Trading cryptocurrencies isn't that complicated; in summary, it's just one word—patience.
When there's no clear market trend, I never rush anyone to enter the market. Sitting on the sidelines for a week or two, what's the rush at this moment? Look at Bitcoin this week, leading the mainstream coins, that's the real upward window. Deploy the funds you've been holding back earlier, and you'll see gains once you enter.
But the biggest problem for most people is—if there's still balance in their wallet, they can't help but look for opportunities to trade every day. The result? Mostly losing more than they gain. When a clear trending market finally emerges and the direction becomes obvious, they want to enter but find that they've already exhausted their principal from shooting in all directions earlier.
Do you feel this way? Actually, most traders I know are like this. The crypto market, to put it plainly, is a test of human nature. You can't be driven by emotions. If you lose today, so be it—let it go. Don't think about making it all back in one trade—doing so will only make the hole bigger. The traders who last the longest are those who can control their patience and manage risk.
When an opportunity arises, strike then. A single good trade can make up for several losses before. Right now is only the beginning of the year, and countless waves and phases are still ahead. If you don't want to keep wasting in this market, or if you want to turn the situation around and get through it smoothly—here's the method.

That's right, you just have to be patient. I used to be the same way—whenever I had a balance in my wallet, I just had to make a move. But looking back now, I really took a huge loss. Now I've learned to be smarter: if there's no certainty, I stay on the sidelines and watch. Anyway, waiting won't hurt.

This wave really hits the point, but do you know how many can actually do it? I've told the people around me for a long time that the art of waiting is a thousand times harder than the courage to chase.

That's right, you just have to be patient. I used to be impulsive—spending money and trading whenever I had it, but I barely made any profit after a year. Now I've learned to be smarter; if there's no opportunity, I'd rather stay on the sidelines than rush into getting burned.

You're right, I just can't resist the urge, trading every day and losing every day. Only now do I realize that this is the real enemy.

That's right, but the concern is having money and nothing to do, constantly making reckless moves every day.

That's right, you just have to hold back and not be reckless. I had the same problem two months ago, trading every day, and ended up losing money really fast.

That's right, but you just have to wait. I used to be reckless and trade every day, resulting in a net loss after a month. Now that I've learned to stay out of the market, I feel much more comfortable.
