Last year's losses made me want to give up at one point. 500,000 U just vanished into thin air. During that time, I smashed my phone, deleted trading apps, and locked myself in a room for a full two months. When my account hit zero, I really thought my journey in the crypto world was over.



But that feeling of "unwillingness" kept burning inside me. I shouted at the mirror: Either admit defeat and walk away, or fight my way out!

At the beginning of this year, my account only had 3,400 U — just this much starting capital. Surprisingly, this became my turning point. The amount eventually reversed to 120,000 U, and is still growing. Not only did I recover the 500,000 U I lost before, but I also earned an extra 20,000+. It sounds like a fairy tale, but every achievement can be verified on the chain.

Why was I able to turn things around? It all comes down to these 3 life-saving rules, which are now etched into my mind:

**Rule 1: Always leave yourself an exit route**
My previous losses were due to one word: "greed." I always wanted to go all-in. Now, my bottom line is—keep a maximum of 40% per single position, and cut losses immediately at 15%. As long as I don’t get liquidated, there’s always a chance to bounce back. This is the first lesson in risk management.

**Rule 2: Follow the trend, don’t try to catch the top or bottom**
Trying to pick the bottom or top is for gods. As an ordinary trader, I just follow the market rhythm—go long when it’s rising, go short when it’s falling. Making a few thousand U in ten minutes depends entirely on this "following" principle.

**Rule 3: Take profits in layers**
When I make money, I only take 30% to continue compounding and increasing positions, while the remaining 70% is withdrawn to my wallet. Don’t be afraid of slow gains; greed is the real culprit behind small funds getting wiped out. Protecting what you have is the key.

In the past few days, I’ve helped some followers grow from 1,000 U to over 5,000 U, and’ve also pulled back many friends on the brink of liquidation. Honestly, many people don’t lack skills—they lack discipline and a reliable guide.

Now the market is about to take off again. I mainly focus on core coins like BTC, ETH, SOL, BNB, providing 3-5 spot and futures trading plans daily. If you’re still lost in confusion and losses, consider following this time. But a word in advance: I only work with people who truly want to turn things around and can stick to discipline. From saying goodbye to losses, to following professional strategies, to building your own profit system—these three steps are indispensable.
BTC-1.21%
ETH-1.14%
SOL-1.68%
BNB-0.52%

I lost 500,000 directly, and I’ve also been through that period. Honestly, those two months were truly despairing. But this guy’s set of rules is honest, no nonsense, and I deeply understand the importance of risk control. Wait, 3400 turned into 120,000? Can it be verified on the chain? Then I need to carefully check this account’s records. Basically, it’s about a stop-loss discipline. 99% of people can’t do this, including my past self. Still recruiting followers? But this time, the logic sounds much more reliable than those who hype up getting rich overnight. Cut when a single trade gains 40% or loses 15%, sounds conservative but actually keeps you alive longer. That’s how I do it now. Back when it was 3400, how崩 the mentality must have been. But instead, it became clearer?

500,000 directly turned to ashes, truly a ruthless move, but this rebound definitely has some substance Turning 3,400 into 120,000 sounds unbelievable, but discipline is truly the key The hardest moment is cutting losses, but only by staying alive can you keep earning Taking 70% profit is brilliant; greed really destroys everything

The two months when the account was wiped out were really unbearable. Now seeing 3400U turn into 120,000 is quite a relief, haha. Cutting losses and stopping out is definitely the right move; much better than a gamble mentality. Taking 70% off the table to secure profits is a ruthless move. Greed is truly the terminal illness of retail investors.

Losing 500,000 and still able to turn it around—that psychological resilience is truly exceptional. Honestly, turning 3,400U into 120,000 sounds a bit doubtful; I’d need to see the actual trades before believing it. --- The first, second, and third rules are well written, but the hardest part is execution. How many people know they should cut losses, but then hesitate and go all-in again? --- Making a few thousand U in just ten minutes—that's a bit intense. I feel like I’m digging a pit for my followers. --- Not to mention, this shift in mentality is real skill. From smashing phones to now maintaining discipline, I’ve truly transformed. --- The suggestion of 70% withdrawal is quite reliable, but I worry others might not listen and end up going all-in and blowing up again. --- So basically, is the key not in technique but in discipline? But I still feel like it’s just a disguised sales pitch for courses... --- Earning back 500,000 and making an extra 20,000—mathematically, it’s fine. But can this approach really be replicated? --- Compared to the plan, I’m more interested in knowing what the maximum drawdown was over these three months.

Losing 500,000 can still be recovered, and that mindset is really tough... However, that set of discipline theories sounds somewhat familiar. How many people really treat cutting 15% as an ironclad rule? Most of the time, they only regret it after getting margin called from greed.
