#BinanceABCs Crypto Market Survival Rules: 12 Unethical Trading Truths


$BTC $ETH

Trading in the crypto world is like navigating through a foggy forest—those who understand the rules survive well, while those who act recklessly will eventually get eaten. I’ve summarized 12 rules learned from losses; see if you’ve stepped on any of these:

1. The domestic market drops painfully during the day? You get itchy and want to buy the dip. As a result, at 21:30 in the evening, European and American traders open and start pushing prices up—your dip buy turns into the highest point.

2. Conversely, if prices surge during the day, it feels great, and you want to follow the trend. But by evening, it’s hammered back down. The rhythm gets played out like this.

3. The most bizarre signal is the “pinning.” The deeper and more aggressive the pin, the higher the probability of a buy or sell. Those sudden dips through support levels followed by quick rebounds are just market makers harvesting.

4. Before major meetings or positive announcements, the market often rises in advance. When the news is officially released, it immediately dumps. This contrast is a way to shake out retail investors.

5. Someone in the community recommends a coin and talks about it convincingly every day. You follow the trend and buy, only to get caught deep. When real opportunities come, no one mentions them. Reverse thinking: the coin being hyped most on social media is probably the one to short.

6. There’s a coin you’re not interested in and hesitant to buy, but it later skyrockets. Conversely, small bets on projects you doubt might surprise you.

7. The moment you hold a large position, your name appears on the liquidation list. Data shows that heavily held positions tend to die fastest.

8. After finally cutting losses, the market immediately reverses downward—market makers have a way of tricking you out first before starting a downtrend. TRX’s movement is a textbook example.

9. Just about to break free from a losing position, the price is about to surge, but then the rebound suddenly stalls. Market makers won’t let you escape easily.

10. You set a take-profit target, thinking this time it’s safe. But as the price approaches your target, it starts rising beyond expectations—how can they push the price higher if they don’t want you to ride the wave? The market is too heavy.

11. When you’re extremely excited, a sharp crash often hits as expected. Your own excitement is part of the trap set by market manipulators.

12. The most heartbreaking moment: when you have no money, all projects are rising, creating FOMO and tempting you to jump in.

Ultimately, the probability that the market is manipulated exceeds 80%. All you can do is control your position size, stay patient, and wait for the right moment before entering. Once you’re in, you become prey for the opposing side. Trading is a test of patience, resolve, and timing—let’s encourage each other.

It's the same old story... Honestly, my seventh point hurt the most, heavy positions directly blew up. --- I've seen many people play the reverse at point 5, but in the end, they still lose; going against the trend is also a gamble. --- It's a bit exaggerated... Not all market movements are manipulated by the big players; sometimes the market is just breathing on its own. --- Looking at all 12 points, there's only one core—risk control. The rest is just gambling. --- The key is that most people simply can't do "strike back first"; when they see prices rising, they want to follow, and that's the fatal flaw.

Damn it, it's the same old story again. I would be surprised if I believed it.

Hmm... That's right, every lesson learned the hard way through bloodshed. --- That set of needle injections is indeed top-notch; the stop-loss orders all exploded instantly. --- The last sentence "Market manipulation probability 80%"—not just that, I’d say 99%. --- Heavy positions are really asking for trouble; I tried once and never dared again. --- The coin recommended by the community is best to operate in the opposite way; I’ve tried this trick, and it works surprisingly well. --- The biggest gains happen when you have no money; when you have money, you're all trapped. Fate is truly cruel. --- They all seem correct, but in practice, I just can't stop myself from itching to act. --- Immediately reversing after cutting losses... I keep getting fooled every time. When will I learn to be smarter? --- I’ve memorized this time: 21:30 in the evening. From now on, I’ll operate at this time.

Damn, Article 12 is so heartbreaking, always like this... When there's no money, the screen is full of "take off" messages.

It's the same old theory... sounds nice, but basically just admitting you're bad at it.

Damn, this is my blood, sweat, and tears story. I've stepped on points 1, 8, and 12 all over... I'm just holding a small position now, waiting for the big players to reveal their intentions.

So true... I'm the sucker who bought the dip and ended up at the highest point. Now I just lie flat when it drops during the day, because it will most likely reverse at night anyway.

ngl the mempool tells all—these 12 rules are just basic sandwich protection 101. real alpha comes from reading block builder collusion patterns, not crying about wick liquidations. most retail doesn't even know what toxic flow looks like yet lol
