At the moment 99% of people open the Binance trading app, they have only one thought in their mind: making money.
I am too.
During the most frenzied week of the 2017 bull market, I first deposited ETH into the exchange, using 15x leverage, and was liquidated in 15 minutes. That day, I realized: making money in the crypto world is harder than getting a full scholarship at Tsinghua or Peking University.

Later, people in the group were leaving every day:
The contract is too thrilling; my heart can't take it.
I have lost all my tuition money; I must first survive.
They got off like the subway arriving at a station, and the vacant spots were quickly filled by new IDs.
Newcomers bring the airdrop they just received, new 125x leverage, and new 'financial freedom' screenshots, injecting the next wave of adrenaline into the market.
The on-chain candlesticks have not changed, the underlying human nature has not changed, only a new batch of account addresses.

What remains are those who cut themselves.
The first step to cutting losses: acknowledge that the market is unpredictable.
You can fill the screen with indicators like RSI, MACD, on-chain data, TVL, and Federal Reserve rates, but the next one-minute spike can still throw you out.
The real opponent is not the market maker, nor CZ, but the pair of red eyes inside your screen.

So I wrote three 'on-chain military regulations' for myself, and I also give them to you:
① Write the 'tombstone' before placing an order: stop-loss price, take-profit price, and conditions for moving stop-loss. Write them all into the exchange's trigger order, giving yourself no chance to click the mouse again.
② Single loss ≤ 2% of account net value, if daily loss ≥ 6%, shut down immediately. Shutting down is not admitting defeat; it's cutting off emotional power.
③ Open a position only once a week. Spend the rest of the time doing three things: reviewing, exercising, and spending time with family. Reducing 'trading frequency' can increase 'cognitive density.'
(5)
The essence of these three rules is to use certainty to hedge against uncertainty.
You don’t know if there will be hawkish statements from the Federal Reserve tonight, nor do you know which tweet will crash DOGE, but you can be sure:
When the stop-loss is triggered, you can afford to lose;
When the market runs in the opposite direction, you can still sleep;
When opportunities arise, you still have your capital.
(6)
Many people see stop-loss as 'cost,' but I see it as 'ticket.'
A ticket to the next game.
If you can’t even afford the ticket, you can only watch others pass the levels from the sidelines.
Stop-loss taught me: impermanence is not a bug; it’s the default setting in the blockchain world.
Since impermanence is unavoidable, let it happen in the most controllable position.
(7)
Someone asked: Will this cause me to miss out on a hundredfold coin?
Yes.
But think about it, the people who really made a hundredfold in the past 10 years didn’t rely on 125x leverage, but on:
Spot + Long Cycle + Off-exchange Cash Flow + A heart that remains as steady as a mountain.
Treat 'missing out' as normal and 'surviving' as strategy, and you will find yourself starting to make money.
(8)
In the end, trading is about writing your understanding of the world into lines of code, which are automatically executed on-chain.
If you believe in decentralization, then put your assets into self-custody wallets in batches;
If you believe in cycles, write Bitcoin halving in your calendar;
If you believe in human nature, treat the fear and greed index as a contrarian indicator.
When these beliefs are validated by the market, you will have a ticket machine that no one can take away from you.
(9)
So, don’t rush.
In the crypto world, one day is equivalent to a year in the real world; this refers to volatility, not speed.
The real fast route is to slow down.
Slow down so that every order has a source, and every stop-loss has a script.
So slow that you can still turn off the lights and fall asleep while inserting needles in the deep night.
(10)
If your fingers are still trembling, close the app and run three kilometers.
If your heart rate is still over 100 when you come back, reduce your position to 0.
When you empty your mind, you create space for thoughts to grow.
The market is always there, neither increasing nor decreasing;
But your principal, you only have once.
(11)
Finally, set this sentence as the group announcement:
The market goes its own way, and I do mine.
I won’t predict the next candlestick; I will only execute my on-chain military regulations.
Embrace an uncertain future with certain rules.
I wish you restraint, I wish you calmness, and I wish you still being present in the next bull market.
If you think the above 11 military regulations are not specific enough and want to copy the homework directly, you can follow @小花生说币
I don’t call trades; I only sync my own positions, stop-losses, and take-profits with you.
You can sleep even if you close the app because I am monitoring the market for you.
The market is ruthless, but trading has companions.
