This brother is one of my earliest fans.
He is a workshop assembly line worker, with a monthly salary of less than 5000, working 11 hours a day, too tired to even touch his phone when he gets home.
When he first entered the crypto space, he had the standard "toolman mentality":
Seeing others making profits, he would follow their trades; seeing prices rise, he would chase after them; when prices fell, he would panic and cut losses, and his account of 3000U evaporated in less than two weeks.
At that time, he asked me a question that I still remember:
"I don't have much capital, nor do I have skills, is there still hope for me?"
I told him: "Whether you can be saved or not is not important; the key is whether you can withstand the 'slow' pace."
I didn't let him go all in; I gave him three basic rules:
First rule: Only trade candlesticks that you understand
—— If you don't understand the market, don't operate; only act when you understand it; it's not about luck, but about certainty.
Second rule: Allow only one trade per day; do not add to a losing position
—— This prevents frequent trading from compounding losses; a maximum of one trade per day, even if the market moves, learn to miss out.
Third rule: Rolling over positions is not about going all in, but about using "profits" to double up
—— For example, if the account is 3000U and the first wave earns 300U, then the next trade can use this 300U to gamble without touching the principal.
He didn’t make any trades for the first three days; he just reviewed, watched the market, and took notes.
Starting from the fourth day, he made one trade a day, and his win rate was only 60% at first, but because of light positions and strict stop losses, he hardly lost big money.
In the first month, he made 3200U, doubling his account.
In the second month, his account exceeded 10,000.
In the third month, his account profit reached 28,000U, more than he earned from a year of working.
After all, most people don't lack trading knowledge but lack a systematic sense of rhythm.
Those who can make big money generally follow one principle:
Only trade what you understand; once you trade, stick to it; if you're wrong, cut losses; if you win, double up.
He could turn things around, not because I am so great, but because he finally stopped being reckless.
If you are still repeatedly resetting your account, clearly seeing the right moves but not making money—
Then what you might be lacking is not skills, but this "slow rhythm rolling method."
