At three in the morning, the phone screen was glaringly bright. My brother in Hangzhou sent a voice message that trembled, his smoky voice splitting:

"Bro, I started with 50 as capital and now only have 7 left. I've already pawned my car; if this keeps going, I really have to drive for Didi to pay off my debts!"

I opened his transaction flow, and as a ten-year veteran, I felt my teeth ache: he placed over eighty orders in one day, and the slippage plus fees gnawed away nearly half his position; he dared to go all in on a new cryptocurrency as soon as it launched, and after sleeping, he woke up to find his pool drained; in the middle of the night, he was still battling the 15-second chart, his eyes red as if he had pulled three all-nighters.

This isn’t making money; it’s like digging a pit for oneself with a shovel! I told him: "Want to get ashore? Throw away the shovel and learn to set traps like a hunter; if you swing the hoe randomly, you’ll only bury yourself first."

I threw him three iron rules; three months later, his account bounced back to six figures. Here's the solid advice, grab it if you can.

1. Only gnaw on visible bones

Turn off that flea-like intraday chart and focus on daily and weekly charts. If major support and resistance haven’t been broken, not even the King of Heaven can move me. Only take one shot a day; if your hands are itchy, go play with iron, and let the mouse be taken by the dog. Money is earned by waiting; why rush?

2. Snowball survival method: take half when you profit, run when you lose

Don’t exceed 2% position on your first order; with 10,000 capital, the maximum to invest is 200. This rule is a lifesaver. When floating profit exceeds 30%, take half to secure your gains, and hang onto the remaining half with a stop-loss to protect your capital. Cut losses immediately at 5%; don’t hold onto positions or dream, stop-loss is an oxygen mask, don’t struggle at the bottom of the sea.

3. Rules are more precious than life itself

For every order, write a death note: why enter? Where to cut? At what profit? Was your mind clear at that moment? If you cut two orders in a row, unplug the internet and go downstairs for a bowl of noodles to clear your head.

Review the accounts on weekends; understand how money was lost and how it was made. Don’t be a leek while singing praises for the sickle. The market specializes in fancy tricks and only rewards the patient old hunters.

Ninety days later, that kid sent me a screenshot: the account glaringly shows 120,000! His voice was filled with laughter: "Before, it was purely gambling, treating the K-line as a gold-washing machine."

I replied: "Admitting you were a gambler, this level has been passed; it’s a thousand times better than being a tough duck."

If you’re also staring at a blood-red account in a daze, carve these three rules into your lungs. You can only pull the trigger when you can breathe; what’s there to panic about? Follow @FireBull2025, and I’ll take you to the edge of the knife to lick blood and climb mountains.
