Want to catch a real breakout market? Actually, mastering three core dimensions is enough—but many people stumble right on these three points.



First, let's talk about judging the overall environment. Market cycles determine how efficiently you can make money. In a bull market, you can make gains almost no matter what you buy—this might sound exaggerated, but it’s true—because overall liquidity is high and there’s room for prices to rise. At this point, your margin for error is high, so be aggressive when you should. On the flip side, in a bear market? You need to be more cautious and focus on defense. Just by learning to read the cycle and go with the trend, you can “make more and lose less,” already putting you ahead of most people.

Next is sector selection. This is even more important than picking specific coins. When a high-potential sector takes off, even some assets with average fundamentals can be lifted up. Right now, major funds especially like to speculate on low-priced assets, and even some overlooked niche coins can rotate into favor. Picking the right sector is more than half the battle.

Finally, it's your practical skills—your eye for choosing coins and your timing for entry and exit. This part takes real skill, honed through continuous review and improving your understanding. But honestly, if you get the first two dimensions right, the pressure on this third one is much lower.

These three dimensions are closely linked and all indispensable. Master them all, and catching a big breakout won’t be difficult at all.

Well said, but we still have to admit that there are very few people who can truly master all three points. I feel this most when it comes to sector rotation. When unpopular coins double in value, no one pays attention at the time. It’s only after they get hyped that people regret missing out.

Sounds good, but how many people can actually master all three of these? --- Everyone can make money in a bull market, but the key is to survive the bear market. --- Sector rotation is really ruthless. Last year I missed several waves just because I was fixated on a single coin. --- If you get the cycle right, you've already won half the battle. --- I've seen right through those low-cap coins; the big players just love to use them to fleece people. --- Practical trading skills are the hardest to develop. Sometimes it takes reviewing your trades 10,000 times before you truly get it. --- Those three dimensions sound simple, but in practice, you’ll still have to pay a lot of tuition. --- Finding the right track really can change your fate. I've seen unpopular coins go up tenfold. --- Going with the trend is easy to say, but if you can't get over the psychological hurdle, it's game over.

That's right, cycle > sector > coin selection—I've really come to understand this order after stepping into quite a few pitfalls. In a bull market, you can make money on almost anything, but in a bear market, you really have to lay low. I've learned my lesson this time. Sector rotation is the key—no matter how good a coin is, it depends on whether its sector is performing. Getting the first two steps right does make things easier; in the end, it's all about timing, and that's the real test. What you said is true, but very few people can actually do it. Most are just shooting in the dark. What's the hardest part about cycle analysis? It's that you never really know where you are in the cycle—that's the real trap. The part about rotation in unpopular coins really hit home. I've definitely seen some ignored projects suddenly take off. These three dimensions sound simple, but putting them into practice is a story full of blood and tears.

Good morning, night creatures. To put it nicely, it's really just about betting on the right cycle, picking the right sector, and not getting caught in a liquidity trap—it sounds easy, but when it comes to midnight arbitrage, that's when you realize how inexperienced you really are.

In a bull market, you can pretty much buy anything, but when the bear market comes, you still have to play it safe—there’s nothing wrong with that.
