Why do others trade as easily as breathing?

Some people tap their screens a few times, and their account balances jump by more than your entire year's salary. The square is full of stories of "divine trades": making a car in three minutes, riding a trend for half a year. Staring at the screen, you start to envy, thinking these people must be chosen by heaven.

But there are many things you can't see. You can't see their hands trembling during a margin call. You can't see the dark circles from late-night review sessions. You can't see how frustrated they are after missing out. And you definitely can't see the simple trading truths they bought with real money.

In the crypto world, the gap isn't about luck.

Newbies are gambling; professional traders are solving problems. You're still searching for the "Holy Grail" in candlestick charts, while they are already executing logic at elementary school math level.

First, if you don't understand, don't act. The market loves to cut off those who "feel they must do something." Making money isn't about the number of trades, but the quality of your trades. It's better to trade only three times a month than to mess around ten times a day.

Second, rushing into a position before the pattern is complete? Those two consecutive rising bullish candles might be bait, and a sudden large bearish candle is a trap. The more eager you are to catch the bottom or top, the happier the big players are. The grass on the grave is already three meters high—have you learned this lesson yet?

Next, look at trend selection. The core of professional traders is: if the trend is up, don't open short positions; if the trend is down, don't try to catch the bottom. Those who fantasize about perfectly timing the market usually end up kneeling. Sounds boring? That's exactly right. The real way to make money is often when you feel the most bored.

Finally, most of the time you're waiting, not rushing. The opportunities to change your fate in the crypto world come only two or three times a year. The rest of the time is just fake excitement, luring you to jump in. Those "divine trades" that once kept you awake are actually muscle memory after analyzing the same patterns thousands of times—they're not talent, but tuition.

Don't ask yourself, "Am I not suited for the crypto world?" Instead, ask, "Where exactly is my trading system lacking?"

Remember this logic: the market always rewards those who understand the rhythm and punishes reckless gamblers.

Starting today, change "Can I keep up with this wave?" to "Does this wave fit my rules?" Change "I've been caught again" to "Stop-loss executed, preparing for the next trade."

When you replace emotion with rules, wait instead of panic, and review instead of complain, you'll find that the once insomnia-inducing "divine trades" gradually become routine operations in your trading records. The market is always there, but your capital and real opportunities may only come a few times.
