Have you ever felt that the market stands on the opposite side, with a mocking gaze, seemingly laughing at every decision you make? (In fact, the market is not intentionally doing this; rather, your certain action has quietly laid the groundwork.)

In those late nights, have you ever stared at the flickering screen, curious about how the market penetrates your thoughts, making you sigh at every turning point? If such thoughts entangle you, then welcome to this mysterious realm where self-exploration dances with the market.

Behind this lies some unknown secrets.

The market sometimes flows like a gentle current, allowing you to easily hop on the train of profits; at other times, it quietly presses the script you had in mind when you hesitate. There are also heartbreaking moments when each of your trading decisions seems to become a source of future regret. We are determined to unveil the veil of these moments through a series of carefully planned posts, allowing your soul to resonate with them, thereby gaining a deeper understanding of the twists and beauty of the trading journey.

Let’s start with a picture: the market seems to have entered a downward channel, and you bravely step into the wave of short-term trading, believing you can capture that fleeting landscape of decline...

Imagine a trader who, with a mere $100 margin, leverages 50 times, confidently betting on the market's crash. On the chart, the outlines of three peaks are clearly visible, and each candle seems to tell the story of decline. However, after resolutely shorting, the market's direction diverges vastly from his expectations and even ruthlessly touches his liquidation threshold. At that moment, regret floods in like a tide, and he can only choose to escape, leaving everything to dreams. Days later, when he gathers the courage to examine the altcoin that once pained him, the scene before him leaves him astonished—his prediction not only did not come true, but the depth of the market's decline far exceeded his imagination.

So, what can this trader learn from this experience to become more resilient next time?

Jin Xin believes that creating a personal list of 'do's' and 'don'ts' is the first line of defense against the storms of the market. We will showcase through examples the wiser actions he could have taken. Every fluctuation in the market has its inherent logic and rules; the hesitation of altcoins at resistance levels is precisely the game of market forces. Patiently waiting and observing each price pullback and test is the necessary path to success. Know that blindly entering the market may occasionally yield lucky victories, but in the long run, it is akin to gambling. Those traders with extraordinary patience know how to find tranquility amidst the noise, closing their charts and letting time become their best friend.

These posts are not just a transmission of knowledge, but also a solace for the soul. They illuminate a beacon for those struggling in the cryptocurrency market, for newcomers venturing into this unknown sea, and for anyone yearning to grow.

Stay rational and proceed with caution. In this dialogue with the market, may we all become better versions of ourselves.
