There has been a lot of recent discussion about the strategic value of digital assets. Observing the trends from last year to this year, we often scrutinize the true costs for those large funds. Who is deploying capital in 2024, and what proportion are they using to buy the dips? These questions are increasingly worth retrospective analysis.

Honestly, the window for gold accumulation has already been missed. Whether institutional investors or major players, their chip arrangements have long been decided. As ordinary investors, instead of guessing their next move, it’s better to focus more on risk management — that is truly where victory or defeat is decided.

Why? Because retail investors simply cannot change the market’s supply and demand structure. This is not pessimism, but reality. Price movements are determined by the inflows and outflows of large funds. All we can do is follow the rhythm and hop on this train. Knowing your position and maintaining a risk bottom line is much more practical than blindly predicting.

If you miss the window, then you miss it. Anyway, the big players have already gotten on board. As retail investors, just honestly set your stop-loss and don't waste your brain trying to figure out when they will sell off—that's all just a waste of effort.

I've already said not to guess blindly. Whatever the institutions do, we follow suit. Copying homework is the way to go.

Come on, retail investors are just here to eat leftovers. Don't talk about those grand narratives. Recognizing your position is the key to lasting longer.

Listen, instead of constantly analyzing institutional costs every day, it's better to set your own stop-loss first. That's basically what it comes down to. Missing the window is gone, so what are you still hesitating for? Recognizing your own amateur status is the first step. Institutions have already completed their布局 early, and now we are just riding along. If we follow well, we eat meat; if not, we cut losses. Nothing else. It's called risk management in a nice way, but frankly, it's just about not losing everything. This is the truth for retail investors to survive. No matter how the price moves, they call the shots. What we do is just guess the right direction and then withdraw in time. Nothing too complicated.

Alright, you're right. Risk control is always the top priority. But I still think that people entering the market now are too greedy, always trying to buy at the bottom, but often getting hammered to the floor.

Risk management is correct, but I think it's still important to consider your own position planning... Tracking large funds' movements is really not that simple. I've heard a lot of retail investor resignation theories, but this time you really need to manage your stop-loss well. To put it simply, don't be greedy, just follow the right people.
