To profit in the crypto world, the key is to establish your own complete trading system. Whether you're trading spot, futures, or the recently popular meme coins, the approach is the same—never rely solely on what KOLs say, and don't expect automatic copy trading to guarantee profits. If you don't understand the trends and narratives and just follow the crowd, losing money is actually inevitable.

The market doesn't have invincible winners, but win rates can be improved through practice. The crucial difference lies in cognition. When you develop your own trading logic, can identify which signals are worth watching, and which risks to avoid, your win rate will naturally increase. Conversely, relying purely on luck and others' advice? That's gambling, and losing money is only a matter of time. Those who truly survive in the crypto space are those willing to refine their trading systems.

99% of the copy traders have already failed in 2024, and those still relying on others to lead the way are probably losing again now.

Following the trend is just for newbies, that's true, but the problem is that most people have no patience to develop a system and are only thinking about getting rich overnight.

It's the same story again... I've heard it a thousand times, but there's really nothing wrong with it.

Can copy trading guarantee profits? Dream on, it's just gambling. That's right, building your own system is the way to go, or you'll be cut off sooner or later.

Listen, this is the whole truth about the crypto world, no one can tell you more straightforwardly. Copy trading? Dream on, that's just another way of saying you're giving your money to others. Exactly right, win rates can indeed be improved, but the premise is that you have to stay alive first, haha. It's the same old story, building a system, doing your own research... but very few people actually have the patience to do it. Looking at this article, it seems like brainwashing gamblers, still that same bla bla... Cognition gap, those two words sound light, but you only realize how painful it is after experiencing it.

honestly the whole "build your system" thing sounds nice until you realize you're still gonna eat shit on gas fees regardless lol... had my perfect trading logic completely obliterated by a random network congestion spike, watched my optimized exit turn into a $400 failed tx. so much for that edge

That's right. Where are those copy traders now? Still getting wiped out completely. Listening to more KOL nonsense is pointless; you have to figure it out yourself, or you'll just deserve to lose. Winning rate can really be improved, but the key is to be ruthless in reviewing your trades. You're not a gambler, so why listen to others' reckless advice? Your own trading system is the hard truth; without it, you're just throwing money away.

That's true, but the problem is that most people are not willing to spend time honing their skills, only thinking about shortcuts to get rich overnight...
