Some people hold 50,000 and spend four years doing one thing: buying Ethereum on dips, selling a portion when it reaches their target, and repeating the cycle, gradually growing their account from tens of thousands to millions.
There are also those who only have 20,000, chasing trends every day and playing with high leverage. With good luck, they can multiply their money several times in a day; with bad luck, they can lose everything in half an hour.
I know a friend who started in 2019, only buying mainstream coins and avoiding leverage. When the market is bad, he still invests regularly; when the market is good, he sells in batches according to plan. After four years, his returns are steady and enviable.
Another friend has top-notch contract skills, quick reactions, and accurate judgments, turning 5,000 into 100,000 in a week. But he has also gone through three liquidation events and is still back at square one.
Spot trading may not be flashy, but it is stable; contracts are exciting, but if not handled well, they can feel like a roller coaster.
If you still have some capital and want to survive in the market a bit longer, don’t put all your bets on one strategy. Many seasoned traders who actually make money focus on accumulating spot assets and complementing them with swing contracts, so when the market moves, they can reliably capture significant profits.
However, if you can’t even bring yourself to set a stop-loss and panic at market fluctuations, it’s better to stick to spot trading, first learn how to survive in the market, and then talk about getting rich.
The market is still brewing. If you don’t understand how to play yet, that’s okay; let’s quickly plan together, and I’ll clearly arrange your positions for you!
