In the crypto world, talent and intelligence are actually not the most important. The ones who can truly go far are those who stick to discipline and keep things simple.



I went from 30,000 yuan to 10 million yuan in five years. There’s nothing complicated about black technology; it’s just repeatedly executing a basic set of actions hundreds of times.

My trading framework is very simple—just two words: Pattern, Patience.

I focus on only one candlestick pattern—"N-breakout." The signal looks like this: the price surges sharply first, then slowly retraces but holds the key support, and finally breaks new highs with increased volume. Once this signal appears on the 4-hour chart, that’s my cue to get in.

The rules after opening a position are also brutally simple: cut losses at 2%, take profit at 10%, and exit. If it’s not at these two points, don’t touch the position. Once it hits the line, exit immediately. I don’t pursue a high win rate; even with only a 35% chance of winning, strict risk-reward control allows the account to grow steadily.

But even more important than the trading method is how to manage money.

When profits reached 1.2 million yuan, I withdrew all the initial capital. Later, when the account grew to 6 million, I took half of it to invest in fixed-term financial products. The remaining funds continued to turn in the market to make money. Using profits to fight, rather than risking living funds, is the way to sleep peacefully.

The three bottom lines I follow have helped me get through every market turbulence:
1. Never chase highs: wait for the pattern to complete its full cycle.
2. Never hold onto losing positions: if the price breaks a level, admit defeat and exit.
3. Never be greedy: cash out profits immediately.

There are many opportunities in this market, but what’s truly scarce is the ability to restrain oneself with simple rules. The secret to making big money isn’t catching every wave, but letting go of most temptations so that the few high-probability opportunities can be executed most steadily and fiercely.

Haha, it's another story of going from tens of thousands to millions, I'm tired of hearing it. But this guy's approach of cutting positions at 2% and running at 10% really hit home for me, much more reliable than my previous "wait a bit longer for a rebound" strategies.

To be honest, this set of things sounds simple, but in reality, it can eliminate most people when executed. Just the discipline part alone trips up a bunch of people.

I'm a beginner, here to learn. May I ask, are the 2% and 10% you mentioned referring to spot trading or the leverage multiples for contracts?

That's right, winning comes from discipline; 99% of people fail due to greed. --- The three bottom lines are excellent, especially the one about never holding a position overnight. I’ve fallen for this before. --- Wait, withdraw all at 1.2 million? That mindset must be incredibly strong. --- Pattern recognition plus patience sounds simple but is hell to execute. Persisting for five years is truly the top. --- The key is still the risk-reward ratio. Even with a 35% win rate, you can survive. This logic is definitely sound. --- That's how the crypto world is—people who are straightforward and blunt tend to last the longest. --- The step of taking profits to invest in financial products is crucial; protecting the principal mindset is essential for long-term success.

Whoa, this is the real living Bodhisattva—no acting, no showboating, just pure self-discipline. --- A 35% win rate can still be a win, which shows it's really not luck, but truly having the right mindset. --- I really respect that line: "Use profits to fight, not risking your living capital." That's what it means to be alive. --- The concept of waiting for the right setup sounds simple, but how many can stick to it for five years without wavering? Anyway, I don't have that kind of willpower. --- Damn, withdrawing all 1.2 million at once—this mindset is definitely a hundred times clearer than us gamblers. --- N-pattern breakout sounds not complicated, but can you really recognize it every time in a chaotic chart? How many times do you have to analyze the market? --- Three bottom-line rules sound like a mantra, but each one hits right at our biggest greed points—it's tough. --- It sounds good, but the key is most people can't hold on to that 2% stop-loss and will find all kinds of reasons to hold the position. --- Did they really grow from 30,000 to 10 million through luck, or did they wait it out? Their logic is ridiculously self-consistent. --- I just want to know, is this framework still effective in a bear market, or do we have to accept our fate?
