#Strategy加码BTC配置 The recent market trend is essentially a battle between capital and sentiment.



Prices fluctuate up and down, and when you chase in, you face pullbacks; when you turn around and cut losses, you get slapped in the face—this repetitive oscillation is the easiest way to wear people down. Account sizes are getting smaller and smaller, not because the direction is wrong, but because of repeated mistakes during volatility.

The logic of the market movers is actually very simple: they don't need to rush to push prices up or down; their goal is to drain your patience through continuous oscillation. When your mindset is out of control and your operations become distorted, they will trigger the real trend. At this point, the more you want to "recover quickly," the easier you are to fall into the trap.

I have summarized three core principles that can help you maintain your rhythm during oscillations:

**First, stagger your entries instead of going all-in at once**

For the price zones you believe in, enter multiple times. This way, when prices rise, you gain position benefits; when they fall, you still have bullets to add. The direct reason many accounts blow up is because they go all-in at once and can't withstand normal fluctuations.

**Second, leave room for stop-loss and stick to discipline for take-profit**

Setting stop-loss too tightly will cause frequent triggers from small market fluctuations. True stop-loss should be placed below structural break levels, not arbitrarily cut at any minor wave. The purpose of stop-loss is to protect the principal, not to frequently cut losses.

**Third, plan ahead and stay put at non-critical levels**

Plan important support and resistance levels before trading, and patiently wait until the price reaches those points. People who change their strategy on the fly at the sight of a single bullish candle usually don't get good results. Trading is not about who reacts faster, but about who can better control emotions and rhythm.

The real reason many traders lose money is not because of misjudging the direction, but because they succumb to the "itchy hands" devil. In a choppy market environment, reducing operations itself is the best strategy.

If you also feel like you're being led by the nose by the market recently, try taking a break: turn off the market for a few hours, adjust your mindset, and reassess the larger cycle direction. Opportunities are always there, but once the principal is gone, it's hard to turn things around.

Only traders who can stay steady have a chance to survive until the day the trend truly starts to run unilaterally.

Damn, I got chopped again, this devil with itchy hands really can be deadly. You're right, every time there's a bullish candle, I want to chase, but I end up getting trapped. I agree with the idea of deploying in batches, but executing it really tests human nature. This round is really frustrating. I'll talk again when the trend starts.

nah the real thing here is watching mempool patterns during these shakeouts... when everyone's panic selling, that's when fee optimization actually matters most

That's so true, the urge to trade is the real killer. I used to be like that, watching the candlestick swings and wanting to act, but the more I traded, the more I lost. My current strategy is to set support levels and then not watch the market; it works pretty well.

That's so true, the itch to trade is really a killer. I've been like that lately—changing plans after just one candlestick, and as a result, my account keeps getting smaller. Alright, time to close the market software and go for a walk. Batching up positions is the key point. Now I finally understand how people who go all-in end up losing. Waiting for the trend is a hundred times more important than reacting quickly. When your mindset collapses, even the best technicals are useless. I truly understand this now. It's really about competing with yourself. The fewer trades you make, the more you earn—it's ironic. I feel the same. After being washed out by the main force, I finally get this principle. The tuition was really expensive. Setting stop-losses at the right positions can really help you survive to the next stage. Previously, frequently cutting losses was just foolish.
