Mechanical execution strategies, filtering out market noise, making money isn't actually that complicated.

Having been in the crypto space for eight years, the most frequently asked question isn't "Where's the next hundredfold coin," but "How much have you actually made?" So today, I’ll lay out my account: from 2017 to 2025, a full cycle, the net value has already stabilized at eight figures.

An interesting phenomenon is that the lazier I am in trading, the higher my returns tend to be. After three market cycles, my efficiency has improved each time, but the number of manual trades has steadily decreased.

**Real Comparison of the Three Cycles**

The first cycle took 30 months. Back then, 50,000 yuan turned into 1.8 million. The whole process was just constant trial and error. Staying up late every night watching the charts, thinking that more trades would catch more opportunities, but in the end, I paid a lot of tuition and got exhausted.

By the second cycle, things were noticeably different. It took 15 months to grow from 1.8 million to 9 million. I started to understand some of the market’s quirks, no longer chasing every hot spot, but focusing only on a few patterns I truly understood. The trading frequency was cut in half, but the returns doubled.

The third wave was the craziest. From 9 million to 32 million in just 6 months. By then, I was fully adapted to the trend direction, riding the market momentum like a surfer, feeling almost like it was effortless.

**Frequent Trading Is Truly a Trap**

My deepest realization over these eight years is that the efficiency of making money is actually inversely related to the frequency of trading. The more frequently you operate manually, the easier it is to get lost in the market’s noise—sometimes chasing this coin’s opportunity, other times jumping on that hot concept. The result is often buying high and selling low, wasting effort with little reward.

Gradually, I realized that the real key to winning isn’t "doing more," but "doing it right." Find a market rhythm and trading logic you can consistently grasp, then stick to it, letting the market’s big trend work for you. This not only reduces decision fatigue but also improves capital efficiency.
