When I lost 1 million, I was really going crazy. LUNA went to zero, and my account dropped from a high point overnight to only 30,000 U.
I sat in front of the screen for half an hour without moving, my mind blank. At that moment, I understood; I didn’t seek to change my fate, but first, I needed to secure my life.
I started playing with rolling positions. Others said it was high-risk, but I insisted on it.
In 6 months, I rolled 30,000 U into 1,570,000, with nothing else, just following a set of strict rules.
The first order should not exceed 10%, I put in 3,000 U, if I lost 150, I cut it off; if anyone advised me to wait, I would block them.
Only rolling profits, I would immediately withdraw the principal once I made money. It was that ruthless, that stable.
During the ETH rebound, I rolled four waves; I made 900 on the first wave, increased my position to 1,350 and continued to trade. Each wave was profit added to the position, without touching the principal; even if it blew up, I wouldn’t feel sorry.
The key was the rhythm of adding positions in the third wave; if I made a mistake once, there would be no follow-up.
Many people can't turn things around not because they don't know how to trade, but because they are afraid to take profits. They panic as soon as they make money, and when it pulls back, they exit; profits never grow big.
I learned to be smart about taking profits too. When FTX collapsed, I stood firm at 370,000 U, unwilling to exit; it dropped back to 120,000 in a day, that pain was worse than liquidation.
Now I only talk about discipline; every time it rises by 15%, I move the stop-loss up by 12%. Once the trend breaks, I run immediately, never lingering.
I don’t play strategies or techniques; I only believe in one thing: use profits to seek profits, use rules to preserve life.
Can this set of rules be learned? Yes, but you need to be cold-blooded, not greedy, able to cut losses, push up, and hold on tight.
Those who lose always fantasize about turning things around with the next trade, but they end up being the opposite side of my liquidation back then.
The crypto world never rewards sentimentality, only rewards those who execute well.
You might be stuck in that 30,000 U state right now,
and my current position might just be the place you can reach if you push yourself a little harder: $BTC
