#数字资产生态回暖 From 5000U to 100,000U—The Logic Behind Tripling Your Investment in Three Weeks



I've heard too many people complain that short-term trading is hard to profit from, but the real issue is never the market itself; it's the trading approach. A friend of mine proved what scientific trading looks like through his own experience. In February this year, he turned 5000U into 100,000U in three weeks—no insider info, no all-in bets, no reckless moves. The entire process was based on sticking to a systematic trading method.

**Start Small, Don’t Be Greedy, Test the Waters with a Portion of Your Capital**

Most people hit a wall right at the start. His first trade used only 20% of his capital (1000U), with 3x leverage to test the market. The benefits are clear: if he lost, his account was still alive; if he gained, he had plenty of room for subsequent moves.

Once the market gave feedback and profits accumulated, he considered adding to his position. But he did so cautiously—when earning 1500U, he only reinvested 500U and lowered leverage to 2x. This isn’t cowardice; it’s using part of the profits to explore, keeping the risk curve in his control. Compared to those who go all-in immediately, who get wiped out if the market suddenly reverses, the difference is huge.

**Patience Leads to Greater Profits**

Last month, BTC traded sideways in a range for two whole weeks. During this time, 99% of traders kept entering and exiting, chasing highs and selling lows, ending up with losses. He? Steady as a turtle, not making a single trade for two weeks.

The real moment to act is when BTC breaks through a key resistance level (for example, breaking above 95000). That’s when to decisively position yourself. Do you understand? Genuine profits never come from daily small fluctuations but from a few critical points. People who trade recklessly every day, with high frequency but tiny profits, end up losing to fees and emotional stress.

**The Liquidation Line Is a Lifeline—Never Touch It**

This is a detail many overlook. When BTC is around 84000, he sets his liquidation line below 76000, leaving himself over 10% safety margin. Why? Even if the market suddenly dips sharply, his account can survive.

In contrast, some traders open positions near support with 5x leverage, only to get a sudden spike and see their accounts wiped out instantly. Why? Because the leverage and liquidation distance are mismatched, leaving no reaction time or correction window.

**Profits Must Go Into Your Wallet**

This is the most crucial step—learning to take profits. After doubling his capital, he withdrew half immediately. When his account hit 100,000U, he took out 80,000U, leaving only 20,000U to continue trading.

What’s the common mistake? Watching the account balance grow and thinking you’ve made real money. But that’s just on paper. The real gain is whether you can transfer it into your bank account or wallet. No matter how big the number in your account, it becomes zero the moment you get liquidated. So, regularly taking profits is the most responsible attitude toward yourself.

**Four Iron Rules—Follow Them, and You’ll Have a Chance**

Summarizing the process into four points:

1. Don’t risk more than 20% of your capital on the first trade; gradually add positions after consistent profits
2. Only engage in high-probability trades; avoid reckless moves
3. Set your liquidation line far enough away—at least a 10% safety buffer
4. Regularly withdraw profits; don’t let paper gains turn into illusions

Understand these four rules, combine them with strong discipline, and you too can become a trader with “tenfold returns.”

**Final Words**

The bull market engine is still gradually starting up; opportunities and risks always coexist. Instead of rushing blindly, learn this steady approach. Slow isn’t bad—turtles may be slow, but they never flip over. With this mindset, you might not be the fastest winner, but you’ll definitely be the one who lasts the longest and earns steadily.

Multiply by 20? The liquidation risk threshold is triggered immediately, brother. This story is a bit too smooth.

That's a good point, but execution is the real issue. Most people understand but still go all-in, waiting to be pierced.

Honestly, this set of logic sounds too perfect, and I'm worried about survivor bias... But I can't deny that being conservative is indeed more sustainable than being aggressive. I'm also learning to cause less trouble.

Basically, it's a mindset issue. Most people simply can't stick to this method.

It sounds good, but the key is that 99% of people simply can't follow through with the second point.
