This market is full of stories, but those who truly succeed are always the ones who learn to respect the market.

Last winter, a desperate friend came to me after losing heavily. He had gone from 50,000 USDT to just 3,000 USDT, his voice trembling: "Bro, help me break even."

I didn't rush to give him false hopes; I simply replied, "If you want to survive, first learn to hit the brakes."

He was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

"Control your positions." I sent back three words.

From that day on, this former "all-in warrior" started learning to navigate the market with three portions of capital:

Exploratory positions

Certain increases

Defensive stop-losses

At first, he was very uncomfortable, only making one or two trades a day, earning a few dozen USDT before stopping. But gradually, he learned to remain calm during the wild fluctuations.

I remember that night when ETH spiked sharply; he resisted the urge to chase after it and instead accurately shorted at the trend reversal point. At three in the morning, he messaged me: "So trading really doesn’t have to be a gamble."

Sixty days later, that account, which had only 3,000 USDT, turned into 68,000 USDT.

Now, every person who comes to me, I always ask first: "Are you looking to gamble on luck, or do you really want to change?"

Remember, what is most valuable in this market is not the secret to getting rich quickly, but the trading discipline earned with real money. Those who can turn their fortunes around are always the ones willing to face their own issues.
