The pitfalls you've stepped into in the crypto market are often these:



First and foremost—the all-in operation and arbitrarily adding leverage. These are the direct and quick paths to liquidation, leaving no room for negotiation. Then there's the issue of mindset. Following others to make money, or impulsively trading when seeing price movements—these habits eat up half of your profits in fees.

Vague stop-loss settings, no plan for adding positions, and blindly increasing positions based on feelings—these are common "big pits." Also, obsessively sticking to a single technical indicator, while the market changes rapidly; a single indicator can't withstand the volatility.

The most heartbreaking part is knowing these principles but still failing to act accordingly. Greed often causes us to stay in when we should exit, or hope for a rebound when we should cut losses. Instead of repeatedly falling into these traps, it's better to establish clear trading discipline from the start—that's the real secret to long-term survival.

I've already gone through everything my buddy mentioned, especially that full position trade, which was basically paying tuition. Now I have one rule: keep some gas fee money untouched, only then do I dare to operate.

You're right... but when it comes to taking action, FOMO still takes over. Who hasn't had the experience of going all-in and following the trend?

Using full leverage on a full position is truly a suicidal move; I've seen too many people go all-in and end up zeroed out instantly.

Full leverage trading really can't be played; I've seen too many people go back to square one overnight. Ultimately, your mindset is the biggest enemy.

Full leverage positions are really the standard for cutting leeks, to put it plainly, it's like committing suicide. Knowing these principles but just can't change, that's the hardest part. Frequent trading really makes the fees add up quickly, no wonder you've been losing money all along. Having a plan for stop-loss is useless if you just get soft when executing it. Wait, are you saying I should set a good stop-loss and then stop watching the market? But I just can't help it. What can one indicator decide? The market is so complex. That greed really hits the heart, every time dreaming of a rebound.
