In 7 weeks, 3,500 units turned into 150,000. I didn't blow up, nor did I gamble my life.

Earlier this year, a fan in Beijing contacted me: His contract was blown up, leaving him with only 3,500 units, and he was afraid to even open the app. I understand that despair—three years ago, I went from 80,000 to nothing overnight.

He begged me for help. I simply replied with two words:

1. Forget the "get rich quick button"—just follow the trend.

2. Forget "all-in"—always control drawdowns.

It sounds simple, but it's the only way to survive I learned through hardship.

In the first week, I asked him to split the 3,500 units into 10 parts, with a 3% risk per trade, a 2% stop-loss, and a 5% take-profit. He should go short when the market fluctuates; he'd rather miss out than chase a falling knife.

That week, he only made three trades, two wins, and one loss, and his net worth rose to 4,200 units. It wasn't a huge number, but my confidence was back.

Starting from the second week, we only traded trend-following positions, always holding a 20% position, and immediately withdrawing 30% of our profits.

No high leverage, no all-in approach, only discipline and compound interest.

By the fifth week, our account exceeded 30,000 yuan, and for the first time, he proactively said, "It turns out I can win without gambling."

In the sixth week, the market exploded, and many people chased long positions at 50x leverage. We only traded short positions at 10x leverage, cutting our losses at a 1.5% retracement.

Others thought we were timid, but in the end, a long upper shadow occurred, and our short positions yielded a 12% return, bringing our net worth to 54,000 yuan.

In the seventh week, the daily chart retraced to key support, and we took two long positions, holding 15% of our positions, with take-profits at 8%.

Our account remained at 80,000 yuan, and with the profits we had withdrawn previously, the total was just over 150,000 yuan.

Seven followers copied the same trades simultaneously, with the following results:

• Xiao A: 2500U → 18,000, 45 days

• Xiao B: 2800U → 34,000, mainly short

• Xiao C: 10,000 → 186,000, 14 days. After finishing the trade, I turned off my computer and went to sleep.

There are no get-rich-quick myths, only day-to-day risk management and compounding.

The cruelest thing about the cryptocurrency world is: the more you try to move faster, the slower you become; the slower you dare to move, the faster you become.

I spent three years learning to slow down, and now I'm giving this "slowness" to you.

If you're also in a deep pit, don't rush to recover your losses. First, learn how to avoid falling into it again.
