Bull market at the end, I still had over 800,000 in my account. That night, after seeing some good news, I got impulsive and went all-in on a long position. Within a few hours, the market crashed. When the margin call popped up, I was stunned, thinking how could this happen.

What happened next was even more painful. I kept trying to recover losses, but the more I tried, the worse I got. In less than a month, my account was wiped out. That’s when I finally understood a truth: passion has no place in the crypto world.

Every day, I watched the K-line, hoping this time I could turn things around. But just as it started to rebound, it was pulled back down again. My account kept shrinking, and my confidence was drained. From having savings to losing everything, from holding onto hope to doubting life, I used to think I was just unlucky, but the real problem wasn’t luck. I finally realized: in crypto, it’s not about risking everything, but about rhythm.

The real turning point was when I started making a change: abandoning predictions, focusing only on rhythm.

No longer chasing the market, no guessing highs and lows. I developed a method called the "Structural Rolling Strategy." It sounds complicated, but the core is simple: don’t watch the charts obsessively, don’t rely on luck, and execute based on rhythm and planning.

This approach is quite "dumb": no betting on one-sided moves, no trades without signals, no greed. But because it’s simple enough, I make 2-3 steady trades a day, with an average profit between $2,100 and $4,500. The key is, this isn’t gambling; it’s accumulated through efficient trading.

A few people I mentored started with modest amounts but achieved results. One grew from $1,500 to $22,000 in less than 20 days; another, a regular worker, only traded 3 hours at night each day, and in half a month, netted $12,000. These aren’t special cases—just the right method.

Later, I summarized it into one sentence: retail traders don’t lack trading skills, they’re just too impatient. Impatient to double their money, impatient to recover losses, impatient to prove themselves. The more impatient, the more chaotic, and the faster they lose. Just like Solana’s recent surge—many saw the rise and rushed in, only to be shaken out by a correction.

Now, I focus on four things:

First, only trade when the market enters the rhythm zone—no chasing, no rushing, no riding the wave.

Second, plan your position size in advance, diversify risk across each trade.

Third, have a contingency plan for every trade—set stops quickly and don’t hesitate.

Fourth, even the strictest plan must be executed rigorously—don’t let emotions interfere with judgment.

It all sounds simple, but few can truly stick to it. Honestly, in crypto, the biggest fear isn’t not knowing how to trade, but losing control of yourself.

If during trading your heartbeat speeds up, and you’re thinking whether the next trade can turn things around or whether to gamble again, you’ve already lost. Don’t expect to get rich from one single trade. The traders who last long have done one thing: keep calm and find the right rhythm.

If you’re still frequently taking losses and letting emotions dominate your trading, it’s not a technical problem, but a sense of direction issue. Calm your mindset first, and the method will come naturally.
