I still think many people have put the cart before the horse. The existence of volatile cryptocurrencies came first, then the indicators. Being overly obsessed with creating a bunch of indicators seems like overtrading, since rising prices increase trading volume, which inflates many data points. Furthermore, market manipulators evolve. In 2022 and 2023, you only needed to look at OI and Funding. In 2024, TRB and OKEx had a 30% premium; I was risking my life without thinking. Now, Rave has collapsed with a 10% premium, and all I can think about is how this monster is trying to ruin me. Their methods and models are constantly evolving. Take the recently popular AI-driven cryptocurrency trading, for example. It's quite impressive, and I'm trying it myself. But why have I been making money these past few days? I think the essence is that AI eliminates the fear of chasing highs and the hesitation of stop-loss orders. But what if you tried that two months ago? The market made AI, not the other way around. I think we shouldn't put the cart before the horse; excessive faith in it will be the beginning of losing money.

Pure distillation won't cut it. I didn't even dare to do automation, only signals.
