Don't remind me again today

#数字资产代币化浪潮 rolled from a principal of 600U to 170,000U, this sounds quite incredible.



But I have to be honest - at the lowest point, the balance in the intermediate account was only 97U.

That day I stared at the two-digit number on the screen, my finger hovering over the close position button for a long time without pressing it. It wasn't that I was reluctant to take a loss, I just truly didn't know what to do next. I had been trading high-leverage contracts for three days, and each time I felt like I had grasped the trend, but in the end, it all resulted in being liquidated in the opposite direction.

The opportunity came very suddenly.

At around four in the morning, I was tossing and turning in bed unable to sleep, and suddenly realized one thing: this market doesn't care how much you want to earn; it only punishes those who can't control their desires.

Since then, I have set three strict rules for myself:

Take profits immediately when a single trade reaches 20%, regardless of how much more it could rise.
Always use only 30% of the funds to open positions, and keep the remaining money as a safety reserve;
Before each operation, ask yourself: If this trade blows up, can you still survive?

Many people think this strategy is too conservative and has missed countless tenfold opportunities. But what they don't see is that I used this clumsy method to grind 97U to 2000U, and then to 18,000U. Every step is taken slowly, but as long as the account is alive, there is still a chance.

The most intense operation occurred during a market panic sell-off.

Everyone is shouting "the bull market is over," but I have stuck to my stop-loss line for ten days. During that time, the first thing I did every morning was check if my position had been liquidated, and at night, I was in a light sleep state. My friends say I’m crazy, and I feel like I’m walking a tightrope.

On the eleventh day, the market reversed. That trade tripled my account.

But I know that it’s not luck; it’s because I calculated the maximum loss limit in advance and confirmed that even in the case of a liquidation, it wouldn’t be devastating. True risk management isn’t about predicting the right direction, but about not getting wiped out even when the prediction is wrong.

Later, as the principal grew larger and larger, I became increasingly cautious.

Someone asked me why I don't increase my position and go all in. My answer is: surviving is more important than making quick profits. This market has never been short of stories of overnight wealth, but ninety percent of the protagonists in those stories have already disappeared.

Looking back now, from 600U to 170,000U, technology accounts for only 30%, while the remaining 70% is all about mindset.

Don't impulsively increase your position when the market is good, and don't panic sell when the market is bad. Most of the time, you're actually waiting—waiting for an entry opportunity with an appropriate risk-reward ratio.

If you are currently experiencing the despair of liquidation, or regretting missing out on the market movements,
Why not take a moment to think: do you really want to gamble for a chance to change your fate, or do you want to survive in this market for the long term?

The former relies on luck, while the latter relies on discipline.

I was able to turn a two-digit principal into a six-digit sum; anyone can do it as long as you are willing to first learn—survive.
