After losing 3 million in the crypto market, here's how I turned 30,000 capital into a comeback
Last year, I sold my house and went all-in, resulting in a total loss, leaving only 30,000 USDT in my account. Now, 8 months later, my account has grown to 680,000 USDT—this is not a myth, but a practical system developed after stepping into over 20 pitfalls
1. First, kill the 'gambler's mentality': 3 traps that can wipe out 30,000
Impulsively opening positions at 2 AM (70% of losses come from emotional trading)
Going all-in with leverage (before the total loss, I used 2 million capital with 10x leverage)
First step to break the cycle: divide the 30,000 into three parts (10,000 spot + 10,000 arbitrage + 10,000 contracts), check the market at three fixed times each day, and refuse to be anxious about watching the market.
2. Certain strategies to turn 30,000 capital around
1. Spot arbitrage: earn 15% weekly with brainless arbitrage
2. Contracts only capture data trends: 2% stop-loss + 5% take-profit
Before non-farm payroll data, based on rising unemployment rate (positive for BTC) and institutional accumulation (funding signals), place a buy order at 16,800 USDT, stop-loss at 16,500 USDT (loss of 300 USDT), take-profit at 17,600 USDT (gain of 800 USDT). Won 6 out of 7 data trades, growing the contract capital from 10,000 to 23,000
3. Three-filter method for value coins: do not bet on hundredfold returns, only make certain profits
Track: only choose RWA and compliant platform coins (certain narrative for 2024)
Data: Top 50 by market cap, institutional holdings >30% (filter out meme coins)
Technical: MACD bottom divergence + breaking above the 200-day moving average (enter on the right side)
In April, positioned on a certain coin for 3 months, turning 10,000 spot into 40,000
3. Three iron rules more important than making money
1. Always keep 30% of capital in USDT: dare to buy the dip during sharp drops (last year's 519 used USDT to buy ETH, earning 35% in a week)
2. Stop-loss is more important than profit: cut any position that loses 2% immediately, which helped avoid an 80% drop in a certain coin
3. Refuse the illusion of quick money: monthly target of 15%, 30,000 × 1.15^8 = 680,000, compound interest is more stable than betting on a single coin
Final key: I avoided six months of detours by using a 'comeback toolkit'
