#数字资产动态追踪 Want to make steady money in the crypto world? It's not that mysterious. I’ve noticed that all successful traders around me share a common trait — they take profits when they should, cut losses when they need to, and never waver.
$BTC, $ETH, $XRP these mainstream coins can rise and fall quickly. The most testing time is when you hold a position; many people break down here — they see profits but are reluctant to sell, only to get hit back. When losing, they dare not cut, holding on until liquidation.
The ones who can achieve a 70%-80% win rate are never relying on luck or some mysterious method — it all comes down to two words: execution. Set clear rules, decide your take-profit and stop-loss points before entering, and act when the time comes. Don’t negotiate with yourself.
Compared to chasing the perfect entry, this discipline is worth more than anything.

That's right, but the mental barrier is too hard to overcome. I'm the kind of person who hesitates to sell when holding coins, only to be proven wrong countless times.

That's so true, it's all about execution. I used to be the type to stubbornly hold on, and now I think back, it's really silly.
Execution is easy to talk about but hard to do; the psychological barrier is the toughest.
Take profit and stop loss points need to be written down in a small notebook, otherwise you'll really end up bargaining with yourself.
By the way, what percentage do you usually set for your stop loss? I always feel that setting it too tight makes it easy to get swept out.
It's really just greed—wanting to hold on a bit longer when prices are rising, not wanting to admit defeat when prices are falling, and in the end, losing everything.

Exactly right, the hardest part is execution. I've seen too many people create perfect plans, but when it comes to real action, they back down. Greed or fear completely ruin everything.

That's right, the execution barrier is what stops a lot of people. I'm no exception myself—knowing I should cut losses but always finding reasons to delay, and in the end I lost even more.

That's right, the hardest part is execution. I've previously lost out because I couldn't let go of taking profits, watching my profits evaporate helplessly.

Taking profits and cutting losses is something I've said a thousand times, but few actually do it, including myself.
---
Discipline sounds simple, but when faced with the market, most people throw it out the window. Human nature is too greedy.
---
70%-80% win rate? I think most people can't even reach 30% because they simply can't follow their own plans.
---
Being soft-hearted is really deadly in the crypto world. Small losses not cut can turn into big losses in the end.
---
Setting rules is easy, but when the time comes, people still find excuses not to cut losses. That's why most people lose money.

I agree, but many people know this theory. Why are so many still losing money? Because they just can't do it.

Damn, you're so right. I'm the kind of idiot who should have cut my losses but stubbornly held on until liquidation. I only understand now.

You are absolutely right; execution is the most difficult part. I used to be the kind of person who couldn't bear to sell when there was profit, only to get hammered back and suffer even greater losses. Now I realize that discipline is truly more important than anything else.

That's right, it's a mindset issue. I used to be reluctant to take profits, and as a result, I was knocked back twice before I understood.
When it comes to execution, many people fail because of the words "just a little longer."

That's right, the hardest part is execution. I used to have the same problem—seeing BTC rise, I couldn't bear to reduce my position, and as a result, I got stuck so badly.
