The pace of the crypto world has indeed accelerated over the past two years. I recently dug up my trading records from six months ago. My initial capital of $50,000 surged to $3 million at its peak. Let's analyze what happened during this period.

It all started with the September market rally. ZEC repeatedly oscillated around the $55 mark. I spent a lot of time observing the trend and ultimately decided to heavily buy in. The performance of this coin exceeded expectations—rising all the way to $665, with unrealized gains of $427,000. That feeling is hard to describe—numbers on the screen kept flashing, and a mix of psychological pressure and excitement hit me. In the end, I decided to take profits.

The market didn't end there. When it retraced to around $500, I saw another opportunity and decided to re-enter. When it rose to $648, I promptly took profits. Although the profit from this single trade was only $74,000, the consistent operations made the overall gains more stable.

Looking back at these two trades, the core logic is actually quite simple—wait until you've observed enough before acting, and take profits when the price reaches your target. Many people always want to wait for the highest point, but often they miss the selling opportunity or get shaken out during a pullback. When the market moves, capturing the rhythm is more practical than chasing maximum returns.

There are still many opportunities in the current market. The key is to maintain clear judgment and not be swayed by emotions.
