The most composed student I have ever had went from 2000U to 56,000U in just 45 days. His secret was turning "fear of loss" into a system.
When he first joined the group, he wanted to go all in at the slightest movement of the K-line. I didn't directly teach him to place orders; instead, I first set the rules: don’t think about making money before learning to "not care about losing money." Later, I drew three red lines for him, and he didn't break any of them.
1. Money should be divided into positions: so that liquidation does not touch your core.
He split 2000U into three parts, each with a mission.
800U locked and untouched: this is the last line of defense, no matter how big the fluctuation, it should not be used.
800U as a liquid position: only for daily trading, and each trade should not exceed 20% of this capital (i.e., 160U).
400U deposited into a cold wallet: unless in extreme situations, it should never enter the exchange.
This way, even if trading incurs losses, only a small portion of the liquid position is consumed first. Profits can be endured, but the principal remains safe.
2. Lock in half of your profits first: the money earned should immediately be "secured in hand."
We set a strict rule: for every 100U earned, immediately transfer 50U to the on-chain address for safekeeping, only using the remaining 50U for reinvestment.
Taking half of the profits off the table is equivalent to cutting off the path of "turning profits back into risk." The snowball can continue to roll, but the core part will never be regurgitated.
3. Emotion shutdown: only follow signals, not the noise.
I told him: "You only need to observe the relationship between volume and price; you don’t need to listen to anyone’s calls."
Last week at midnight, a debate between bulls and bears trended online. He stared at the screen wanting to follow the trend, and I told him to just turn off the computer: "Go to sleep now."
At two in the morning, a clear volume breakout signal appeared. We opened long as planned, and in 20 minutes,
we made an 8% profit. When we checked the group, the screen was filled with liquidation screenshots—while we had already turned off the computer and gone to sleep.
Most people lose not because they don’t understand the technology, but because they can’t wait.
They always feel that "if I don’t enter today, I’ll miss out on a billion," but often they end up losing their principal at the wrong times. The market will always have the next opportunity, but if the principal is gone, it’s really over.
Those who survive in the crypto world for a long time and earn steadily are often not the ones who "rush" the most, but rather the ones who "wait" the best. Before the signal comes, being in cash and waiting is your best position.
If you also want to learn to use systems to replace impulse and discipline to manage fluctuations, I am willing to accompany you on this journey.
