The market has warmed up again in the past couple of days, and many traders have also caught a wave of profits.

Let's see what those successful investors are doing—it's nothing more than trying to learn something from them—after all, why can they consistently make profits while we keep fluctuating between losses and recovery?

Thinking carefully, it's clear: a while ago, we were losing money in a daze, but once the market turned, we could make money very quickly. The underlying logic is actually just one thing—contract trading is ultimately a game of probability. With enough chips, there's a chance to turn things around, but the risks are real too.

To put it simply, the crypto market is unpredictable, and those with bullets are indeed more likely to buy the dip and turn things around at critical moments. But the prerequisite is to survive long enough and keep a steady mindset; otherwise, one misstep could mean being out.

Uh... it's that same argument of "having bullets can turn things around" again, and I'm getting calluses on my ears from hearing it. Some people did profit from this round of rebound, but most are still just sipping soup or haven't even gotten on the train. The saying that contracts are a game of probability is not wrong, but the problem is that most people don't really understand what their risk tolerance is. Living long, maintaining a steady mindset... it sounds simple, but I’m afraid less than one percent can actually achieve it.

Here comes that same old argument that you can only win if you're rich, as if we should just admit defeat because we have no bullets. I just want to know, are those guys who consistently make profits truly probability winners or just lucky enough to catch the trend? Honestly, the phrase "living long" really hit me. I've been cut multiple times and I'm still alive... This recent rebound reminded me of the last time I also took a hit, and then I sold everything in a single跌停. Wait, do we really have to smash the jar and break the bowl to learn to stabilize our mindset? Sounds like chicken soup. People who are foolish and have lots of money do find it easier to turn things around, I have nothing to say about that.

Here we go again, hearing this set of excuses until your ears are calloused... Basically, it all comes down to having money to survive. Having money without brains is pointless; mindset is even more difficult than chips. Want to achieve stable profits? Learn to cut losses first. This wave of market is indeed sweet, but looking back, it still feels exhausting. Living longer doesn't necessarily mean earning more; the key is not to be greedy.

Starting to talk about probability games again, it sounds nice, but it's really just relying on luck and capital to gamble. Living longer is the real goal. Many people around me got wiped out in a single market surge.

Here we go again, I think this is pure luck. Who the hell can predict market turns? If you don't have bullets, you'll be cut early. Now you're still here talking about a stable mindset. Contracts are just a game of probability and gambling. Honestly, the ones with more funds win. People who made money yesterday can still lose tomorrow. Don't mistake luck for skill. Living long isn't because of a stable mindset; it's because your principal is enough to withstand the grind.
