When the bull market arrives, there are always two types of people.

One focuses on burying their head in the sand, quietly accumulating. They buy when it's right, hold when it's right, and are not swayed by external noise. When the true wealth effect manifests, looking back, they've already earned a fortune.

The other type? They shout everywhere, frequently adjust their positions, chase gains and sell at dips. In the end, they often don't make much profit from their coins, but instead pay a lot in transaction fees. When the bull market passes, all that's left are voices of regret.

What's the key? Persistence.

It's not about insisting that a certain coin must increase a thousandfold, but about sticking to a strategy of your own—after choosing the right direction, you need patience to wait. Market fluctuations are normal, but those who truly profit are often the ones who can stay calm amid volatility.

Next time the opportunity comes, who do you want to be? You should think about it now.

That's right, but I'm just worried that I'm the one frequently adjusting my positions. FOMO every day, paying more in fees than I make, ugh. Actually, it's just about learning to keep quiet. People who make money never post on social media. What's the point of persistence? I just can't control my hand, sigh. In one sentence, hold on and that's it. Don't make it so complicated. I've heard this a hundred times, but the key is that only a few can actually do it.

That's right, the fee killer is exactly how it was eliminated. Chasing gains and selling losses is really extreme; I've lost everything. Sticking to the strategy really hits home; I'm the type whose mentality is affected by volatility. Wait, is the thousandfold number a bit too dreamy? Actually, it still depends on whether you can withstand the pullback; most people can't. Those who truly make money keep a low profile and get rich quietly; no one really knows how much they earned. My current problem is that I know I should stick to it, but I just can't. Getting addicted to rebalancing, wanting to tinker with it every day. Staying calm is easier said than done, especially when seeing the decline. It's really a mentality issue; no matter how good your skills are, it's useless. Next time, I must hold back, or I'll really be stuck in the same place. This article really hit me; it feels like it's talking about me.

Well said, but manual traders really tend to give all the transaction fees to the exchange.

No problem with what you said, but it's a flaw that lazy hands can never fix.

To be honest, most people just say they will stick to it, but when their hands itch, they start making reckless moves. I'm a different kind of person—constantly changing the agreed-upon strategy every day, and getting anxious when others are making money. Actually, persistence is easy to talk about but hard to do, but it is indeed the truth. This article is a bit motivational, but it hits the point. Clearly knowing what to do, but still unable to keep a steady mindset at critical moments. Wait, the real question is, how many people can truly stick to it? I think the key is to find the rhythm that truly suits you. It's the same old advice, but unfortunately, most people forget it after hearing it.
