From 1 million to 60,000, and then a comeback: My true path to success
During that time, watching the numbers in my account evaporate bit by bit—1 million, 500,000, 200,000... finally stopping at 60,000.
Insomnia, anxiety, self-doubt, and even thought about uninstalling the exchange app.
But I knew, it was either give up and exit, or use this last 60,000 to fight back.
Three months later, this 60,000 not only came back but also brought profits.
Not by luck, but through these three decisions—
1. First, quit the "gambler's mentality"
I once fantasized about "going all in to break even," but it only resulted in deeper losses.
Later, I realized: the trades that can truly make money are calm mathematical games.
No longer frequent trading
No longer being hijacked by FOMO emotions
Every trade carries a stop-loss; if wrong, admit it
2. Focus on one direction and stick to it
No longer chasing news, no longer changing strategies, no longer believing in "expert calls."
Choose two mainstream coins and refine a high win-rate model:
Clear entry conditions (absolutely no action unless the signal is met)
Fixed position ratio (never go all in)
Mechanical execution (avoid emotional interference)
3. Only engage in "key battles"
80% of the time, the market is in poor conditions.
My strategy is simple:
Stay in cash and wait most of the time
Only strike hard when the trend is confirmed
Exit after capturing enough swings, never become overly attached
Now this method has become my trading instinct:
30 minutes of review every day
Only execute the most certain 1-2 trades
Use profits to compound profits, instead of gambling with the principal
If you are also in a low point, remember:
There are always opportunities in the market, but your principal may only have one last chance.
Either leave completely, or fight back with the correct method—but never gamble again.
