Only 3000U left, can I earn 100,000U in a year?
To be honest, I receive such questions almost every day.
But that day I didn’t brush him off, I asked him: Do you really want to turn things around, or do you just want to take a gamble? He replied: I don’t want to gamble anymore, I want to live.
I told him one thing: Okay. But starting today, you must consider yourself a poor person, you must not make a single emotional trade, and you must not gamble your life for luck.
The first step, I asked him to send me a screenshot of his account. I looked at it; there were only a little over 3200U left, and the previous losing trades were numerous, with so many liquidation records that I couldn’t even flip through them. I said: “Fortunately, at least you’ve developed a good habit now — not bottom fishing and going all in.
We started with the most basic small wave arbitrage strategy, only doing one trade a day, not seeking much, only stability, controlling the position within 20%, with a stable daily return controlled at 3~5%, not greedy, not panicking, not gambling.
In the first week, he earned 900U, in the second week the account broke 10,000. In the third week he asked me: Brother, should we double down and make it bigger?
I said: Your mindset is getting inflated again. If you make a mistake at this step, it would be lucky if your account goes back to 3200U.
I paused his trading for three days, forcing him to write a trading review, at least 500 words every day — not about the market, but about emotions, execution ability, and temptation control.
Many people think that turning around relies on opportunities, but in fact, the real opportunity is your self-restraint at the moment you close the position according to the plan.
Three months later, his account reached 36,000U.
At this point, I changed strategies; we no longer frequently made swings, but switched to a two-phase medium-term layout + emotional turning point strategy. I generally wouldn’t teach this to ordinary people.
Because to be honest, most people can’t execute it at all.
By the end of six months, his account balance was 101,900U. I asked him to send me a reconciliation picture, and I left him one sentence.
Turning around is not difficult; what’s difficult is to never make all the mistakes you made before again.
I don’t have any universal secrets, but I know that most people’s 3000U can turn around, but they die from the urge to gamble and disbelief.
He can do it, and so can you, but I don’t teach just anyone.
Because this path relies not on luck, but on cognition + discipline + strategy.
Those who have followed me know that going all in will eventually lead to zero; you are trading, not gambling, seeking stable profits.
