At the age of 31 to 39, I dedicated my most passionate 8 years to the turbulent world of cryptocurrency.
Last year marked a turning point in my life—my account balance first exceeded eight digits.
Now, when going out, I choose five-star hotels, paying thousands for a good view or experience without needing to convert the room rate into cryptocurrency prices. The NFT pendant hanging from my suitcase and the 'To the Moon' earrings I wear have become secret signals, allowing me to exchange smiles with 'like-minded' individuals in any corner of the world.
I am often asked if I have any secrets. In fact, mindset shapes the outcome; technology merely outlines the process. Some 'principles of the heart' that can only be understood after tears and laughter, I share with my friends in the crypto space: BTC is always the 'big brother' in the crypto world. If you want to mix in this circle, you need to keep an eye on it. When it rises, altcoins have a chance; when it falls, all the little brothers have to follow suit.
Occasionally, ETH may have an independent market trend, but don’t expect altcoins to resist the overall market.
$BTC and USDT+ are like a seesaw. Remember: when USDT rises, Bitcoin needs to be watched carefully; if Bitcoin rises too sharply, stock up on USDT for safety.
Pay attention to two key time periods:
From 0-1 AM, it’s easy to have 'wick spikes'; placing an order before sleep might allow you to snag a bargain;
From 6-8 AM, it serves as a barometer for the day’s trend.
If it falls in the first half of the night, and these two hours continue to fall, just close your eyes and add to your position; there’s a high probability of a rise that day; if it rises in the first half of the night and these two hours continue to rise, then run quickly as it will likely fall that day.
Don’t lose focus at 5 PM either. Due to time zone differences, US funds just entering the market can lead to significant fluctuations.
'Black Friday'? Don’t be too superstitious. Fridays have seen falls, rises, and sideways movements; it ultimately comes down to the news.
The most practical advice: as long as it’s not a worthless coin and has trading volume, don’t panic when it falls. In three to five days, or a month, it will likely bounce back.
If you have spare cash, buy in batches to lower costs and break even quickly; if not, just hold on, and it should be fine.
The trade I’m most proud of is the Dogecoin I bought at 0.085, and I’ve held onto it until now, multiplying over 20 times.
The fact is, in the end, trading cryptocurrencies is all about patience. A single tree cannot make a forest; it’s better to move along with the larger group. The direction has been pointed out; it’s up to you to keep up with the rhythm now!
