In 2017, I entered the circle with 2000U.
The brothers around me were worse off one after another: some mortgaged their cars to make up for losses, some stayed up all night watching the market until their eyes went red, and others returned to square one overnight.
But I stayed steady, growing my account to seven figures, with a maximum drawdown of no more than 8% over five years.
Don’t ask me if I have insider information or if I understand some mysterious K-line.
I really don’t. I was too lazy to even look at the charts in the early morning.
I just understand a bit more than others:
Making money is not about guessing, but about not doing stupid things.
① Lock in the principal, never touch it
The most important habit I developed over these five years is to keep the principal locked in a safe, where no one can touch it.
As long as my profits exceed 10%, I immediately withdraw half and put it in a cold wallet.
The remaining profits continue to roll in the market.
When the market is good, I eat compound interest;
When the market is bad, the losses are also part of the profit;
The principal remains as steady as an old dog.
I have withdrawn profits more than thirty times over the years, with a maximum of 170,000 U withdrawn in one week,
and the platform even asked me, "Is the source of funds normal?" Hilarious.
② No predictions, no gambling
Whether the market goes up or down has nothing to do with me.
I don’t guess, nor do I force it.
If I can take a bite, I’ll go; if I’m wrong, I’ll cut it; if the market turns bad, I’ll dodge.
To put it simply: if you’re not greedy, you won’t die.
③ If you want to make money, don’t blow up your account first
90% of people in this circle fall not because they can't operate,
but because they hold positions, gamble on directions, and are reluctant to cut losses.
As long as you protect your principal, even if the market is terrible, there will always be opportunities for you to turn things around.
I can survive for 8 years and keep growing, not because I am amazing,
but because I don’t act recklessly.
If you are still blowing up your account, trading recklessly, making one profit and losing three,
then start by changing one thing: learn to survive first, then talk about how to earn.
If you want, I can continue to share my "steady method of making money without blowing up your account" with you.
