Let me tell you a true story about a fan of mine, Xiao Zhao. Last year, during the bull market, he chased highs and cut losses, resulting in three contract liquidations and losing a total of 30,000. He was so frustrated that he wanted to quit. At the beginning of the year, he only had 2000u left, and he came to me asking, 'Can I still turn it around?'
I said: 'Sure, but you have to listen.'
The first thing we did was not to open a position immediately, but to pause for three days and review his past losing trades. I had him write down the reasons for each loss.
You wouldn't believe it, but many people die in places they don't even realize are dangerous.
Next, we implemented a 'rolling position plan', which was not gambling or all-in, but a three-stage layout.
In the first phase, only low-multiplication trend-following trades were made to stabilize the basic capital. We managed to increase 2000u to 4300u in 12 days, controlling daily profits at 3%-5%.
In the second phase, we started to slightly increase the position size, looking for key support and resistance zones to trade swings. Each trade had a stop-loss; if wrong, we withdrew without attachment. In two weeks, the account reached 9200u.
In the third phase, we only made two major trades, selecting a main upward wave. Before entering, we did our homework, set tiered take-profit points, and throughout the process, I guided him to maintain the rhythm, steadily capturing mid-stage profits. On the last day of settlement, the account was 15200U.
He broke even, and even had a bit of surplus.
But the focus is not on money; rather, he finally understood one thing: getting rich quickly is a process, not a high-stakes gamble after a margin call, but a planned and rhythmic path to recovery.
I can't say whether this method is suitable for everyone, but very few can stick with it.
If you can't sleep because of losses, maybe you can change your perspective and stop relying on feelings to trade.
In a bull market, there are many ups and downs. If someone is guiding you, don't step on the mines yourself!
