Crypto Circle Survival Story: From Losing 150,000 to Ten Million Positions, I Survived with These 4 Simple Logics
“Brother, lend me 500 bucks for rent, I've lost everything in the crypto world again...” Three years ago, I choked up on the phone with my childhood friend, and now, my trading account balance has six more zeros at the end. If you are currently staring at the candlestick chart until three in the morning, fantasizing about financial freedom with a two-point rise, and starting to check 'what to do about credit card overdue' with a three-point drop, then you must read this article to the end — it's not the metaphysical strategies I've summarized from the pitfalls I've experienced and the positions I've blown over 8 years, but rather the fundamental logic that can help you 'survive' in the crypto circle.
Is your account glowing green? Three undercurrents are stirring the crypto market, and cutting losses now is equivalent to giving away money!
The moment I opened the K-line chart in the morning, I guess many friends, like me, took a sharp breath as mainstream cryptocurrencies collectively plunged. Even the usually resilient top assets broke through key support levels, and the green on the holding page was more eye-catching than the grass in spring. The back end was in chaos, filled with messages asking, 'Is the black swan back?' and 'Should we quickly cut losses?' But to be honest, this drop is not an unexpected event; it is the simultaneous force of three hidden 'funding undercurrents' that twisted market liquidity into a 'twisted doughnut.' As a veteran who has been watching the crypto market for eight years, I will dissect the logic behind this today, helping everyone turn anxiety into opportunity.
I have seen the worst contract liquidations, all dying from "3% stop-loss"
Last week, while helping a fan review their account, I saw a heartbreaking operation: a novice trader strictly executed a "fixed 3% stop-loss," resulting in being stopped out 8 times in three days during a wave of fluctuations in SOL. The fees added up to more than the actual losses, and the principal was directly halved. This is not an isolated case; I have seen at least 20 similar "stop-loss martyrs." Many people, when first encountering contracts, treat "fixed percentage stop-loss" as gospel. The forums are filled with statements like "ironclad discipline guarantees profit" and "systematic trading never fails," and some even share screenshots of "turning losses into gains after 10 consecutive stop losses." But no one tells you: the market is not a mechanical numerical game; applying fixed values to all market conditions is like putting children's shoes on an elephant—seemingly safe, but it collapses at the slightest touch.
From 1000 to 10,000, the most 'foolish' logic for making money in the crypto market that newcomers should learn
Three months ago, I received a message from a student: 'Teacher, the red and green bars on the K-line chart look like garbled text. Is this market just a scam to trick newcomers out of their money?' At that time, he was clutching 1000U as his principal, daring to click the order button, fearing that just a twitch of his finger would lead to total loss. But last weekend, he sent over a screenshot—account balance 10237U. The backend immediately exploded, with a bunch of people asking me if I had given any 'insider indicators' or 'exclusive signals'. To be honest, if I had that ability, I wouldn't be sitting here writing articles. His success relies entirely on a 'foolishly simple' five-step operation, especially in the fluctuations of low market cap coins; this method is simply a 'lifesaver'.
Cryptocurrency market plummeting to 90,000? Don't panic, the 'resilience' logic of this market trend is hidden here
Last night when Bitcoin broke below 90,000, my backend was flooded with messages like 'I can't hold on anymore, I have to cut losses' and 'Is the bear market really here?'. There were also fans sending screenshots saying they were staring at the charts with shaky hands, hardly even having the thought to drink water. To be honest, I've seen this scene for five whole years; every time there are fluctuations at key points, the market always falls into collective anxiety, but the truth often goes against the emotions. Thinking back to the market fluctuations in 2023 when it was just above 30,000, I was even more conflicted than my current followers. Back then, I scoured various news platforms every day; if it rose by two points, I felt that 'breaking 100,000 was just around the corner', and if it fell by three points, I panicked thinking 'we're heading back to the 20,000 range'. In the end, after a series of buying high and selling low, my returns were worse than those of the old followers who just sat back and did nothing. It wasn't until later that I finally understood: the news is always the 'tail' of the market, not the 'navigator'. The so-called positive and negative news are mostly just 'post-event annotations' that come together after the market has moved, and relying on this to predict trends is purely self-inflicted pain.
Stop blaming leverage for your losses! The real scythe is your “gambling nature”
Received a private message at three in the morning, full of despair: “Teacher, with a principal of 200,000 and 2x leverage, only 30,000 is left after a week. This leverage is just robbing money!” I sighed at the screen, another trader treating tools as enemies. To be honest, my fear of leverage in my early years was no less than anyone else's. Back then, I held onto spot positions, watching others earn a fortune with 5x leverage in trending markets, while I could only nibble on a few points of profit. It wasn't until three years ago, trading mainstream assets with Lao Chen, that I completely shattered the inherent belief that “leverage = risk.”
Contracts are not a casino! I have survived in the crypto market for 5 years relying on a "calculation mindset".
Received a message from a fan at 2 AM: "Teacher, the 20x long position has exploded, I've lost half a year's salary..." In the attached screenshot, the signal group is still saying, "Wait a bit longer for a rebound." I directly blacklisted that so-called "strategy mentor"; this is not guiding trades, it's clearly pushing people into the fire pit. Too many people misunderstand perpetual contracts, thinking that opening leverage is just gambling. But after struggling for 5 years, from a 50x liquidation down to two digits to now stabilizing profits, the most profound lesson is: the core of contracts is "calculation," not "gambling." Only by calculating the rules clearly, understanding the trends, and assessing the risks appropriately can one join the table; otherwise, it's just giving away money.
8 Years in the Crypto Circle: The Lesson I Learned from Going from 600,000 in Unrealized Gains to 200,000, More Difficult than Doubling is This Matter
I have seen the joy of a full screen of red at three in the morning, and I have also witnessed the silence after a plunge in the K-line at five in the morning; I have witnessed someone use 3,000 in capital to earn a house, and I have also seen a big player with '10 million on paper' revert to being broke within a week. After 8 years of struggling in the crypto market, the one heartfelt message I want to convey to both new and old players is: there are countless ways to make money here, but the only two words that will help you survive until the next bull market are 'take profit'. In that wave of market in 2021, I met a tech-savvy brother named A Kai, who entered the market with 5,000 in capital and happened to catch a booming opportunity in an ecosystem, causing his account to soar to 100,000 in three months. At that time, it was rumored in the circle that he was the 'chosen one', and he was riding high— I advised him to 'withdraw 30,000 first, even if it's just to save it as a fixed deposit', but he patted my shoulder and laughed: 'Old A, you are too conservative. When I reach 500,000, I will directly resign and trade full-time.'
From 20,000 to 140,000, the key to making money in the cryptocurrency market: it's not about watching the market, it's about 'knowing how to wait'
A few days ago, I reviewed with the student A Kai. He suddenly flipped to a screenshot of a conversation from six months ago, where it clearly stated, 'The account only has a little over 20,000 in liquid funds, sister, am I completely out of chances?' Even the punctuation was filled with despair. But when I turned to look at his current account interface, the number over 140,000 was glaringly bright, and the whole person seemed to have pressed the 'reset button', calm and completely unlike the panicked retail investor from six months ago. In fact, A Kai's experience is a microcosm of 90% of cryptocurrency newbies. When he found me last November, he had already been 'beaten up' by the market: following so-called 'industry big shots' to make heavy bets, blindly entering the market at the sound of price fluctuations, panicking to take profits after a two-point rise for fear of losing gains, and stubbornly holding on through declines without cutting losses. After a year of tossing and turning, the principal was reduced to just a small amount. When talking about the market, his eyes turned red: 'I didn't want to gamble, I just wanted to earn back my principal, is it really that hard?'
From 5,000 to 7 digits in 3 years, I rely on these 3 moves to 'win by lying down' in the crypto market
I've seen too many people staying up late in the crypto market staring at the screen, only to be wiped out by leverage? I entered the market in 2020 with 5000U, never guessed the market direction even once, and often checked my account only every few days. The maximum drawdown of my principal did not exceed 8%, and these three years of stable withdrawals have been enough to buy a new energy vehicle. Don't think it's luck; this 'guaranteed profit system' is the key. First move: Profit-taking method - turn 'floating profits' into 'real money' Before I open any trade, I always lay down a 'safety cushion': setting take-profit and stop-loss orders in advance, never rushing in a fluster. As long as the profit from a single trade reaches 10% of the principal, I immediately withdraw half and put it into a cold wallet - this portion of money is equivalent to 'salary given by the market', regardless of how crazy the subsequent market becomes, it is completely insulated from risk.
The Breakdown Voice at 2 AM: From 10,000 USDT to 150,000, I only made him change 2 habits
Last week at two in the morning, WeChat suddenly popped up with Lao Yang's voice call. The moment I answered, it wasn't a greeting but a trembling voice filled with tears: 'Bro, over 300,000 USDT is down to 10,000... My wife is still sleeping, I'm standing on the balcony, and the wind makes me want to jump off.' Hearing this, I was not surprised. Three months ago, he was the 'big shot' in the group who shared his trades—today chasing after the newly released 'metaverse concept coin' with a full position, tomorrow shouting about 'hundred-fold potential coins' while leveraging, and when it rises by two points, he slaps his thigh and says, 'I want a bicycle to turn into a motorcycle'; if it drops, he just brushes it off with 'holding long-term, not afraid' and toughs it out. I've seen too many cases of people stumbling with this kind of operation treating the crypto market like a casino in my ten years as an analyst.
Late night received a newbie message: "Half of the money is lost," I realized 5 trading rules to survive.
Last Friday at two in the morning, a message popped up in the background with a crying tone: "Teacher, I've only been trading derivatives for half a month, and my capital has been halved. I clearly saw the right direction, but I couldn't bear to cut my losses, and finally held on until liquidation..." Looking at the text on the screen, I instantly remembered myself ten years ago. At that time, I pooled 30,000 with three childhood friends and jumped headfirst into the crypto market. Looking back now, it was a typical "retail investor mentality"—when prices went up, we fantasized about doubling our money; when they dropped, we stubbornly held on for a rebound. In the first two months, we lost money until only 8,000 was left. The guys and I argued in the rented room for a whole night, almost smashing the trading software.
How many times of leverage for perpetual contracts? Senior analyst: Don't bet your principal on 'instant wealth'
The backend messages exploded, and eight out of ten were asking: 'How many times of leverage is appropriate for perpetual contracts?' After 7 years of crypto analysis, from bull-bear transitions to market whims, I have seen too many people fall into this issue—newcomers chasing highs and crying while deleting the software after liquidation, and veterans confidently holding positions only to end up with scraps. Today, I won't beat around the bush; I'll directly throw you the 'life-saving essentials'. Understanding this can help you lose five figures less. First extinguish the fire in your heart: leverage is never a 'get-rich-quick accelerator'; it is a 'double-edged sword'. Used wisely, it can amplify profits, but with a shaky hand, the principal can become the market's 'appetizer'. Especially with perpetual contracts that have no expiration date, it seems like 'if you can hold on, there will be opportunities', but this 'freedom' is precisely the biggest trap—when you make a profit, you want to increase your position and chase more; when you lose, you are reluctant to cut losses and want to hold on for a comeback. Pull the leverage, and greed instantly overshadows risk. By the time you realize it, the account has already turned red to the bottom.
Losing everything in the cryptocurrency market is not due to having little money! I helped my fans recover from huge losses with 3 methods.
Last week, I received a message from my fan Lao Lin with good news: 'Teacher, I've finally made back the 30,000 capital I lost last year!' Looking at the trading records he sent, I remembered the collapsed account he showed me six months ago, which had less than 6,000 left, still stubbornly holding onto positions that had broken support, muttering 'I'll cut losses if it rebounds by 5% more.' After 8 years of struggling in the cryptocurrency market, I've seen too many retail investors like Lao Lin: always attributing their losses to 'too little capital', yet failing to realize that their actions are driven entirely by 'emotion'—betting on rebounds when the market falls, fantasizing about doubling their investments when it rises, turning trading into a gamble like in a casino. In fact, surviving in this market requires a 'survival logic' that is even more important than technical skills. I have three methods that I never share, but today I will share them all with you.
From 2k to 7.5w, I relied on "counterintuitive clumsy moves" to win in the crypto space
Every day, someone in the background asks: "You turned 2100 dollars into 75,000 dollars, what exclusive indicators did you hide?" You might not believe it, but I was so lazy I didn't even bother to draw candlestick charts, just relied on one "clumsy move" to profit from the big waves. The biggest pit for retail investors: it's not a lack of skills, it's "too much fiddling around." In my early years, I was also a "market-watching fanatic," making trades eight times a day, cutting losses when my account was in the red, still grappling with the market at three in the morning. And what was the result? I didn't make any money and turned myself into a high blood pressure reserve. It wasn't until I stumbled that I realized: we retail investors lose because we're "too clever"—always thinking we can predict the direction of the next candlestick, always wanting to "sell at the highest point and buy at the lowest point," and in the end, we are completely led by our emotions.
Investing 100,000 in crypto: Choose 'steady type' or 'aggressive type'? I will only state 3 hard truths.
The backend crashed again. "I just gathered enough principal of 100,000. Should I invest in spot or play with leverage?" I receive seven or eight of these messages every week. It's not that I don't want to provide a definitive answer, but there is no 'standard answer' in the crypto market, only 'adaptable options.' Today, without beating around the bush, I will share the real experiences of two old friends of mine to uncover the underlying logic of these two ways of playing. First, let's look at the 'steady player': Old Chen's 'slow wealth logic.' Old Chen is notoriously known in the circle for being a 'slow-moving person.' He holds mainstream crypto assets and hasn't changed his holding direction for three years. Last year, when the market was at its lowest, the community was filled with wails of 'cutting losses,' but he was fine, regularly posting 'investment screenshots' in the group like it was as casual as buying breakfast.
