You might not believe it, but with an old computer and a small account, I managed to grow from 70,000 to 4.2 million. No insider information, no institutional friends, just these 8 painful lessons learned from real combat, each one can save you from crisis. Don't rush to save this, finish reading first, and like it only if you agree!
1. Use half your capital for T+0, sticking to cost is the way out
Don't fantasize about doubling the next day; first learn 'half position + T+0'. What does it mean? Hold half the shares, keep half the cash. Buy more when it drops, sell the original position when it rises, repeatedly lowering the cost. As long as you learn this trick, you can unravel yourself from being trapped. The market doesn't feed the lazy, but rewards those who take action.
2. Setting stop losses is to prevent you from losing everything
Most retail investors who lose money don't fail to buy, but are reluctant to sell! I set two red lines: warning at 5% loss, clear out at 15% drop, and leave without hesitation if breaking the 20-day line. Be a little cautious so your account can last longer!
3. If the trend is there, hold on; if the trend breaks, run.
Do you want to hold onto a doubling stock? Then keep an eye on the trend! Hold as long as the 5-day line is not broken; if it breaks for two days without rising, don't cling to the battle. The market doesn't care about feelings; once it turns, even the best performance can be cut in half.
4. Capital is life, profit is the bullet
Have you ever experienced 'doubling and then falling back to the starting point'? I have. So I learned smart: once a stock doubles, immediately withdraw the principal, and just roll the profit from then on. Even if I lose everything, it just brings me back to the starting point, never hurting the base.
5. Avoid leverage, position determines success or failure
Leverage is not magic, it's poison. **2-5 times can still be controlled, 10 times is gambling with your life.** I never go all in on one stock; when my capital is less than 100,000, I allocate at most 20% to each stock. Stability is more important than speed.
6. Don't watch the news, watch the K-line and volume
Good news isn't for you to see, it's a shield for the main force to offload. **Real rises don't rely on hype, but on the 10-day line slowly increasing with volume.** You watch the news, I watch the market, who is more real?
7. Pick up bargains after two or three consecutive days of decline, short trades for victory
If it drops for two or three days without breaking the 10-day line, it's actually an opportunity! Buy low at the end of the day, sell out the next day with a 2% increase. Don't ask if it can hit the limit up; I just want a meal and don't want to get scalded by a pot of soup.
8. Only catch the main rising wave three times a year, spend the rest of the time fishing
It's not about trading every day to make money, but about seizing those three high-certainty trends: like the main rise of AI, the explosion of digital currencies, and the policy support opening up. If you can endure, you can survive.
The market doesn't make money through frequency, but through precise strikes.
From 70,000 to 4.2 million, it's not talent, it's rules + execution + patience. I'm willing to break down this experience and write it for you, hoping you take fewer detours.
