A delivery guy, delivering orders in the wind and rain during the day, dragging his tired body back to his rental at night, fears nothing more than his phone ringing in the middle of the night, with the landlord urging him for rent.
His first encounter with trading was listening to people boast in a group chat that Bitcoin could rise by thousands of dollars in a day. Feeling tempted, he took out his saved salary to test the waters. The result was predictable; he made a little profit but got greedy, added to his position, and ended up giving it all back. After a few months, his account had shrunk to the point where he didn't dare to look at it.
He said that at that time, riding his electric bike to pick up orders, his mind was still thinking about the market. He could tolerate delivering to the wrong intersection, but those few minutes of watching the market drop made him extremely anxious.
Later, he added me, and for the first time, he seriously started to learn "trading" instead of blindly gambling based on feelings.
At first, he only had a capital of 500U, which was almost negligible in this market. But he had a quality that I admired: he could endure and control his hands.
I told him to use small positions, and he did; I told him to set stop losses, and he never hesitated; I said to take a break, and he could go a whole day without touching the market. To put it simply, he was much more reliable than those who thought they were smart and wanted to go all in right away.
With this kind of execution, his account grew from 500U to tens of thousands of U. There were no magical secrets to getting rich quickly, just small profits stacked up bit by bit.
Many people complain about the slow pace, but in the market, just surviving is the biggest advantage.
He later told me:
"Bro, I only earn a few bucks for each delivery, and if I fall on a rainy day, it's all for nothing. But now, as long as I focus on opportunities, after a few orders, I can earn the equivalent of my weekly income. I'm not afraid of losing; what I fear is spending my whole life only delivering food."
Now he is still delivering, but his life has completely changed. At the very least, he no longer worries about money for the next month and dares to dream of a future with his girlfriend.
Are there opportunities? There are always opportunities. The difference is that some people are willing to learn and execute, while others just shout scams and remain stuck in place.
The market is never short of opportunities; what it lacks is whether you can control your hands and endure.
A set of correct methods + stable execution is far better than you being busy alone! If you want to turn your life around, you need to catch up quickly.
