When I first took his consultation, the voice on the other end was filled with exhaustion, almost breaking down: "After three consecutive liquidations, only a fraction of the 3000U is left, if I lose again, I will completely leave the crypto space."
I could feel his despair even through the screen, but no one expected that 41 days later, he sent a screenshot of his account — the balance clearly showed 36,000 U, without adding a penny of principal, relying entirely on profit reinvestment, gradually rebuilding the confidence that had been shattered before.
I didn't talk to him about complicated technical strategies or deep trend analysis, but first set three strict rules that he must not break: profits must withdraw a portion, never leave it in the account as 'virtual'; absolutely do not hold positions overnight to avoid sudden fluctuations in the early morning; as soon as losses reach preset levels, cut the position immediately, no holding.
At that time, he was half-convinced, his tone filled with helplessness: 'I've heard enough principles before, but I'm still losing.' I didn't argue much, just said: 'Try a round first, if it doesn't work, it's not too late to leave.'
In the first round of operations, he chose BTC and used 30% of his position to enter according to the rules. When the profit reached 13%, I told him to withdraw a portion immediately to a cold wallet.
After half an hour, he sent a message: "For the first time, I feel that the money is mine, not just numbers that could disappear from the market at any moment." This step actually helped him get rid of the shadow of "profits are all floating profits" and rebuild trust in trading.
During the second round with ETH, we entered the market in two phases, and when the profit reached 26%, he sent a voice message, sounding much more relaxed: "I just watched the market fluctuate up and down, and my heartbeat was actually normal, I used to panic a lot."
What impressed him most was the third round of BCH short positions. Just before sleeping, we set stop-loss and take-profit together, and he was still worried about unexpected situations. The next day he woke up to find his account had increased by 1800U. He immediately sent a red envelope, which I refused, only telling him: "Now keep the discipline, you can earn much more in the future."
In the next 31 rounds of operations, he strictly followed this rhythm: a maximum of 30% for each position, never over-leveraging; as long as there is profit, withdraw a portion first to secure it; once a loss touches the line, cut the position without hesitation.
The most dangerous time, a single position had already floated to 5400U, he couldn't help but want to wait a bit longer, hoping to earn more. I told him to take profit immediately, he gritted his teeth and did it, and three minutes later the market suddenly plummeted.
He said with a sense of fear: "Fortunately, I listened to you, otherwise this wave would have lost again." Since then, he changed his community nickname to "Discipline Dog" to constantly remind himself to follow the rules.
In the past three months, 30 fans who followed this set of rules successfully doubled their accounts: some increased from 2200U to 13000U, some used the money they earned to pay off debts, and others no longer had to rely on "gambling on the market" to live.
In fact, there are no exclusive secrets, just suppressing the impulse of "taking it for granted" and executing "what needs to be done" to the end.
Many people lose in the crypto space not because they don't understand technology, but because they can't control their hands — always thinking 'waiting a bit longer can earn more', always hoping 'a larger position can recover quickly', always relying on the luck of 'losing can be recovered', ultimately wiping out the principal step by step.
If you are also stuck in the death loop of "all-in - liquidation - all-in again", remember these three straightforward truths: profits that haven't been withdrawn are fake and will eventually be given back;
Without a position limit, it will eventually be wiped out due to a single mistake; if you lose, not cutting the position will only lead you deeper into trouble, leaving no chance to recover.
Trading is never about gambling on feelings, it’s about executing discipline every day. Follow @趋势猎手老金 , I have organized the operational details that helped him turn around, position calculation tables, and discipline checklists to help you avoid the 'liquidation detour'. Even if you only have a few thousand U, you can slowly build your account through steady discipline.
