#数字资产动态追踪 Here are some of my insights on opening positions.

I used to be the type of trader who stared at the screen nonstop. Sitting in front of the four-hour chart, eyes glued, hardly blinking, afraid to miss any potential profit signals. But reality was harsh—frequent trades led to regular stop-losses, and my account was shrinking rapidly. It wasn't until I set strict rules for myself: "Never trade during these specific periods," that my trading career started to turn around.

The "forbidden trading periods" I refer to are three. The first is the 9:30-10:00 a.m. morning session, when emotions from the previous day are released, and the main players try to shake the market—often unpredictable. I used to trade during this time, with a win rate below 35%, yet it accounted for 60% of my total losses. The noon 1:00-2:00 p.m. lull is dead quiet, with prices creeping up or down without clear direction. I often impulsively place trades out of boredom. The last risky period is 2:30-3:00 p.m., when the big players' small moves often set traps for the next day. Chasing these can lead to a "one-day trade" lesson waiting to happen.

Trading during these periods costs more than just losses; paying transaction fees repeatedly can wipe out your profits. Worse, when a real good opportunity arises, you either have no bullets left or are mentally exhausted from constant trading. Later, I changed my approach: I only trade during three confirmed windows—after 10:00 a.m., when the market's strength is clear; at 11:00 a.m., when the main players make a second move; and after 2:00 p.m., to prepare for the next day.

With this new approach, my trading frequency was cut in half, my win rate jumped from 42% to 63%, and my drawdowns became more manageable. I realized that the real skill in trading isn't about frequent entries, but about resisting boredom and avoiding impulsive moves. Giving up small opportunities allows you to seize big ones that can change the game. Ultimately, less is more—that's the key to winning in trading. $BTC
