A friend who has been with me for a long time recently complained to me - obviously the general direction is right, and the rhythm is also accurate, but the account balance seems to be enchanted, and it doesn't go up. If you make a few hundred U, you can't help but fall into the bag, and when you encounter a callback, you will be frightened and immediately clear your position.

I asked him to send the transaction details and flip through them, and only gave two sentences of advice on the spot: stop loss should be more decisive, and take profit should be calmer. Looking at it three months later, the account went directly from 4,000U to more than 50,000, with a net profit of more than 12 times.

To put it bluntly, there is one truth: figure out how much you can lose at most, and then think about "how much you want to earn". Many people plunge into the market headlong, their eyes are full of dreams of doubling, and they don't care where the risk is. It's strange that this style of play doesn't overturn.

**Short-term gameplay: stop loss must be as thin as a blade**

As long as you touch the leverage, the loss tolerance must be kept to a minimum. When I do ETH short-term myself, I focus on a fixed profit point, and once I touch the preset loss line, I immediately retreat, never dragging my feet. Don't underestimate the small profit of dozens of U each time, which accumulates into a stable compound interest basis.

**Medium-term strategy: Let the rules withstand the fluctuations for you**

If you want to eat dozens of points, you have to accept the repeated tossing of you in the middle. mark the key support level as a "lifeline" in advance, and the structure can be held without breaking; When it reaches a high level, cash out part of it first, and use the rest to automatically take care of it with moving take profit. Believe in the rules and don't be led by your own emotions.

**Position control: Resilience is more critical than looking in the right direction**

Taking 3000U to test the waters can be very relaxing, and the mentality of replacing it with 9000U heavy positions will immediately tighten. The heavier the position, the easier it is to be broken by small shocks, and chasing high and killing down all happens at this time. How much loss you can afford is the iron rule that you should match the position.

Stop loss is the "body armor" to protect the principal, and take profit is the "dividend" given by the market. Before opening an order every time, think about where the way out is, and then calculate how much you can earn. There is never a shortage of opportunities in the market, but if you lose all the principal, you will never have a ticket to turn over.

What you lack is never luck or hard work, but a set of trading discipline that will really help you survive and make money.
