled by the illusion of "the decline has stopped"; this is the moment when the market easily harvests the psychology of luck.

**Article 3: High volume at high positions is not necessarily a bad thing; lack of volume is the most frightening.**
The presence of trading volume indicates that the battle between bulls and bears continues; if the volume shrinks to the extreme, it instead represents that the main force has quietly exited, leaving only air in the market.

**Article 4: Bottom Volume Needs to Look at Continuity**
The surge in trading volume in a single day is not enough to confirm a start. The real signal for building a position is continuous volume increase, especially a gradual and moderate increase in volume after consolidation.

**Article 5: The candlestick chart is superficial, the trading volume is substantive**
The price trends of mainstream coins like ETH and SOL often merely reflect market sentiment. Learning to understand changes in trading volume is what truly allows one to see through the market.

**Article 6: The highest realm is "emptiness"**
Only by being free from obsession can one maintain rationality; only by being free from greed can one dare to take profits in a timely manner; only by being free from fear can one have the courage to enter the market at crucial moments. The difficulty of controlling emotions is far greater than predicting trends.

The final insight: It is never the smartest people who make money, but those who are the most patient and disciplined. Direction is more important than speed.
