The screen was bright in the late night, and the message he sent trembled: "Sister, there's only 5000U left in the account, I can barely hold on."
I didn't say anything flattering, I just replied: "Don't think about recovering your losses yet, let's first hold on to the word 'stability.'"
He listened to me, didn't touch high leverage for the first 7 days, each trade capped at 15% of the principal — made 3% on BTC pullbacks and didn't get greedy with small fluctuations in ETH.
On the morning of the 8th day, he sent a screenshot: a profit of 9800U, along with the phrase "Finally able to breathe a sigh of relief."
I have been in the crypto space for five years, never relying on hype to gain followers, and certainly not engaging in activities that exploit others.
I have seen too many people fall into the "technical superstition": holding onto indicators as a lifesaver, using 10x leverage to gamble on altcoins, and losing everything with just one bearish candle.
In fact, what retail investors want is not complex analysis, but the execution power to catch the right rhythm.
Three key things I never hide:
First, use profits to increase positions, always protect the principal first;
Second, set your profit-taking and stop-loss rules rigidly: withdraw your principal after a 5% gain, and cut losses immediately after a 3% loss. Do not indulge in the fantasy of "waiting for a rebound."
Third, only focus on mainstream coins, with small coins at most for hedging, and never take large positions.
Last month, another brother I brought along lost 100,000 U before and followed me for 7 days:
Use 1000U as a base for the first 3 days, with each order not exceeding 150U;
On the 4th day, I used the profit of 200U to add ETH, set a stop-loss, and surprisingly made 8%;
By the 7th day, he not only withdrew the 3000U principal, but the remaining profits coincided with the main upward trend of SOL, directly multiplying by almost 10 times.
What miracles are there? It's just the execution of "not being greedy, not panicking, not being chaotic."
Someone scolded me for "earning slowly", yet turned around and used 10x leverage to gamble on altcoins;
Those who walked with me have long engraved "profit locked in" into the trades.
The cryptocurrency circle is never a solo gambling den; it is a battlefield where a group of people follow the right rhythm.
Whether you believe it or not doesn't matter, what's important is believing that "stability" can win.
