This is not about showing off profits; I just want to clarify what I've learned over the past three years.

Three months ago, I brought in a girl who had never touched trading before with an initial capital of 1200U. Yesterday, she sent me a screenshot of her account, with a net value of 51,200U, and the entire process had zero liquidation. You might think how lucky she is, but actually she was doing the three simplest things I’ve been repeating for three years.

**The first is risk diversification, not diversification of coins.** Divide the principal into three parts in a 4:4:4 ratio—400U for intraday short-term trading, one order per day, stop when needed, no adding positions or watching the market; 400U waiting for major weekly-level trends, rest if no signals, enter when signals appear; 400U frozen in the wallet, I hold the keys, and as long as there’s no real liquidation, she refuses to move it. To put it simply, many people lose because they go all-in, but she left herself a way out.

**The second is only trading trends, and lying flat otherwise.** How to judge? If the 4-hour moving average doesn’t tilt upward at an angle exceeding 30°, don’t look at it. Once the trend is established, when profits reach 20% of the principal, withdraw 30% to your bank card—only the actual cash is profit; the numbers on the screen are illusions. When idle, just relax, go for a run if you’re itchy, don’t gamble in choppy markets.

**The third is to set strict trading rules to eliminate emotional interference.** Three ironclad rules posted on the monitor: close all positions automatically if loss reaches 2%, and after cutting, shut down the computer and don’t look at how bad the rebound is; when profit hits 4%, close half the position, and let the rest follow a trailing stop; never add to a losing position—mistakes are mistakes. I won’t let her tear them down.

After three months, she invited me for milk tea, saying her biggest change was finally being able to sleep soundly. Compared to those who are scared by a few tens of dollars’ fluctuations, whose hearts race when opening positions, and who regret their guts out after closing, what they truly lack isn’t a hundredfold coin, but a manual that locks in risk. The biggest danger in the crypto world is chaos, not slowness. Avoid three years of unnecessary detours; the value gained is even greater than tripling your principal.
