#美联储联邦公开市场委员会决议 A friend with a capital of 3000U turned it into 280,000U in one month. It sounds easy to say, but behind it is actually the consistent implementation of a set of trading disciplines.



In the crypto market, profits come quickly enough to scare you, and losses can come just as fast. I asked him how he's still alive, and he summarized five iron rules, earned through blood losses.

**Rule 1: No Negotiation on Stop-Loss**
When you reach the stop-loss level, exit immediately. Accepting a loss is always more cost-effective than risking a margin call or liquidation. Many people don't lose because of wrong market direction, but because they can't admit when they're wrong.

**Rule 2: Stop Immediately After Five Consecutive Losses**
Continuing to trade recklessly in chaotic markets is asking for death. He will exit after five consecutive wrong trades, giving his mind a day to cool down. Usually, on the second day, he can recover all losses with just one trade. This is to prevent psychological collapse.

**Rule 3: Withdraw Profits Seriously**
Numbers in your account are virtual; if you don't withdraw, it's not real profit. That month, he withdrew nine times, taking half of the 3000U profit each time he made that amount, which stabilized his mentality.

**Rule 4: Only Follow Trends, Avoid Volatility**
In trending markets, using 100x leverage is like printing money. But in choppy ranges, leverage becomes a meat grinder. He prefers to wait four days without trading just for a chance to break through with one big move.

**Rule 5: Limit Single Position to 10% of Capital**
With 3000U, only trade 30U at a time. The same logic applies to 100x leverage. Light positions keep the mind steady, and a steady mind allows for aggressive entries. The crypto market isn't about who has the biggest courage; it's about who has the strongest discipline.

These five rules sound simple, but very few actually follow them. The market tests your resolve every day.

Stop-loss really, it's easy to talk about but deadly to implement. Every time it's like betting that you can break even, and then it crashes directly. Honestly, going from 3,000 to 280,000 sounds absurd, but discipline is indeed a blood and tears account earned with money. If you make five mistakes and then quit, that's the end. Most people make fifty mistakes and still keep struggling. Withdrawal, withdrawal, withdrawal—this guy has understood it. Account numbers are just an illusion. A 100x leverage in volatile markets is truly a death scythe. That's how I lost money...

Stop loss is really a tricky part; it sounds simple but is deadly in practice. Many people have died because they refused to cut their losses... Run after five wrong trades, I support that. Sometimes it's not that you are wrong, but the market is playing with your mind. Smart people know when to admit defeat. The withdrawal process was explained perfectly; those numbers in your account are indeed just dreams. Securing your gains and cashing out is the only thing that counts, otherwise everything is meaningless. When it comes to 100x leverage, it truly is like borrowing a knife to kill. I only trust one sentence. But during volatile periods, using this kind of leverage is playing with fire. Keep a small position, keep a small position, keep a small position—these three words are more important than anything else. The most reckless in the crypto world tend to die the fastest; those with strong discipline are the ones who can survive until the profit-sharing phase.

Exactly right, but the most heartbreaking part is the withdrawal. How many people see 280,000 in their accounts and start dreaming, only to have it all wiped out after a correction. I've seen too many cases like this.

To be honest, I like the stop-loss the most, but I just can't execute it haha. It seems real, but why do I feel like this guy is also living in a story? Run after five wrong attempts, how strong must his self-discipline be... I usually double down after just two mistakes. Only when I realize I made a profit does it count, this is too brilliant, I need to remember it. The phrase "light position, stay calm" I want to tattoo it on my brain. I've heard of the 10% position rule but never really followed it, and now I regret it. Discipline doesn't necessarily mean making more money, but without discipline, you're definitely going to die faster, that's true.

Stop-loss is truly a line of life and death. Many people lose out because they can't bear to admit defeat. Stop after five wrong attempts; this threshold is set perfectly. Otherwise, your mentality would have already collapsed. The habit of withdrawing funds is awesome. Account numbers are indeed illusions; if you don't lock in the gains, it's all pointless. Waiting for the trend to avoid turbulence is easy to say but really hard to do. Most people just can't handle the boredom. Keeping a small position is truly the way to go. When heavily invested, judgment often becomes especially poor.

I have deep experience with stop-losses. I used to be reluctant to cut my losses, only to end up losing everything in one go. The truly profitable traders are those with relentless discipline; having only technical analysis isn't enough. Withdrawal is the most critical part—how many people's accounts look good, only to be wiped out to zero in a single wave. Making five wrong moves and then quitting—that requires incredible self-control. Most people simply can't do it. Trading on leverage during oscillations is just money giving to the market makers. I'm now learning to only trade in trends. Holding small positions can indeed help you survive longer, but the profits are slow. This is a game of risk versus reward.
