During the recent market downturn, my account shrank by 600,000. Every night I couldn’t sleep until dawn, social media was wiped clean, family members disapproved, and friends avoided me when we met. The hardest time was when I didn’t dare to open the app—just thinking about the small balance in my account made my heart race as if it was about to burst, and I was stuck in a hopeless quagmire, unable to move.

The turning point came from a single sentence: " Losing money is just the beginning; misplaced steadfastness is what buries you." It was like someone pulled me out of drowning—my mind suddenly became clear.

I summoned the courage to face my account again, treating the remaining 3500U as my last ticket. Not to go all-in and gamble my luck, but to reflect thoroughly, admit my mistakes, and restart from zero, learning anew.

That’s when I finally realized that the previous loss of 600,000 wasn’t bad luck at all—it was my complete lack of understanding of trading: no stop-loss awareness, full position scaling, blindly following trends, frequently swapping coins, and ineffective position management... To put it bluntly, I was either trading or rolling dice in a casino.

Since then, I’ve only been fixated on one thing: sticking to incremental position adjustments, treating discipline as a religious belief.

Divide the funds into two lines: defensive position (steadfast and unmovable), offensive position (careful trial entries);
Only trade when the market trend is clear—if you don’t understand it, wait; never chase after a losing position;
Take profits when each trade earns 5%-10%, and be decisive—don’t hold onto the last line;
Place stop-loss orders in advance—if wrong, cut quickly, leaving no room for illusions;
When market signals aren’t clear enough, better to sit idle and daydream than make unnecessary moves.

In the first week, 3500U became 5200U.
In the second week, it broke 10,000.
By the sixth week, the account grew to over 50,000.

That night I turned off my computer and sat in silence for half an hour—not because I was happy about how much I earned, but because for the first time, I truly believed I could climb out of the pit.

I don’t have any extraordinary skills or inside information—just a set of "foolproof" steady routines: no reckless rushing, no heavy-handed moves, a calm mindset, only trading what I understand.

Now, with so many people losing money in the market, the root cause is one word: "chaos"—chaotic operations, chaotic mentality, more chaotic rhythm, turning trading into a headless fly constantly crashing around.

You don’t need to be overly smart; key is to stay stable and disciplined—small capital can still turn around.
