š„ I Turned 40x Profit Into Almost Nothing ā Hereās What I Learned
8 years of crypto trading, and nothing was crazier than 2017.
Back then, I bought ADA at $0.03.
Just three months later, it exploded to $1.20.
My profit was almost 40x.
Every morning I woke up and checked
how many more zeros my account got.
I even started thinking about buying a Porscheā¦
But I didnāt sell.
Later, ADA fell to $0.20.
80% of profit was gone.
The Porsche turned into a second-hand BYD.
Thatās when I learned the deepest truth in crypto:
š Anyone can buy. Only masters know how to sell.
---
šÆ Take-Profit Strategy
I use staggered take-profit.
Example:
From $1 ā $2, I sell 30% to recover cost.
At $3, I sell another 30%.
Remaining 40% has a 15% trailing take-profit.
This lets me capture the main trend
without watching charts all day.

ā Iron Stop-Loss Rule
š A single loss must NOT exceed 5% of total capital.
If I invest $10,000, I stop-loss at $500.
Always.
After buying, I immediately set a -10% stop-loss with conditional orders.
Itās like wearing a seatbelt in trading.
Opportunities will always come.
But when your principal is gone, itās gone.

š£ Stop Chasing the Tail
I discovered something counterintuitive:
š Lower your profit target.
Everyone wants to sell at the highest point,
but ends up missing the best point.
Now I only aim to catch the body of the fish,
and leave the tail for others.
With this mindset, I made a stable 35% this year.

š” Final Thought
In the past 10 years, Iāve seen countless stories of overnight wealthā¦
but more stories of people losing everything.
The winners are not the lucky ones ā
they are the disciplined ones.
Once I stopped out of a trade.
The coin doubled, friends laughed at me.
But 3 months later, that coin went to zero.
š In crypto, staying alive is more important than getting rich fast.
I used to walk in darkness.
Now, the light is in my hands.
