From 1200U to 90,000U: He Almost Exited the Market, But I Pulled Him Back
Half a year ago, an old friend reached out to me. He had been in the crypto space for several years, experiencing all the ups and downs, but just couldn't control himself and always wanted to take a gamble.
At that time, his account had only 1200U left.
He had previously rolled over his principal slowly, reaching over 40,000 at one point, but unfortunately, when his mindset broke, he aggressively chased after rising prices multiple times, and ended up losing everything down to this little amount.
During that period, he was completely lost:
Not answering his phone, disappearing from group chats, staying locked up in his rented room every day.
I knew it wasn't that he lacked ability, but rather that his mindset had been shattered.
I took the initiative to contact him and said just one thing:
"You can turn things around, but this time don’t act recklessly, just listen to me."
Thus, we began this comeback journey.
Starting with an account of 1200U, the goal was not to get rich quickly, but to steadily bring the situation back under control.
Step One: Recognize Reality, No More Fantasies of Recouping Losses
I told him: "You haven’t lost tens of thousands, but you still have the opportunity of 1200 left.
View this small amount of money as a new starting point; otherwise, you'll eventually blow up again."
Step Two: Small Position Rolling, Split Funds into Three Portions
Only use 1/3 of the capital for each trade, set strict loss limits, and gradually roll over profits.
The advantage of this approach is that even if the direction is wrong, you can quickly adjust, preventing total loss.
Step Three: Strict Discipline, Maximum of Two Trades Per Day
No letting emotions take over, no adding to positions on a whim, and every trade must clearly state the logic behind it.
Cut losses, take profits, and avoid making fantasy trades.
After sticking to this for a full 45 days, his account grew from 1200U to 90,000U.
During this time, the market was very volatile, and many people jumped in only to be washed out, while he became increasingly stable, remaining calm even when facing a few thousand in drawdowns.
One time he told me:
"Before, I was afraid of losses, but now I know that losing is just part of the rhythm.
Because I have the method in hand, I can earn it back again."
A true comeback is not just about doubling the capital, but about completely rebuilding mindset and discipline.
