As a 45-year-old cryptocurrency investor, I have been working in this field for a full decade. This experience has brought about a tremendous change in my life: now I pay attention to market dynamics every day, engage in some contract trading, and also invest in spot trading at the right time. My daily expenses no longer require meticulous budgeting, and I have hardly encountered any business disputes, with very few worries in my life.
Looking back on the investment journey of the past decade, my biggest insight is that in the cryptocurrency market, the importance of mindset far exceeds that of technology. Here are some practical experiences I've accumulated over the years:
First of all, Bitcoin is undoubtedly the bellwether of the entire market. In most cases, other encryption currencies will follow Bitcoin's trend. However, there are exceptions, such as Ethereum and other well-established mainstream coins that occasionally exhibit independent market trends. Nevertheless, the vast majority of small coins still tend to follow Bitcoin's fluctuations, and the market linkage effect is significant.
Secondly, I observed an interesting 'teeter-totter effect' between Bitcoin and USDT. When USDT continues to appreciate, it often indicates that Bitcoin may face a decline; conversely, if Bitcoin experiences a significant rise, it could be a good opportunity to convert profits into USDT.
Furthermore, I have noticed that there are often 'spike market trends' between 0-1 AM. Domestic investors can take advantage of this pattern by setting low buy orders for the cryptocurrencies they are optimistic about before going to bed, while also setting high sell orders for the cryptocurrencies they hold. This time period often sees significant fluctuations, making it easy to trigger preset orders and achieve 'sleeping profits'.
Additionally, 5 PM is a time point worth paying close attention to. As the European and American markets begin to become active, the market is prone to large fluctuations. I have personally experienced several instances where significant rises and falls occurred during this time period, and I recommend that investors pay more attention to market trends at this time.
Regarding the so-called 'Black Friday', I advise everyone to stay rational. Although there is a saying that the market tends to drop significantly on Fridays, in reality, there are also many instances of significant gains or sideways movement on Fridays. The accuracy of this saying is not high, and investors do not need to be overly anxious; they just need to pay appropriate attention to relevant news.
Finally, for those non-airdrop projects with considerable trading volume, even if you are stuck in the short term, there is no need to be overly anxious. Maintaining patience usually allows you to break even—quickly in three to four days, or slowly in about a month. If funds are sufficient, consider averaging down by buying in batches to lower the average cost; if funds are limited, patiently waiting may also lead to the opportunity to break even.
This decade-long journey in cryptocurrency investment has deeply taught me that success requires not only professional knowledge but also strong psychological qualities and the right investment philosophy. I hope my experience can provide some beneficial references for both new and veteran investors.
