Watching some people chase hot topics and swing trade every day really makes me feel a bit helpless. The risks of short-term trading are so high, and the costs are so steep—why can't they just break this bad habit?



Instead of constantly staring at candlestick charts, it's better to find one or two trustworthy projects and calmly build positions. The market isn't short of opportunities; what’s lacking is that kind of resolve. A good coin’s fundamentals, team, and ecosystem development—these are the real factors that determine long-term gains.

You see some people holding good assets, yet they end up messing everything up with swing trading. Frequent trading and switching often eat up more than half of the profits in fees, leaving them exhausted. It’s better to choose a few reliable directions and give them time to grow.

The market needs participants to settle down and steadily improve the ecosystem, rather than chasing every rise and fall every day. True gains often come from those who can stick to their principles.

You're right, but how do you persuade those who don't have good coins? That's the core issue. Really, those who keep dumping every day are probably unable to find convincing targets and just start to act recklessly. Discipline is easy to talk about, but try to withstand a 50% drop in your account and see if you can stay calm. Good projects are hard to find; most people are actually gambling rather than investing. Frequent trading is indeed stupid, but some people manage to turn things around with swing trading. There's no absolute answer. Hidden fees are eating into profits, and that's so true. Many people haven't even calculated how much they pay in fees annually. The real dilemma is whether to stay in cash waiting for opportunities or get trapped for two years—this is the true hardship.

Honestly, people who look at K-line charts every day are just fighting themselves, losing money on fees. A good project is about holding on to it, it's that simple. Frequent trading always leads to losses—that's the rule. Instead of chasing highs and selling lows, it's better to research the team and ecosystem development—that's the real key. Swing traders ultimately become fee withdrawal machines.

To be honest, I am the kind of person who gets repeatedly squeezed by transaction fees. Only now do I understand what "frequent trading is an accelerator of poverty." Willpower is truly a luxury, especially when watching others double their investments in a short period... but in the end, I realized I didn't even have my principal anymore.

Wait a minute, I tracked the fund flow of those accounts that swing daily, and it's interesting... According to on-chain data, wallets that frequently switch often show buy and sell signals at specific times, which clearly indicates a pattern. It’s obvious that the fee black hole is slowly devouring their principal, and I had already guessed this would happen. Truly smart people have long locked in on the target project, holding it with peace of mind, waiting for time to prove everything.

That's right, fees are really the hidden killer. You might make a bold move, but in the end, all the gains are eaten up.

That's right, trading in waves is really the fastest way to cut leeks, and the transaction fees are enough to drink a whole pot.

That's true, but I'm just an impatient person. When I see it rising, I want to buy the dip; when I see it falling, I want to sell the top. I can't change that. The fees I've paid really could have lasted me several months for food. It hurts so much.

Honestly, I'm already tired of it. Those people who trade daily end up losing a lot in fees. Discipline is truly rare; I've only seen people ruin good coins by themselves. Sticking to your principles is the way to go; everything else is nonsense. Mindset determines everything. Don't make it so complicated. Frequent trading is just cutting your own leeks. Wake up, everyone.
