Family, who understands! The account balance dropped from five digits to only 800 yuan, and my finger hovered over the uninstall button for three days. In the end, I surprisingly turned it thirty times with just three "nonsense" phrases? As a seasoned market watcher for 8 years... oh no, a senior crypto analyst, I must share this life-saving story with you today!
800 yuan to 23,000: not a myth but a "foolish method"
Last month, a fan contacted me late at night, their message full of despair: "Bro, this 800 is my last food supply, I'm behind on rent, and if I lose, I’ll have to roll up my mat and go back home." I didn't recommend any "divine coins," nor did I shout any "guaranteed profit orders," I just threw out three iron laws that I learned from my own mistakes:
Position sizing is like cutting a cake: divide 800 into 4 portions, with a maximum of 200 for each entry. Don’t think "it’s not necessary because the money is small"; the less money you have, the more you need to keep the risk in hand—think about it, if you put everything in and lose, you won't even have the principal to recover, this isn't gambling, it's risking your life.
Trading is like clocking in at work: do a maximum of 2 trades daily, regardless of profit or loss, and then withdraw to your account. I've seen too many people who lose and want to "make it back", getting deeper into "gambler-style trading", eventually losing even their principal to emotions. Trading is a marathon, not a sprint.
Cutting losses is like a safety valve: if a single loss exceeds 30, run immediately. Don’t hold on to the illusion of "maybe it will rise if I wait a bit longer"; what the market has in abundance are surprises. As long as there's a green mountain left, you can wait for the next wave of the market.
The key point is: these three lines are not some profound strategies, they are just the "bottom line for survival". Yet, 90% of people fail because they find it "troublesome"—either they go all in or hold their positions, and in the end, their accounts are empty.
So, guess what happened? In the first week, he made a small profit of 200 with this "simple method". In the second week, he hit a wave in the market, directly jumping to 5000, and yesterday he sent me a screenshot: 23,000! It's not that he suddenly became smarter; he finally learned to "stop competing with the market".
I show both profits and losses: I never hide my real trading results.
Some say I "act like a god", so let me show my cards: recently, I made a 186% profit on a certain coin's long position and a 410% profit on a short position for another coin, but I also had a 56% loss on another coin—these operations were all synchronized in the community, without any tricks.
What I want to say is: no analyst can predict the market 100% accurately, including me. What can truly turn your situation around is never the "infallible prediction", but these three things:
The determination to cut losses.
Don’t hesitate when you’re losing; cut it if you need to. Preserving the principal is more important than anything.
The patience to take profits.
Don't be greedy when you're making a profit, but also don't run away with just a little profit; let the gains fly a bit longer.
The persistence in reviewing trades.
Spend 10 minutes every day summarizing your operations; knowing what went right and what went wrong is more useful than just staring at the market.
Lastly, let me say something heartfelt: don't be a "gambler", be a "hunter".
If your account doesn't look good right now, don't rush to uninstall the APP. First, ask yourself: Have you treated trading as a "get rich quick" gamble? The market never pities gamblers but rewards disciplined hunters.
Follow me, every day I will share real trading operations, market analysis, and survival techniques on the homepage—no private message tricks, just solid content. Next time you show your profits, remember to come back and share the joy! After all, seeing fans go from "losing to crying" to "smiling brightly" is even more satisfying than making money myself~
