Reflections after 5 years of full-time trading Since resigning from a central SOE in April 2021 and now trading full-time, it has been a full five years. Since it's been five years, I think I should write something and leave something to keep. For these five years, I have given all my passion, time, and money. ------------------------------- My schoolmate and comrade said I played a good hand badly, that I had been a special forces soldier, and was the only person in our regiment who could join the Party after two years of service. After leaving the army, I returned to school and switched from our school's flagship major, architecture, to the tough civil engineering major. But when I graduated, I was one of two people admitted to a central enterprise through my own efforts. (Because when our major was recruited at our school, the central enterprise was already full. Two people were admitted: one was me, and the other was a classmate of mine. Reportedly, his family elder was a retired provincial cadre.) After graduating from university, he brought the aura of being a special forces soldier, a national flag honor guard, a provincial outstanding graduate, and scoring above 500 on the CET-4 and CET-6 English exams to enter a Fortune Global 500 central enterprise. At the company, I was highly valued by my boss because of my high emotional intelligence, good image, and solid cognition and logical thinking. If things had gone according to this script, I probably would have become a leader just like my schoolmate and comrade. --------------------------- But by a twist of fate, I ended up entering the narrow gateway of professional trading. At the beginning of 2021, after earning my first million-dollar fortune, I mistakenly saw trading as a career where you could succeed easily. Like most people, I was arrogant—earning 1.5 million on one deal and losing 2 million on another, and I remained calm, because I believed I was truly the chosen one, the god of trading. If this continued, even Buffett wouldn't care about me. In 2021, starting from the second half of the year, I started to lose steadily—hundreds of thousands, even hundreds of thousands. I went for a loss, then went for it; if I made a profit, I didn't exit, waiting until I lost before exiting. At the beginning of 2022, I started to panic. First, because I didn't have much money on hand and was about to run out; second, I realized that the technical indicators I had learned earlier seemed to be useless. 2022-2024 marked the start of my new trading career. In the second or third year, I started constantly writing review notes. Although it may seem childish now, I think this was the first step in my change. It wasn't until the end of 2024 that I finally woke up and realized that the MA, MACD, and other technical indicators I had painstakingly reviewed before were useless and all wrong. But at this point, I was just skeptical, step by step testing my new understanding. On the winter solstice of 25 years, I truly attained enlightenment. Because I'm very confident that short-term contract trading doesn't rely on technical indicators, but on volume-price and structural breakthroughs. In 2025, I achieved this twice: using $200 in 20 days to make $40,000, a 200x return. This gave me a lot of confidence. I just suddenly realized that my spiritual guide in trading, the otaku Bitcoin, said in 2021 that trading is not related to principal and correctness. But why do you make gains and then lose them back? First, because of financial pressure in real life, and second, because you can't control your actions. Up to now, I've been working hard to overcome these two issues. When cognition reaches the correct dimension, the unity of knowledge and action is effective. If all perceptions are wrong, then execution is one, just adding mistakes upon mistakes. After saying so much, what I want to tell everyone is that trading ultimately follows a volume-price structure. Don't waste your energy searching for the trading holy grail or all kinds of bluffy technical indicators. My trading has really come full circle and come back again. If there's a breakout, I chase; if I fake a breakout, I cut my losses. It's really that simple. I don't know how far I can go on this path, but as long as I can keep going, I will keep moving forward with determination.

Today is the Winter Solstice according to the Chinese lunar calendar, an important milestone and also a significant point in Haihai's trading career! Haihai has truly attained enlightenment. Because I have solved the last difficult problem in trading that I had struggled with before: how to resolve the contradiction between "controlling drawdown and enduring drawdown." This problem is now completely solved. So the two times this year, in March-April and October-November, when I turned a little over 1,000 yuan into over 200,000 yuan in about 20 days, a 200x return, and then lost it again— all the flaws and shortcomings in that process have now been thoroughly resolved. Because my trading system has now been finalized, and I have named it: the Structural Trading System! In the future, Haihai's trading legend and the Structural Trading System will surely be widely talked about and spread. I’m giving myself this praise first!!!! My old self: 1. When I saw sharp rises and steep falls, I would feel impulsive inside. 2. I used to fear missing out, fear being sidelined, fear that this might be the "trade of destiny." My current self: 1. I know this asset "cannot be touched right now." 2. I know I have to wait for it to form a certain structure before taking action. 3. After taking action, I know whether it’s a "trial-and-error trade," "riding the main rise," or "endgame play." I have completely shifted from emotion-driven to structure-driven now!!!!! 1. I know when not to trade: when the structure isn’t complete, emotions are still present, and no error points have appeared. This understanding solved my itch to trade! 2. I know when I can try and err! The trial-and-error trades I make are logical, not gambling on direction! This understanding helped me accept losses and drawdowns! 3. I know how to hold after entering! Whether to ride out emotional pullbacks, structural reversals, or large-scale trends. This understanding solved the problem of which candlestick I should be worried about and which I should ignore!! One more thing for everyone: if you are still at the stage of "the market is causing me to lose money," it really means your understanding is almost zero. When you reach the stage of "where did I make a mistake," your understanding begins to accumulate, and your trading can be said to have just started. Above is excerpted from my Weibo post on 2025.12.25, reflections on the Winter Solstice.

$DOS Short-term violent surge, single-day increase over 33%. From the market perspective, this wave of rise is a capital-driven trend. The chips near the previous bottom of 0.32 were fully washed out, and short-term incremental funds concentrated to enter, with volume expanding and continuous large bullish candlesticks. Short-term moving averages are in a bullish arrangement, and the buying sentiment is quickly ignited. Small-cap coin trends mostly do not rely on fundamental implementation but more on rotating market hotspots and concentrated speculative capital driving the price up. The characteristic of this type of trend is rapid rise, but the risk of chip realization also increases simultaneously. The short-term upper high of 0.535 becomes the first resistance level, with huge risk in chasing the high. Once funds exit, the correction speed will also be very fast. When participating in such small coins, focus closely on changes in trading volume. Volume expansion without price increase often signals a short-term peak. Do not blindly chase at high levels.

Recently, everyone has been criticizing the so-called Binance prince, um-hmm. I don't mean to criticize, but what I want to express is that whether or not he really has personal assets of A9, he definitely couldn't have earned it through trading. Because, through trading, going from a poor kid to A9 requires the blessing of time and hellish torment. You have to endure 5-10 years of inhuman torment in the market. Anyway, all the people I know who made their fortune through trading are like this: Bitcoin Emperor, Lang Lang, Fu Haitang, Lin Yuan, Jing Xin, Boss Ten. Trading is not as simple as the persona of um-hmm. His understanding of trading is probably not even at an elementary school level. If he really has A9, then it must have been earned through other shady means in the crypto world, definitely not trading.

$BTC Trust your own eyes, short In the past ten days, Bitcoin has been consolidating and rising with extremely low volume Although it’s not a horizontal convergence, the volume is extremely low So it’s time to choose a direction Before choosing, everyone was saying it’s time to pick a direction Then yesterday closed with a downward high-volume bearish candle Actually, this is the direction we’ve been hoping for So let’s take it as the real direction If you overthink, you really can’t trade

$CRV climbed the gainers list today I know this coin's nature very well Brothers, Buy it around 0.29, this is the limit of its rebound here

US July CPI Preview Report $BTC $ETH This Wednesday at 8:30 PM, the US July CPI will be released, a key data point that will determine the pace of the Federal Reserve's rate cuts. 1. Inflation declines → rate cut expectations rise, benefiting US stocks, gold, Bitcoin, and other risk assets. 2. Inflation rebounds beyond expectations → rate cuts delayed, the US dollar strengthens, and high-valuation assets come under pressure. Currently, Bitcoin's bullish momentum is weakening, and in this volatile market, the CPI is very likely to be the trigger that breaks the range.

$BTC has been climbing with fluctuations for ten days, slowly grinding up and wearing down the bulls' patience, without volume confirming new highs, then turning to a pullback. This ten-day gradual rise is essentially a battle of existing funds, with insufficient new inflows, and the market has lacked strong buying to confirm a breakout. During the fluctuations, a large amount of short-term long positions accumulated, and once upward momentum weakens, profit-taking orders concentrate and prices quickly retract. Currently, the market has returned inside the range, with key support to watch around the previous 62200 level. The key point for the short-term market: whether the decline is a corrective shakeout or the start of a new downtrend depends on the support level holding and changes in capital volume. After the fluctuation, do not rush to bottom-fish; wait for clear signals from the market first.
