#数字货币市场洞察 People often question whether this market is just about getting lucky. I want to talk about a friend I brought in last year—he entered the market with 1800U, and now his account is steadily at 80,000U, hitting 29,000 in just three months.



He never got liquidated, and didn’t rely on any mystical tricks.

He asked me for the secret. I told him there’s no real secret—it’s just about dividing your money wisely.

I had him split that 1800U into three parts: the first 600U was for intraday trading, only taking one trade a day, exiting after a 5% gain, never being greedy; the second 600U was set aside to wait for obvious breakout moves, like when the price holds a key level for three days and volume picks up—only then would he enter; the last 600U was locked away, untouchable by anyone—this was a psychological safety button to prevent him from going all-in on impulse.

In short, the max loss per trade was 2% of the principal. Even after a few losses in a row, you wouldn’t blow up.

Then there’s the rhythm. Most of the time the market moves sideways, and the real big opportunities only come a few times a year. My approach is simple: when I don’t understand the market, I do nothing; when a real trend emerges, resistance is broken and volume confirms, I jump in decisively; after a 20%+ gain, I take out 30% to pocket, and set a trailing stop for the rest to ride the move.

The difference between novices and veterans isn’t trading frequency, but whether you can resist those tempting distractions.

The hardest part is sticking to discipline. Three hard rules—break one and you’re benched:

Wrong direction? As soon as the 2% stop-loss line is hit, cut it immediately—no holding, no averaging down, no wishful thinking;
When you’re 4% in profit, take some off the table first—don’t let your gains turn into a roller coaster ride;
After a loss, never add to your position out of emotion—that’s gambler behavior.

In this market, it’s never really the lack of skill that kills you, but emotional breakdowns. The point of rules is to make trading a repeatable process, not a game of luck every time.
