There is a friend who works as a salesperson, running business outside in the scorching sun during the day and monitoring the market at home at night. He lives a hectic life, busy to the point of exhaustion, with pressure so great that he can hardly breathe.
At first, like many beginners, he bought when he saw others shouting to buy, and sold when they shouted to sell. He was busy running his business during the day and stayed up late at night watching the market, having no time to rest.
As a result, after three months, he had lost nearly 60,000 in his account. Every time he got off work and went home, he would comfort his child while anxiously watching the market, fearing he would be liquidated. At that time, he sent me messages several times: "Brother, I’m suffering a huge loss, is there still a chance to turn it around?"
I looked at his trading records, and they were mostly emotional trades, following trends without any strategy. So I told him: "First, protect your capital, then think about recovery."
I explained to him that trading cryptocurrencies is not a game for overnight riches; it requires strategy, patience, and calmness. There are too many emotional fluctuations in the market, but we cannot be swayed by these emotions.
I recommended a simple method: wait for the market to mistakenly kill off some chips, then choose the right points to enter, making steady trades without taking risks or being greedy, doing just one trade a day.
At first, he was skeptical but decided to give it a try. For the first time, he dared to operate with a small position, buying 100U worth of ETH, and I told him to enter around the 1900 point. Sure enough, a few hours later, ETH rose to 1950 points, and his account increased by 20%. He sent me a voice message: "Brother, I really didn’t expect to actually make a profit!"
Since then, he has stopped being anxious and no longer makes reckless trades. Every day he asks me: "Brother, is there a rhythm today?" He learned to control his emotions, no longer obsessively watching the market and no longer casually chasing highs and cutting losses.
After two weeks, his account grew from 200U to 1200U. He told me: "I used to always think about getting rich overnight, now I just want to earn steadily, being greedy is enough."
His transformation was definitely not a coincidence; it fundamentally changed his approach.
If you lack experience, that's okay. What you need to learn is patience, emotional control, to not be greedy, not gamble, and not act recklessly.
If he can do it, you can too.
What you are fundamentally lacking is not capital, but a correct direction.
