The greatest test in trading is not the desire to make quick money, but whether profits can be continuously accumulated. Recently, I have been revisiting some classic trading theories, and one perspective I particularly agree with is: instead of frequent trading, let the profits roll themselves, which often leads to unexpected gains.



My trading approach is as follows: whether trading mainstream coins or altcoins, each order must be precisely timed, rather than blindly chasing highs or passively stop-lossing. The key is to set clear take-profit targets, and once achieved, let it operate automatically without interference.

During this three-month cycle, I plan to systematically verify this logic. I will allocate both mainstream coins and altcoins, but the core principle remains the same: select the right timing, stick to take-profit, and avoid over-trading. Many losses are not due to choosing the wrong coins, but because of repeatedly adjusting in the right direction, ultimately being shaken out.

If you are also exploring a more stable trading rhythm, consider trying this approach: build your own trading framework, set clear entry and exit rules for each trade, and then execute them with discipline. Time will prove that such persistence yields much higher returns than frequent trading.

Sounds good, but the key is whether I can stick with it. I definitely can't do it anyway. It sounds nice, but in the end, you're still hammered by the market fluctuations. Once you've set your take-profit, you should let it go. Haha, this is a tough problem. I approve of the mainstream coin allocation; the altcoin pit is too deep. Let's see the results in three months, and we can talk then. Haha

It's easy to talk about taking profits, but how many can really do it? --- Talking about setting take-profit points is easy, but when it comes down to it, the mentality often collapses haha --- I just want to know if you can really hold off for these three months without making a move, haha --- Precise timing... I've heard that phrase too many times --- The hardest part is sticking to disciplined execution, isn't it? --- Repeated adjustments get washed out, that’s the point where many get caught --- No matter how perfect the framework, when the market goes crazy, doesn’t everything just collapse? --- It looks rational, but the pressure during actual trading can drive people crazy --- I've really never seen anyone stick to taking profits on altcoins --- I tried that approach last year too, but in the end, I got slapped in the face --- Rolling profits sounds like a dream, but reality often goes the opposite way --- Those who can resist the urge for frequent trading are truly a minority

Really speaking, frequent operations are just paying market transaction fees. Data shows that the Sharpe ratio of high-frequency trading accounts is generally negative... Bear thinks that your logic is basically adding discipline on top of compound interest. Let's wait and see if the backtest data after three months will prove you wrong.

...so basically you're describing what baudrillard called the "simulacrum of restraint" in markets? the irony being that your "discipline" is itself just another narrative construct we tell ourselves to feel in control... ngl though, the tokenomics of patience do hit different when you actually commit to the framework

That's right, the key is to hold back. Sticking to take-profit is really harder than anything else; I tend to be impulsive. Will this methodology show results in three months? I need to follow up and see. Frequent trading is truly the mother of losses; every time I think I can turn it around. Having a solid framework is important, but the real challenge is disciplined execution. The experience of being washed out is deeply unforgettable; lessons learned. But to be honest, precise timing is easier to talk about than to actually do.

That's right, taking profits is really the Achilles' heel for most people. Timing accurately sounds easy, but actually doing it is difficult. I still tend to be greedy. A three-month verification cycle, witnessing it together with you. Frequent trading is just a constant struggle against oneself, ultimately being harvested by the market. I agree with the concepts of framework and discipline; now it depends on how long I can stick to them.
