From losing 3 million to recovering bit by bit with 3500U
That year in the bear market, I was really going crazy, losing nearly 3 million. My heart raced every day while watching the market, and at night I couldn't sleep, with my eyes closed seeing my account plummeting. I didn't want to post on social media, didn't want to reply to messages, feeling like I had completely collapsed.
The hardest part was that no one could understand what I had been through. My family thought I was gambling, friends started avoiding me, and I began to doubt if I was a complete joke.
I almost accepted it, really.
Until I came across a saying that went, 'No matter how much you lose, it’s just the beginning. Holding on is the end.' This phrase truly awakened me.
Looking back at my previous operations, to be honest, they were all wrong. Randomly throwing money in, not cutting losses, following trends, betting on emotions, frequently changing coins... I wasn’t trading at all, I was risking my life.
When my account was down to 3500U, I set a rule for myself: no more gambling, just steadily follow the rhythm, even if it’s slow, as long as I don’t blow up, there is hope.
At that time, I started rolling over my funds, dividing my capital into two parts, one for defense and one for offense, focusing on a few coins I was most familiar with for short-term trades, with small targets, making 5% or 10% per trade. If I made a profit, I would run; if I lost, I would cut it off, without hesitation or nostalgia.
In the first week, it rose to over 5000, in the second week over 8000, and by the sixth week, my account had over 40,000.
I still remember that night, I turned off the screen, did nothing, just sat there staring blankly,
Not out of joy, but that feeling of 'I really came back to life,' it was so heart-wrenching.
To be honest, many people ask me how I rolled over and how I did it, but I can’t explain too much. One is that the rhythm is too detailed, and two is that even if I say it, not everyone will truly absorb it.
But I can tell you, turning around with a small amount of capital is really not a myth, the premise is that you can withstand it and you can change.
The market always offers opportunities,
It’s just a matter of whether you can restrain yourself, not be soft-hearted, not fantasize, and diligently follow through.
