In the crypto world, the worst fear is not losing money, but losing it all and still being unwilling to give up.
Let me tell you a true story: a fan of mine, Xiao Zhao, chased the market during last year's bull run, making impulsive trades and getting liquidated three times, losing a total of 300,000. He was so frustrated he wanted to quit. At the beginning of the year, he had only 2000 USDT left and he came to me asking one question: "Can I still turn things around?"
I said, "Yes, but you have to listen."
The first thing we did was not to open a position immediately, but to take three days to review his past losing trades. I had him write down the reasons for each loss.
You’d be surprised; many people fail without even knowing how they failed.
Next, we implemented a "rolling position plan"—not gambling, not going all in, but using a three-stage layout.
In the first stage, we only took low-leverage trend-following positions, securing a solid base. We managed to increase his 2000 USDT to 4300 USDT in 12 days while keeping daily profits controlled at 3%-5%.
In the second stage, we started to slightly increase the position size, looking for key support and resistance areas to capture swings, with stop losses on every trade. If a trade went wrong, we exited without hesitation. Within two weeks, the account grew to 9200 USDT.
In the third stage, we only took two major trades, picking a wave of the main uptrend. We did thorough homework before entering and set staggered take-profit points. I guided him throughout, steadily capturing mid-term profits. On the last day of settlement, the account reached 15,200 USDT.
He recovered his losses and even had a little profit.
But the key point is not the money; it’s that he finally understood something: getting rich is a process, not just a reckless all-in after a liquidation, but a planned and rhythmic path to recovery.
I can’t say whether this method is suitable for everyone, but those who can stick to it are truly few.
If you can’t sleep because of losses, maybe you can try a different approach and stop relying on gut feelings to trade.
In a volatile bull market, if someone is showing you the way, don’t step on landmines yourself!
