What does it feel like to lose 100,000 in the crypto world?

A guy told me: "Back then, I was watching the market to the point of wanting to vomit, and even dreaming about being liquidated while sleeping."

He originally worked in e-commerce, and last year the market was highly volatile. At first, he made a little profit, but then faced several waves of market reversals, and the more he lost, the more he wanted to chase trades, ultimately losing 100,000 USDT cleanly. His account was left with only 5,000 USDT, physically at Binance but mentally in the ICU.

At the start of this year, he found me and said he didn’t want to gamble anymore; he just wanted to steadily turn things around. I said: sure, but the premise is that you really listen to advice and follow the plan.

In the first phase, we locked in positions, controlling them to 30% of total capital, only doing low buys during the day, not chasing highs, and not holding onto losing positions. One principle: it's okay to earn a little, but you must never lose big.

After a dozen days, he slowly rolled his 5,000 USDT up to 150,000.

In the second phase, we started doing two-way rolling positions, watching shorts at high levels and longs at low levels. We looked for cryptocurrencies that oscillated back and forth but had enough volatility, making around 100 USDT each time and slowly accumulating. After about 20 days, his account broke 30,000.

In the third phase, we caught this main downward wave. We ambushed in advance, gradually increasing positions, capturing the entire trend, and the profits exploded directly, with the final account settlement at 100,000 USDT, just enough to turn things around.

He told me at that time: "I've seen this method before, but I just couldn’t manage to practice 'restraint' before."

Getting through this journey didn’t rely on luck; it was all about planning, rhythm, and patience. A real turnaround is never about winning back everything in one go, but rather whether you can endure your emotions, control your positions, and stick to execution.

I won't talk about those mystical indicators, nor will I discuss any 'guaranteed profit' tricks. What can truly save you is not the techniques, but whether you can break free from the trading habits formed during your previous losses.

As for how we did it, which cryptocurrencies are suitable for rolling, and which rhythm is the most stable, we could talk about that for a whole day and night.
