Sounds nice, but the ones who really make money are quietly getting rich themselves. Who would really teach you?
After following value investors for a long time, it turns out they have already dumped their shares... living textbooks? More often it's a living lesson.
Just listen and don't take others' methods as gospel; the market changes so quickly.

nah, this is just survivorship bias wrapped in motivational language. the ones actually printing money aren't copying everyone's playbook—they're exploiting the gaps where everyone *else* is wrong.

That's right, but I've found that most people are just following the trend, and very few can actually extract anything useful from these "textbooks."

Good morning, it's three o'clock in the morning. The saying "learn from the strengths of others" sounds nice, but it's actually just watching in the dark pool to see who gets played for suckers the worst. When value investors buy the dip, it's often when retail investors catch a falling knife. Fear of risk? Ha, that's something learned only after losing more than three times.

What you're saying makes sense, but how many people actually stick to it... Most still engage in momentum investing.

Learning from others? Sounds nice, but what I've mostly seen are people following the trend and catching falling knives.
The knowledge of buying the dip is indeed significant, but more importantly, you must clearly identify where the threshold trigger point is; don't find yourself being directly liquidated while still researching "living textbooks."

I've studied the methods of short positions, which is — don't leverage too high. Simple and straightforward, but effective.
---
Respecting risk? It's easy to say, but when the market fluctuates by 3.27%, how many people can hold on?
---
I admit that hedge funds dissect market data, but the problem is you don't have their risk control mechanisms and lending position management capabilities.
---
There are living textbooks everywhere, but making it out alive is what counts as making a profit.
---
Don't bother learning about liquidation risk; just look at the on-chain data: once the collateral rate falls below 1.5, you should run, don't think about a rebound.
---
This theory sounds good, but when the leverage exceeds 3 times in practice, you can forget about "learning from others" and just pray not to get liquidated.

That's right, what I'm afraid of is that some people are full of themselves, only thinking about getting rich overnight, without even wanting to lay the basic groundwork.

nah real talk tho... mempool patterns teach u more about market structure than any "value investor" ever could. everyone's obsessed with copying strategies but nobody talks about fee optimization during volatility spikes. that's where the actual edge lives.

You are right, but the problem is that most people cannot tell who is really making money and who is just talking big.
They learned a lot about buying the dip, yet still got smashed to the bottom.
The real lesson is the class on losing money.

That's true, but the problem is that most people simply can't learn, and they're still losing money themselves.
Trend-following investors also suffer heavy losses at times; the key is to have your own judgment.
Using others' experiences without understanding is what it means to be played for suckers.
Those who can really make money never share; those who share just want to play you for suckers.
