Many people ask me: Is there a shortcut to turning around in the cryptocurrency world?
I want to say, yes, but it's not about relying on a miraculous trade, but about steadily “rolling the capital in small steps.” This year, I grew from 50,000 U to 1,000,000 U; it’s not a miracle, but a path paved with blood and tears, which I’m sharing today with brothers who want to survive.
I once went all in three times, losing 300,000 to only 40,000 left. That was when I understood — others can make money, it’s not luck, it’s because they have ingrained discipline into their system, while I only knew to “go all in.”
What really allowed me to survive are three words: steady, precise, roll.
① Stop-loss must be set firmly, without delusions.
I never rely on feelings for stop-loss, but calculate it based on volatility × 0.7. For example, if ETH has a volatility of 4% and the current price is 3000 dollars, I would set my stop at 2916 dollars, and when it hits, I cut directly, without manual intervention or hesitation.
② Use only 15% for the first position, add more after winning.
Starting with 50,000 U, I never use more than 7,500 U for a single trade. No matter how strong the market is, I don't go all in; positions should be rolled out, not gambled.
③ Withdraw profits, let the market’s money work for me.
For every 5% profit, I withdraw the principal. Within half a year, I recouped all my principal, and from there, it’s all profit in the battle, maintaining a mindset as steady as a machine.
Let me share a case —
Last year, when the L2 sector was hot, I went long on a niche coin with 7,500 U while hedging with 1,500 U short to guard against a sharp drop. I took profit at 15% and let the remaining profits ride, trading back and forth, ultimately netting a 29% gain.
The key is not guessing the right direction, but having discipline and a plan. Even when the market is volatile, there’s no panic, and profits can still run.
I completed this journey in three stages:
50,000 → 150,000: Only trade BTC/ETH, take profit at 5%-8%.
150,000 → 400,000: Enter leading DeFi projects, increase positions.
400,000 → 1,000,000: Increase leverage, not position size, rolling capital during the main uptrend.
52 trades in a year, with an 80% win rate. It’s not about being incredibly accurate, but about making fewer mistakes.
Before turning around, ask yourself three questions:
Is the stop-loss set?
Are you willing to test the waters with a small position?
Will you withdraw the principal when you make a profit?
Don’t rush, don’t gamble.
Next, I’m keeping an eye on three public chain projects, sticking to the old method: rolling capital in small steps, leaving a footprint with every step, rolling up to the peak of the next mountain.
