From 5000 USDT to 10x: How I Helped Others Recover Using the 'Rhythm Flipping Method'
Three months ago, when a friend contacted me, there were only 5000 USDT left in the account, and it was about to collapse. I just said, 'Don't think about getting rich quickly; let's aim for three times first.' He followed the advice, steadily progressing for the first seven days, and on the eighth day encountered a bullish line, earning 9,800 USDT. He messaged me saying, 'Finally seeing recovery.' I do not become an internet celebrity, nor do I make money by cutting leeks. I focus on one thing — helping people stabilize their position flips. Core logic: In the cryptocurrency market, it’s not about technology, but rhythm and execution power. Technical analysis? Retail investors using it is just self-deception. I have seen too many people fail due to 'over-leveraging, chasing prices, and betting on rebounds' — leveraging 10 times on altcoins, a single bearish line can lead directly to zero.
To be honest, seeing this fan profit makes me quite pleased. Teaching someone to fish is better than giving them a fish; it's even rarer to gain both fishing and fish.
Don’t operate blindly when you’re not certain, and don’t play with the mindset of getting rich overnight. There’s no way to get a windfall; any investment requires a gradual approach, and it’s important to keep this in mind;
Finally, maintain a good mindset, manage your positions well, go out with a goal, and come back with results. Doubling is not about speed, but about having a method; we can learn and discuss together.
Practical experience, point estimates, and directional judgments are key. Doubling small funds is easy, but losses can also come quickly. The core issue is how to choose the timing for entry and exit based on market feel.
Position management is very simple; just do it according to demand. The problem is whether you can control greed and mindset. Not everyone can decisively stop loss when they should. Managing your mindset and timing, it's really not that difficult to make a little profit in this market (the trends are always there; keep up and you can benefit).

Understanding the market clearly gives you confidence in operations. Consistently profiting is much more practical than fantasizing about getting rich.
Traders often have moments of self-perceived insights, and such moments may occur 100 times. However, the first 99 times are often illusory insights. Every time I realize that it was just a false insight, my heart feels as if it is being cut by a knife, and the funds in the account are reduced once again, and the trading performance remains unsatisfactory. Those who can withstand these 99 false insights have undoubtedly experienced countless tempering and honing of their souls and bodies! In the turbulent market of cryptocurrency, the hardships and torment faced while struggling are truly hard to express.
In the crypto world, there is a saying that goes: “Holding coins is better than trading coins, and trading coins is better than mining coins.”
This statement sounds reasonable at first, but many people still find it hard to resist the temptation of quick profits and dive headfirst into the trading frenzy.
Trading is indeed exciting; during a good market, the profits can soar like a rocket;
but if not managed well, the money can evaporate in an instant. So how can one avoid becoming a victim of exploitation, a "leek"? Starting from the basics is a good approach, and candlestick charts are one of the most fundamental tools.
The history of candlestick charts is quite long; as early as the 18th century, Japanese rice merchants used it to record fluctuations in rice prices.
Later, the securities market borrowed this method, and candlestick charts gradually became a key tool for analyzing market trends. Simply put, candlestick charts are like the “electrocardiogram” of the crypto world, visually presenting price movements, market fluctuations, and the sentiments of investors.
Candlestick charts are mainly divided into bullish and bearish candles. A bullish candle represents a rising price, with a lower opening price and a higher closing price; a bearish candle indicates a falling price, with a higher opening price and a lower closing price.
By observing these two types of candles, one can roughly judge market trends. However, more importantly, one must understand the market sentiment conveyed by the candlestick charts, such as the strength comparison between buyers and sellers, as well as potential future trends.
Candlestick charts act like a traffic signal guiding direction. A long bullish candle often indicates strong market buying power;
while consecutive bearish candles may suggest a decline in market sentiment, with a reversal possible at any time. Learning to observe these changes can help seize the best entry opportunities.
Trading is essentially a psychological game, and it is not complicated. Mastering candlestick charts allows one to see through market sentiment, make wiser decisions, and avoid blindly following trends.
Stop chasing prices when they rise and panic selling when they fall. Stay calm, learn to analyze the market, and you can secure victory in this game.
Therefore, trading is not difficult; the challenge lies in understanding candlestick signals, grasping market rhythm, and not being swayed by emotions.
Trading is about repeating simple tasks, persistently using one method over a long time until you master it. Just like in other industries, practice makes perfect; you can make decisions effortlessly and instinctively with every action.

People often throw this question at me: 'Can trading cryptocurrencies really make money?' After eight years of ups and downs in the crypto space, I successfully gained 10 million in profits, but every penny behind it is filled with lessons of blood and tears! I spent a full five years to give a definite answer: Yes! However, there is an important prerequisite - you must be familiar with the rules. Today, I have carefully summarized ten practical tips for trading cryptocurrencies, hoping to help you navigate the crypto space with fewer detours and earn more profits. Do not borrow money to trade cryptocurrencies The experience of trading cryptocurrencies is like riding a crazy roller coaster, with risks that are absurdly high. True experts never borrow money to enter the market, and even when facing losses, they will not fall into a situation where maintaining basic living standards becomes difficult.
Losing money is not a mistake of misjudgment, but rather a failure in the six words "no trading system".
Anyone can be wrong, and everyone will be wrong; mistakes are a part of trading.
A cryptocurrency trading system is directly provided, but the key is—can you really use it well? A big cycle trend—clearly identifying whether it is a bullish or bearish market, and deciding whether to go long or short accordingly.
Entering the market in a small cycle (note, the span between small and large cycle levels should not be too large, ideally 4-6 times)—using the small cycle to filter against reverse fluctuations, adhering to the right-side trading principle.
Setting a stop loss—based on the trading system of the small cycle chart.
Moving the stop loss up to the cost price—only after a "reasonable" profit appears in the small cycle should it be adjusted. Completing the entry operation—close the small cycle chart and no longer pay attention, instead return to the big cycle chart for analysis.
If the stop loss is triggered, repeat the above steps 1-5.
If the big cycle trend is positive, continuously move the stop loss in a favorable direction—adjust according to the trading system of the big cycle chart.
If the stop loss (or take profit) is triggered, loop through the above operation process.
The trader's self-awareness revelation will happen 100 times
The first 99 times are all false revelations. Each time one discovers it is a false revelation is very painful, resulting in a loss of money and underperformance.
Those who can withstand 99 false revelations have had their soul and body tempered many times!
Struggling in the crypto world is really tormenting.
Let's talk about the trading strategy that pursues a high profit-loss ratio.
Using this strategy in the crypto world, stop-loss is simply a daily routine, while making a profit becomes a rare event. You might have to encounter 10 consecutive losses to exchange for that 1 profit.
Every day, watching the funds in the account decrease bit by bit, without knowing when the next profit will come, can you really keep a stable mindset during such times?
Now let's look at high win-rate trading strategies. Using this strategy in the crypto world, you might initially make small profits consecutively, and by the end of the month, the account shows a profit, which looks pretty good.
But then there's the fear of a sudden day when a single loss wipes out all the money earned through hard work over the month, instantly turning a month of effort into bubbles, making it all in vain. Although it's said that in the long run, persistence will definitely lead to profits, if you experience a few more of these “wasted efforts,” can your mindset remain unshaken?
There is also a trading strategy that combines a high profit-loss ratio and a high win rate. In the crypto world, using this strategy might require waiting for half a year or even a year to see a wave of truly profitable market conditions.
During this long wait, watching other cryptocurrencies hit new highs every day while your holdings resemble stagnant water, remaining motionless, and even continuing to incur floating losses, which keep increasing. At this point, can you not feel anxious? Can you endure this loneliness and stick to your strategy?
In fact, trading strategies that combine a high profit-loss ratio and a high win rate do exist in the crypto world, such as strategies that anchor the value of coins and reasonably increase positions during floating losses, belong to this category.
But no matter which trading strategy you choose, you must face an uncertain future in the crypto world. Without strong willpower and firm belief, it is really difficult to engage in crypto trading.
I have used 80% of the methods and techniques in the market. If you want to treat trading cryptocurrencies as a second career to support your family, sometimes listening and observing more will uncover some things outside of your current understanding, which can at least save you 5 years of detours!
300U Fund Allocation = Three-Dimensional Strategy + Emotional Control
Newcomers who just entered the cryptocurrency market often find themselves caught in the dilemma of 'not daring to act due to limited capital' and 'fearing a total loss' — especially when they have only up to 1000U in funds. They want to use contracts for some returns but are afraid of hitting the pit of 'going all in to zero'. In fact, the core issue is not 'whether to dare to act', but 'how to allocate funds and how to control risks'. Even starting with only 300U, as long as one adheres to discipline and eliminates emotional interference, they can gradually grow their capital while avoiding most of the loss traps that newcomers face. 1. Core Principles: First set the rules, then talk about profit
Let me talk about the cryptocurrency ecosystem I've observed. After years of experience in the crypto space, I have gained some insights.
First, there are the 'newbie players' aged 30 - 40.
Most of them only use exchanges and enjoy playing contracts when they have nothing to do. Their main sources of information are domestic platforms like Douyin and Weibo, and they can easily be lured into pyramid schemes by friends, often resulting in losing all their money.
These people are the bottom tier of the cryptocurrency world, and one should not blindly follow the crowd; otherwise, there is a high probability of losing money.
Next, there are the relatively well-informed on-chain players.
They mainly acquire information from channels like Twitter and generally do not miss out on hot news. These individuals rarely play contracts and prefer to operate on-chain, such as buying 'shitcoins', claiming airdrops, participating in ICOs, etc.
However, they are still limited by the Chinese-speaking cultural sphere, and there are certain barriers to information access. Therefore, among this group, some can make money, while others cannot.
Finally, there are the top information hunters. Among them, a few information experts form small circles to share high-quality information collectively.
They can break through the information cocoon of the Chinese-speaking world and search for scarce alpha information in English, Russian, Japanese, Korean, and even Turkish-speaking areas. In the Chinese-speaking world, people like Laser Cat and 0xsun are typical representatives; they are the harvesters of the cryptocurrency space.
It is worth mentioning that although Chinese netizens bypass numerous restrictions and contribute a significant amount of liquidity to the cryptocurrency space, the most advanced and innovative developments are primarily led by Western communities.
This reminds us that when participating in cryptocurrency activities, we must remain vigilant to avoid blindly following trends, while also broadening our horizons and paying attention to global dynamics. Only then can we find our own path to survival in the complex and ever-changing cryptocurrency ecosystem.
The difference between 1000u at 10x leverage and 5000u at 2x leverage....
Many newcomers to the cryptocurrency world feel that "1000u at 10x leverage" and "5000u at 2x leverage" are no different — after all, the nominal position size is the same at 10000u (1000×10=5000×2). However, in reality, these two operations represent a stark contrast between "rapid liquidation" and "steady trial and error." How dangerous is high leverage? Why do newcomers get liquidated at the slightest touch? Today, I will clarify this point to help you avoid 90% of the deadly traps in contracts! 1. The core differences between the two types of leverage operations: the risk logic is worlds apart Although the position sizes seem the same, the margin requirements, resistance to volatility, and operational mindset are completely different, representing a critical difference for newcomers.
The strongest technical document in the crypto world, recommended to read three times....
When I entered the cryptocurrency world with a capital of 500,000, I once became so euphoric after raking in 100,000 in a week that I truly believed I had discovered the 'holy grail' of trading. I was completely focused on trading cryptocurrencies, even entertaining the idea of borrowing money to leverage my investments. But reality hit me hard and fast: the market took a sharp downturn, wiping out all my early gains and leaving me in significant debt. In the end, I had no choice but to grit my teeth and sell my car and house to fill the hole. 2017 was my darkest hour; in just a few months, I fell from what seemed like the 'peak' to the bottom. Later, reflecting on my experiences, I was fortunate to sit down with a few senior figures in the crypto space over tea. We didn't discuss K-line fluctuations, but rather the underlying logic of 'cyclical patterns,' 'risk hedging,' and 'cognitive boundaries.' One of the seniors' words struck me like thunder: 'A true trader does not earn by predicting the market, but by mastering their own humanity.' It was then that I suddenly realized: my earlier illusion of being a 'master' was merely due to hitting the bull market's windfall, mistaking luck for skill.
Can trading cryptocurrencies lead to financial freedom? A 7-year veteran should have a say.....
In the eyes of others, I might barely be considered financially free, but for me, it feels more like a victory of self-control over my life. When the market is sluggish, like a still pond, or in a one-sided decline with no trading opportunities, I drive to remote hills and lakes to start my fishing journey. As long as my phone has a hint of signal, I can keep a close eye on the on-chain dynamics while leisurely fishing; this kind of enjoyment is hard for others to comprehend. In short, life for me means being free and unrestrained. Every morning, after dropping my child off at school, I return home leisurely to enjoy a warm breakfast. Around 9 o'clock, the day's real work begins. I sit in front of the computer and meticulously record the previous day's trading volume, average price, and profit-loss ratio, and I also casually jot down some trading insights. In my view, trading cryptocurrencies is by no means a blind impulse like gambling; it is more like an intense struggle with self-discipline. Every trading decision is a test of my self-restraint.
Don't take your friends into trading cryptocurrencies.....
An old player in the cryptocurrency world tells you from the bottom of their heart: Never easily take your friends into the cryptocurrency market. Otherwise, what awaits you will be a pile of troubles and complaints that you can't shake off. If luck is on your side and the market occasionally performs well, they might make a little money, but they won't appreciate you. Once losses appear again, they will bring up past grievances, accusing you of just having good luck and lacking real skill, saying that you didn't help them make big money, and that you intentionally recommended unprofitable projects, just to prevent them from living a good life. When the market conditions are poor and their investments have lost money, troubles will come one after another.
Multi-Period K-Line Trading Method (Recommended for Collection)
While wandering in the Binance community, I noticed that many new friends who are just getting into the crypto space face similar confusion. Watching the market fluctuations, full of hope to seize every opportunity, yet often disturbed by short-term rises and falls, they not only expend a lot of energy in frequent buying and selling operations, but often end up with losses. In light of this, I plan to start a column on basic knowledge and technology in the crypto space, and will continue to update a series of articles. The content will include rigorous analyses as textbook-like as well as valuable experiences I have summarized from practical battles, hoping to light a lamp for partners who are new to the crypto space.
How shocking are the worst cases of cryptocurrency losses around you?
All names are represented by letters. If you don't believe it, just consider it a joke....... D: In 2017, during the ICO frenzy, I borrowed 3 million with high leverage against my property to enter the cryptocurrency market. After the regulatory storm, the project team ran away, and after losing everything, I was forced to sell my house to pay off debts. Now in my fifties, I'm still delivering food to pay the interest. E: During the bull market of 2020-2021, I turned 500,000 into 8 million. After quitting my job, I set up a trading studio. In 2022, when LUNA crashed, I heavily bet on it and lost everything in three days. Now I've lost 30 pounds, and last year I secretly mortgaged my parents' retirement house to re-enter the market. Currently, my whereabouts are unknown.
Seven Years of Tears and Reflections in the Crypto World and the Road Ahead
After struggling in the crypto world for so long, I have experienced countless setbacks and losses. Each experience is like a sharp blade, piercing me and prompting constant reflection. Now, let me review those painful lessons and think about how to avoid risks in the future. 1. Blindly chasing 'Dogecoin', losing everything I once impulsively jumped into those so-called 'Dogecoin' projects. At that time, I only saw the fantasies of quick wealth brought by false propaganda, completely ignoring the intrinsic value and risks of the projects. As a result, these 'Dogecoins' are now worthless, and my investment has gone down the drain. This made me realize that one should not be blinded by temporary hype in the crypto world. It's necessary to conduct thorough research on the projects, understand the teams, technology, application scenarios, etc., otherwise it's just making a joke out of one's own funds.
Iron Rules and Techniques of Short-Term Trading: Anchoring Profit Logic Amidst Volatility
If you happen to come across this content, take a moment to read it slowly. There's no need to get stuck on difficult parts; read through the entire text first, then go back to ponder it carefully. In today's fast-paced and fragmented information environment, being able to absorb a genuinely shared deep trading insight article is both an opportunity for readers to reflect on themselves and a stroke of luck for creators to have their value recognized. Core of Short-Term Trading: Four Key Principles and Nine Iron Rules The essence of short-term trading is condensed into the four words 'fast, accurate, fierce, and independent' — missing any one of these makes it difficult to stand firm in the short-term market. Among them, 'independent' is particularly crucial, referring to focusing only on the cryptocurrencies that you have tracked long-term and are sufficiently familiar with, without recklessly touching unfamiliar assets. To implement these four key principles, one must strictly adhere to the following nine iron rules:
No insider info! Made 660,000 U in 3 years, understand to lose half a house!
After three years of struggling in the crypto world, I went from initially holding 10,000 U and not daring to act recklessly, to now firmly holding 670,000 U. I haven't relied on any insider information, nor have I caught the kind of crazy bull market that makes people envious, but rather I have relied on a seemingly 'unfancy' clumsy method, repeatedly using it, slowly earning it day by day. In 1095 days and nights, I have focused on one thing: treating every trade as a monster to defeat and level up. I don't rush for speed, nor am I greedy to jump in; I just concentrate on honing my skills—if I can't understand the market, I review more; if I judge incorrectly, I summarize the lessons, and slowly refine my feel and rhythm.
In the cryptocurrency world, why do some people always feel the urge to trade frequently?
The answer is quite heartbreaking: the capital is too small. When there are only a mere 200U in the wallet instead of 200BTC, every 5% fluctuation becomes an opportunity to change one's fate. This is not just a restless desire, but a survival instinct.
Traditional finance emphasizes the time value of money, while in the cryptocurrency world, time is extremely compressed. The block time is only 12 seconds, and a 1-minute candlestick can form 15 bars.
Here, 10 million at 30 years old and 10 million at 60 years old are no different because by the age of 30, you may have already faced multiple liquidations.
The concept of value investing often fails in the cryptocurrency world. "Hold Bitcoin, ten thousand times in eight years" sounds tempting, but in practice, buying in at 10,000 dollars in 2017 would only grow to 60,000 dollars by 2025, yielding an annualized return of 25%.
With a principal of 500,000, having 3 million now seems good, but eight years ago, the principal might have only been 50,000, and many people have already exited halfway to switch positions.
Who comes to the cryptocurrency world without the dream of "changing fate against the odds"? A statement in the group like "20 times tonight, villa by the sea" is far more attractive than Buffett's "getting rich slowly."
With a principal of 800U, earning only 120U at an annualized rate of 15% for a year is barely enough to change a phone; but with 50 times leverage, catching a 10% rebound can immediately multiply the account by 5 times, making rent possible. For retail investors, slow means waiting for death, and quick is the only way out.
Thus, retail investors watch the market 24 hours a day, and when something trends, they experience FOMO; changing Musk's avatar can lead to 100 times leverage, and they immediately switch to perpetual contracts after liquidation to fight again.
It's like Texas short deck, with only 10 big blinds, you can only go all-in; win, you double up, lose, and you are out.
Frequent trading and liquidation are not shameful; what is shameful is shouting "Bitcoin will go to zero" while having not even one Bitcoin left in the wallet.
In the cryptocurrency world, the poor talk about winning rates, while the rich talk about positions. Before placing a trade, ask yourself, "Can I still afford instant noodles after liquidation?" If you can afford it, go for it;
If you can't, reduce your position. After all, the cryptocurrency world is not lacking in opportunities, but in those who can survive until spring.

After losing 1.8 million, how did he rely on these three things to 'come back to life'?
Last year, I encountered the darkest moment of my life, failing in the cryptocurrency market with losses as high as 1.8 million. At that moment, I completely collapsed, angrily smashed my phone, ruthlessly deleted all trading apps, and nearly cut off all contact with the outside world. During that bleak period, I was filled with despair, feeling that the path in the cryptocurrency world had come to an end, but deep inside, that unwilling flame continued to burn. As time came to early 2025, my financial situation was miserable, with only 3400U left. I secretly encouraged myself, telling myself this was the last chance for a turnaround. Unexpectedly, with this little remaining principal, I actually succeeded in making a comeback.
