From 4,200U to 68,000U: The Secret Doesn't Lie in Talent but in 3 Disciplines "Against Human Nature"

Many people think that to make money in crypto, you must understand complex techniques, read charts like a master, and know dozens of indicators. But after many years in the market, I realize: the people who make the most money are usually the most disciplined, not the smartest. Not long ago, a friend who had only $4,200 – the last amount after multiple account blow-ups – came to me for advice. I don’t teach technical analysis, nor do I provide buy/sell signals. I only ask him to strictly follow 3 principles, without exception. One month later, his account had grown to $68,000. 👉 Today, I share these 3 principles with you — simple, easy to understand, but extremely difficult to follow because they go completely against human instincts.

1. Never Full Margin or All-in: Position Management Comes First Before the market shows a clear trend, only use 10–20% of your capital to experiment. If the market moves in the right direction → gradually increase your position. If the market is wrong → stop immediately, lose small, exit early. 80% of losses come from impatience: Entering without signals Buying on good news and going full margin Doubling position as soon as slightly profitable Just one price reversal can wipe out the account. Position management is your insurance.
2. Never Average Down on Losing Positions – Only Increase When Winning When I tell you “You must not add funds when you are losing,” you might not understand: “Reduce then buy more at a cheaper price, why not?” I reply: Adding to a losing position means pouring more money into a wrong decision The more you buy, the deeper you sink → even a slight recovery won’t save you Most blown accounts start from a single losing trade “kept alive” for too long Conversely, when you’re winning, the market confirms your correct choice: Add to winning trades Follow your stop-loss management Let profits grow naturally That’s how accounts grow like a “snowball.”
3. Follow the Trend – Do Not Fight the Market Always remember this rule: The market is stronger than you. The market doesn’t care what you think. You only have two choices: Follow the trend → survive Fight the trend → lose money Human instinct is to “catch the bottom – predict the top.” But in reality, most tops and bottoms are only visible after… they happen. My friend transformed because he only did one thing right: Not pretending to be smarter than the market. When the market rises, he follows the rise. When the market falls, he stays out or shorts in rhythm. Do not fight the flow. Conclusion: Discipline Creates Results – Not Luck My friend’s move from $4,200 to $68,000 wasn’t because of exceptional skill but because: He controls emotions when others FOMO He waits for clear signals instead of rushing into trades He cuts losses quickly instead of hoping He keeps profitable positions instead of panicking Crypto is not as hard as you think. The hardest part is winning over yourself. Opportunities are always present, but only disciplined people can seize them.
