In the field of Crypto Assets trading, many participants have long explored yet failed to grasp a key truth: the core of successful trading lies not in mastering technical indicators, but in the ability to accurately understand market sentiment.



The price trend chart is actually an intuitive reflection of the fluctuations in market sentiment, with each rise and fall resulting from the flow of funds and the psychological game of investors. The seemingly enticing rapid rise and slow fall often indicate that large funds are reshuffling the market—stimulating investment enthusiasm through a brief surge, then slowly depleting investors' patience with a gradual decline, ultimately eliminating the confidence-lacking retail investors. Moreover, the slow recovery after a significant market decline resembles a gentle trap, aimed at attracting the last batch of investors clinging to their illusions.

To accurately interpret the market, the key is not to focus on price fluctuations but to analyze changes in trading volume. Trading volume is like a thermometer for the market; only when the volume is active can it reflect the true market direction. Conversely, a shrinking trading volume during a fluctuating market often indicates that funds are hesitating in place. A price increase without volume is like a castle in the air, seemingly lively but hiding risks; while a volume increase at the bottom should not be blindly optimistic, as it is necessary to observe whether the volume can continue to grow, otherwise it may just be a fleeting moment.

Once, I was also a trader who chased after price increases and sold at dips, rushing in when prices rose and buying at the bottom when there was a pullback, which resulted in my funds continuously shrinking. It wasn't until I learned to closely monitor trading volume and market rhythm that I truly grasped the essentials of trading, transforming from a passive buyer to a rational market observer.

The essence of trading lies not in flaunting complex indicators or miraculous operational skills, but in mastering the art of self-restraint: staying calm when one should observe, knowing when to stop when making a profit, decisively taking action when faced with clear opportunities, and firmly maintaining a wait-and-see approach in the face of ambiguous market conditions.

Being able to act without being influenced by emotions, without being attached to a certain viewpoint, and without acting impulsively is the highest realm of trading. It is worth noting that in the Crypto Assets market, it is difficult to succeed alone. Just as sailing requires a lighthouse for guidance, having a reliable team and community support on the trading path makes it easier to navigate through the market's fog than to explore alone.

In this market full of challenges and opportunities, continuous learning, maintaining rationality, and discussing with like-minded people are the keys to navigating market cycles and achieving long-term success.

There are no perpetual victors in the market, only those who know themselves clearly.

Both bulls and bears are suckers; only the market maker can laugh to the end.

Don't be rational, even if I give you a complete trap K-line system, you will still lose.
