Last summer, a female fan added me, her voice filled with tears, "Teacher, I lost 300,000 U in crypto trading and only have 10,000 U left. I feel like I can never turn my life around again." Even through the screen, I could feel her despair.
Looking at her trading records, they were full of common pitfalls for beginners. She chased after coins when they skyrocketed, hoping for a rebound after they fell, and impulsively went all-in without a plan. I didn't rush to give her trading advice; I just told her to stop for a week, calm down, and review all her losing trades.
A week later, she messaged me explaining that she had figured out the key reasons for 90% of her losses: she couldn't control her hands and was always driven by impulse without any discipline, never truly executing stop-losses.
To address these two points, I told her to set two strict rules: each trade's loss must not exceed 5%, and if her total loss for the day reaches 10%, she must stop immediately, even if there are better opportunities later.
Next, I taught her a strategy for steady profits, only opening trades at key support or resistance levels for mainstream coins like BTC and ETH, with stop-losses precisely set 1.5% outside these key levels. She should never take chances; as long as a single trade makes 5%, she should withdraw her principal and leave only the profits for speculation. This way, even if she incurs losses later, her principal remains untouched.
Finally, I gave her a little trick: from her 10,000 U, she should take 2,000 U to diversify into three smaller coins. But these should not be chosen randomly; they must meet two conditions: first, on-chain data must show that large holders are still holding and haven't run away; second, the supply of that coin on the exchange should be continuously decreasing, which usually signals that funds are quietly accumulating in preparation for a price increase.
Unexpectedly, five months later, she excitedly came to share the good news, not only recovering the 300,000 U loss but also making an additional 50,000 U. In fact, in the crypto world, 10,000 U has never been a dead end. 99% of people fall into the obsession of wanting to recover their losses too quickly, thinking they can make a big comeback, only to end up losing even more. Ultimately, trading crypto is not about who makes money fast, but who survives the longest. @孟佳实盘带单
