OP, I'm not a trader so I'm not competing with you for trades--therefore, I wish you luck with whatever strategy you employ. I had heard of scalping on this forum over the years but never really understood what people were talking about (precisely because I'm not a trader and thus don't pay attention to the details). Thanks for your very detailed post, I liked reading it.

And this:

Many novice traders, when they earn 2-3 months on the crypto market, then start running around the Internet and yelling that they have found a way to earn 100%, they start sharing their strategies, their signals. They've been trading profitably for several months now, so they understand this business?

You're on the money about that--not only about trading, but almost everything else. I've seen so many Youtube videos made by males who have to be in their early 20s talking about trading, economics, and various life issues that I can tell they know nothing about because they haven't lived long enough to learn all there is to know about whatever it is they're blabbing on about. It drives me nuts, because they're the ones usually making bank by churning out such videos.

Good luck in your future trading, OP.

I used to be a scalper, and I saw the content of this post and reply, which completely described my life.

1. Sudden unearned gains, I am excited, I am an expert, I got the wealth code, drink and sing, because I have money, but I don’t know it is lucky. I want to tell the world, follow me, I can take you to fly together.

2. Without an objective analysis, my guts began to expand. I used to hold the spot, but now I want to increase my bargaining chips (I am like a gambler).

3. I started not sleeping every day. I lost my job and family. Sometimes I knew that I should let go, but the hand on the phone did not follow the instructions of the brain, and my eyes stopped blinking.

4. My body is very honest. I fell asleep and was suddenly awakened again. I was worried that I could not find my phone and there were bloodshot eyes in my eyes.

5. This state lasted for half a year, and my result was a mental breakdown, and I suffered from a severe self-consciousness phobia.

6. My principal is flying, my friends no longer believe me, I am lonely, and I slowly enter a normal state by relying on drugs. From the beginning of 2021, I completely leave the exchange. After I hit the wall, I saw my head broke and I knew who am i?

I'm lucky, I know, my knowledge in the cryptocurrency industry is pitiful. When you find the shortcut to success, I have entered the vortex of failure. You figured it out from the beginning. This is impossible. You have to pay the price. If I did not have the experience of scalping, I would not have the current knowledge, even if you told me the result, I would not have the complete knowledge. This is the way I must go.
I want to say, stay away from exchanges, stay away from short-term trading, stay away from greed, and find your own psychologist regularly (the doctor told me that 9 out of 10 people are mentally unhealthy). What then? Study, study, study-hold for a long time, and be optimistic about your wallet.
