It's not that you can't make money, but you simply don't understand how to protect your profits
Let me say something that hits hard
In this market, the reason 80% of people can't make money isn't because the market is bad, but because their exit strategy is completely wrong
I've seen too many people:
They just made a 10% profit, immediately close the position, afraid that a pullback will wipe out this bit of profit
But when they incur losses, they stubbornly hold on, adding more to their position while comforting themselves that it's a long-term layout
Even more absurd is that they correctly follow the big trend, but are washed out by short-term fluctuations, watching the market fly away
Why does this happen? Because you haven't understood true profit management
Protecting profits isn't about holding on until the last moment, but about turning profits into a bulletproof vest
The method of a master can be summed up in four words: shrink and counterattack
When others panic at the slightest pullback, he instead uses the pullback to add safe chips
When others greedily hold onto floating profits, he knows to take profits in batches, reducing risk to an extremely low level
Let me break down a simple real trading logic for you:
Assume you have a capital of 5000U and are optimistic that ETH will rise
Step one, first take 1000U to build a light position; if the market isn't right, the loss will be minimal
Step two, once you make a 20% profit, take half of the profit off the table, and continue trading with the other half
Step three, if the market pulls back, use the recently taken profits to buy back in batches, rather than touching the principal
Step four, when the market enters an acceleration phase, use profits to chase the final move, but adjust all stop-losses to the breakeven point
This way, the principal is not exposed to high-risk areas throughout the process, yet profits accumulate through each fluctuation
I've used this mindset to make a swing trade, growing from 5000U to 20000U, maintaining a steady mindset the whole time, because even if the market suddenly reverses, I would only lose profits while the principal remains intact
Many people trade like they are running a hundred meters, relying solely on momentum
But those who truly survive are the ones with a marathon pace
The market is never afraid of your sprint; it fears your ability to stay alive and continue to grow
What you want is not to turn everything upside down in one go, but rather to have opportunities where profits feed on profits repeatedly
If you don't want to keep running in place, then join me in planning; the current market is a great opportunity for recovery and doubling your investment.
