To be honest, the most stable returns in my account actually come from the most disciplined trading.
Last month, I experienced a full seven days of no position. It’s not that I missed opportunities—there are plenty of opportunities—but none of them felt quite right. During that time, the market was oscillating repeatedly, various coins were inexplicably surging and falling, and every day someone in the group asked, "Did I miss the boat?"
We chose to stay put.
It wasn’t until the weekend that the chart finally formed a clear pattern. XMR resonated at a support level we had been watching for a long time, and the volume also aligned perfectly. Only then did we send out an entry signal in the group. After more than a week of holding, we finally exited at the take-profit level, earning a total of 80 points.
Over the years, I’ve seen too many people lose money, and the reason is often not technical but that they simply can’t stop. They always feel that not trading is a waste, so they follow the trend and adjust every day. Truly competitive traders sometimes demonstrate their strength precisely in their willingness to hold cash and wait.
Remember one thing: the market won’t disappear, but your principal might vanish in pointless tinkering. Wait until you truly understand the situation before taking action; often, this approach yields better results than rushing around every day.
