Dare to trade. Dare to win.
The rise from 30,000 U to 200,000 U does not stem from some genius operation, but rather from genuinely slowing down the pace and reassessing the trading methods.
Once, I also believed that making money in the cryptocurrency market mainly relied on luck. I would follow the hype around which coin was popular and which community was vocal, rushing in based on news. I would increase my holdings when profitable and hold on when losing. As a result, my account was like a roller coaster, doubling today and going to zero tomorrow. Emotions fluctuated greatly, trading rhythm was chaotic, and ultimately, losses far exceeded gains.
The real turning point came when the account had only 30,000 U left. At that time, the market was highly volatile, and emotions were leading the way every day. But it was precisely then that I realized: if I continued like this, I would only exit prematurely.
So, I decided to completely change my trading approach: no gambling, no blindly following trends, no impulsive actions, and first stabilize myself.
First, I reduced the frequency of my trades and abandoned the greedy idea of "participating in every fluctuation." I only focus on clear trends and no longer get involved in ambiguous consolidation areas. When the market is unclear, I prefer to stay out of positions and observe, only cautiously entering when a clear opportunity arises. From originally making dozens of trades every day, I changed to only three or four times a week.
Secondly, I have restructured the position management logic. Each trade uses a maximum of 15% of the total capital, and stop-loss is strictly enforced. Once the stop-loss point is reached, exit immediately without stubbornly holding on or making temporary changes to the plan. Even if I get washed out by the market, it is much better than a complete liquidation.
Finally, I started to keep trading records and reviews. For each trade, regardless of profit or loss, I recorded in detail the reasons, entry and exit points, and changes in emotions. Over time, I discovered that the biggest losses were often not due to wrong judgments, but rather due to violating the rules I had set for myself. Although this process is tedious, it helped me clarify the overall trading rhythm.
In this way, the funds rose from 30,000 U to 60,000 U, then to 100,000 U, and finally exceeded 200,000 U. This is not achieved through one-off windfall profits, but relies on a set of robust trading mindset. There were also mistakes and hesitations during this period, but the overall direction became increasingly clear.
I no longer chase "what coins everyone is discussing"; I now focus solely on the market structures and rhythms that I can understand. My account has finally shed the anxiety and has become stable, controllable, and rhythmic.
A correct method, sustained and stable execution, along with good team guidance rhythm, is far better than exploring alone. For those who wish to achieve success in the market, understanding and practicing this method is crucial.
