On July 7th, Huobi HTX's new column "Huobi Partner 1+1" invited crypto KOL traders Zhu Yidan, Gong Youchai, and Youngcudi, with the theme "Different Levels of Trading, Who Wakes Up First?" They shared profound insights into trading logic, market trends, and investment strategies from multiple dimensions, providing users with highly practical reference perspectives.
Trading Logic: Finding Order in Chaos
In Zhu Yidan's view, trading is an exchange of chips and funds, which essentially does not create new value. Therefore, the essence of trading is cultivation, a long-term forging of human nature, cognition, emotions, and execution. He mentioned the "six levels of trading realm", ultimately returning to internal control and understanding, rather than market prediction and gaming.
Zhu Yidan believes that before each trade, one needs to develop response strategies: how to add positions or lock in profits after earning, how to hold or adjust positions during fluctuations, and how to cut losses decisively when losing. Countermeasures should be written down, training execution, and strictly following the plan. When facing unexpected situations, set trigger conditions and execute resolutely. For beginners, it is more advisable to stay in cash and observe rather than adventure in turbulent markets.
He emphasized that under the current market conditions, one should actively reduce positions, avoid high leverage, maintain a calm mindset, and patiently wait for opportunities.
Gong Youchai, who has correctly judged market directions 13 times consecutively, adheres to the natural trading concept, not being overly aggressive or greedy, not continuously rolling positions All In, and emphasizing "risk control first, profit second".
He believes that the market is a highly chaotic system, and behind price changes, there is no absolute logic to precisely predict. Whether it's positive or negative news often becomes clear only after the event occurs. Facing this uncertainty, one should return to pure technical analysis, especially rule-based trading systems based on indicators like MACD, which means an entry and exit system with rules, plans, and stop-loss/take-profit. At the same time, trading execution must "slow down" and avoid "opening positions with red eyes".
As an OG, Youngcudi believes that in any market cycle, traders need to focus not just on profits and losses, but on maintaining a stable mindset and improving cognition.
Bitcoin and Market Trends: Consensus King and Divergence Game
Discussing their views on the current cryptocurrency landscape, the guests highly consensus that BTC remains the core asset in the medium to long term.
Zhu Yidan believes that Bitcoin is still the "consensus king", but the market is experiencing structural divergence. In contrast, Altcoins have become "flowing plates and graveyards for retail investors", with risks becoming increasingly concentrated; ETH is more like a massive "gambling pool" with a complex ecosystem and intense gaming.
Gong Youchai believes BTC still has upward potential in the medium to long term, with breakthrough being just a matter of time. He points out that at this stage, recognizing an asset and profiting from it are not equivalent. The market has a heavy speculative atmosphere, and the MEME coin "dog rush" phenomenon behind it is about rapid gaming and interest distribution. It might be hot in the short term, but in the medium to long term, choosing the wrong track can easily lead to injury.
Regarding this week's and the upcoming period's macroeconomic data impact, Zhu Yidan suggests users pay attention to whether this month releases rate cut signals, especially "post-event statements" from Federal Reserve members. Gong Youchai emphasizes updates to Trump's tariff policies. Once tariff policies are implemented, the impact may exceed expectations, especially on the liquidity layout of global safe-haven assets.
Advice for Investors and New KOLs
At the end of the livestream, the guests offered advice to users and new KOLs hoping to enter Web3 content creation.
Zhu Yidan suggests that maintaining learning ability is the greatest confidence for traders and content creators. As the market changes, only continuous input can sustain output. Gong Youchai believes that choice is more important than effort. One should maintain a cultivation mindset and persist.
