#ETH走势分析 What does winning a hundred times matter? One slip-up could mean Game Over.



People who lose money in the crypto world keep falling into these few traps:

The first pitfall: After hearing too many myths about getting rich quickly, I rushed in with a hot head. Everyone can tell the story of Bitcoin, but when it comes to actually operating, I directly bought a bunch of unknown altcoins. Without even understanding the fundamentals, my wallet became empty.

The second pitfall: Leveraging up to 100 times, thinking you are the chosen one. It's true that you can earn hundreds of thousands with a 1-point increase, but what about a 1-point decrease? Your account could be wiped out instantly. Not everyone can withstand this kind of stimulation; many have been swallowed by the temptation of high multiples.

The third pitfall: addiction to short-term trading. Chasing this today, switching to that tomorrow, feeling like a trader. What’s the result? Either getting stuck in a position or directly facing liquidation. Frequently switching between cryptocurrencies, making small gains while incurring large losses, and eventually realizing that you are just a tool.

Want to survive in this market? Remember three survival rules:

Stay away from the crazy gambling of contracts.
Don't touch those incomprehensible altcoins.
Short-term trading can be done with small amounts for fun, but don't take it seriously.

In plain terms, cryptocurrency trading is a battle against human nature. The fewer trades you make, the longer you survive. Even if a bull market really comes, you need to maintain your mindset and not buy everything you see. If you haven't thought about holding for three to five years, then don't touch it for even three to five minutes.

What is the biggest problem for retail investors? Confusion.

Seeing others make money makes you envious and you rush in, relying entirely on feelings for buying and selling opportunities. Hesitant when prices are low, and overly excited when prices are high. If you're lucky, you might get a share; if you're unlucky, you directly become someone else's ATM.

There is an old saying that goes: wealth does not enter through urgent doors.

For ordinary people, there is only one reliable way - holding spot coins. Don't fantasize about achieving financial freedom through frequent trading; that's just working for the exchange. What you really need to learn is what to hold, when to hold, and how to control yourself from selling randomly.

Losing is just bad luck, while making a profit is about seizing the right opportunity.

But how to walk the road, how to keep the heart steady, this must be understood by oneself.

This is the real way to play in this market, no objections accepted.

The part about 100x leverage is too real; I've seen too many people get wiped out overnight; it's truly a gambler's mentality. --- I've had the addiction to short-term trading; I'm still in recovery, and it's all tears when I talk about it. --- Holding coins in the spot market is the most boring yet stable path; it just depends on who can endure the loneliness. --- Hesitating at low points and rushing at high points; isn't that just me? I always manage to hit the peak. --- Wealth doesn't come through urgent means; this saying is timeless, yet no one listens. --- I'm completely scared of leverage now; once is enough. --- Seeing others make money makes me envious, and I rush in, only to become the exchange's ATM; I've gone through this cycle twice. --- Win a hundred times, lose once, and it's all gone; this is the true fragrance law of the crypto world, right?

Laughing while losing this trade, I am just that tool who doesn't understand alts and keeps investing in them.

You're not wrong, but I still see a bunch of people playing with 100x leverage and getting liquidated every day, and they just won't listen.

I've heard too many such words, but the question is, how many can actually do it? Those around me who got 100 times Get Liquidated said they were very calm beforehand. --- Hoarding coins without action is right, but the reality is that most people can't stand the fall; as soon as it drops 10%, they start doubting life. --- That's true, but no one can really execute it; that's the tragedy of the crypto world. --- Short-term Get Liquidated is indeed common, but if swing trading is done well, you can still eat a bit more soup; it all depends on how well you manage risk. --- Come on, it's the same theory again, but why are there still people making stable profits through short-term trading? It's a lack of execution power, right? --- Holding Spot coins is the most reassuring; you don't have to stare at the market every day, but you still need to pick the right coins; holding bad coins for too long will still incur losses.

You’re not wrong; I only realized after being swallowed by 100x leverage. Looking back at my past self, I was really both inexperienced and greedy. Holding coins is much more solid than frequently switching, but the difficulty lies in this word "stability," especially when a bull run comes, and you see others getting rich. What retail investors fear the most is their mindset; technical skills are secondary. Hearing about someone dropping to zero happens a lot, and there are people around me who have been liquidated; that psychological shadow truly lasts a long time. Rather than getting tangled in when to buy or sell, it’s better to first ask yourself how much you can afford to lose and still sleep peacefully.

Those people using 100x leverage are really just digging their own graves; I've seen too many accounts wiped out overnight. Hoarding coins is indeed the most sustainable way to live; frequent trading just means giving money to the exchange. You're right, what retail investors fear the most is seeing others make money and getting envious, and in the end, they become someone else's ATM. The mindset part is the hardest; Technical Analysis is all just empty talk. Holding Spot while sleeping is comfortable, but contracts keep you on edge every day.
