A while ago, a brother came to me and said that the Ethereum market has been too volatile lately, and he only has 2000U left in his account.
It's not that he lacks experience, but his trading basically relies on feelings, chasing highs and cutting losses, getting emotional and losing two or three thousand in a day, directly causing his account to be in disarray.
He told me: “If I don’t turn things around soon, I’m thinking of quitting this circle.”
I looked at him, smiled and said: “That 2000U you have isn’t meant for doubling; it’s meant to lay a foundation for your future.”
Do you think turning things around can rely on a sudden explosion? You are very mistaken.
Turning things around isn’t about “taking a gamble”; it’s about being steady, having patience, and accumulating little by little.
So I told him how to handle things in such situations:
First, you must learn to stay calm! Don’t move around recklessly.
In the past, whenever he looked at the market, he wanted to jump in, chasing highs and cutting losses, resulting in always “buying at high points and selling at low points.”
I told him: “When the market hasn’t moved, just calm down and stay in cash.” If it doesn’t rise, wait; if it doesn’t fall, don’t rush to enter the market.
Then, you need to control your position.
Each time you trade, take in a maximum of 400U to keep the risk manageable. He used to lose 2000 in a day, but now he can steadily earn 300 or 500.
Set stop-losses for every trade; it’s okay to lose, but the fear is holding on until the end without a plan.
Finally, you need to learn to review your trades and adjust your thinking.
At first, he was a bit skeptical: “Can we really turn this around at such a slow pace?”
I told him: “Slow is the most stable.”
After every trade, whether he made a profit or a loss, he would spend time reviewing, reflecting on what he did right and what he did wrong.
Gradually, his trading mindset became clearer, and his mentality steadier.
Two months passed, and he grew from 2000U to 90,000U. It wasn’t by luck or a one-time explosion, but by following the rhythm and discipline, progressing steadily, and accumulating step by step.
You might also have only a few thousand U left, feeling a bit discouraged, thinking the market is too difficult.
But I tell you, turning things around isn’t an overnight matter; it’s about taking one step at a time, enduring loneliness, and maintaining discipline.
There are many opportunities to turn things around; the market lacks opportunities, but it lacks someone who can stick to the rules and control their emotions.
What you need to do isn’t to rush for success, but to execute patiently. The trading mindset is very important; we are not afraid of being slow, only afraid that you give up.
The next wave of market opportunity is just around the corner; I hope you don’t miss your chance again!
