#大户持仓动态 A 34-year-old delivery worker lost his entire savings of 48,000 in a week, trembling so much he couldn't click his mouse, saying he might just not be cut out for trading.



Actually, the problem isn't about talent; it's purely because he treated trading as a gamble to turn his life around. Later, he adopted the "Steady Progression in Three Steps" approach, and he managed to turn the situation around.

**First Trick: Quit the All-In Mindset, Build Positions Gradually for Stability**
He used to think about flipping everything in one shot, but the more he tried, the more he lost. I told him to divide his principal into 6 parts, only deploying one part at a time—losing a few hundred wouldn't break his mindset, earning a few hundred wouldn't make him arrogant. This way, he slowly regained his trading rhythm.

**Second Trick: Don't Sit Idle in No-Position, Keep Some Capital as an "Market Scout"**
When $BTC started moving, he had a bunch of cash just sitting there, watching opportunities slip away. Later, he switched to maintaining a light position for testing—small trades when the market shows signs of movement. This way, he wouldn't miss explosive opportunities, nor would he blindly go all-in and risk big.

**Third Trick: Shift to the "Sleep Comfort Zone," Position Size Matters More Than Skills**
A simple way to judge: do you wake up at night because of market fluctuations? If yes, then your position size is probably too heavy. Now, he maintains a half-position long-term—when prices fall, he accumulates bottom chips; when prices rise, he calmly takes profits. He no longer gets manipulated by market volatility.

The most crucial point—don't obsess over "What did I do wrong?" Instead, ask yourself every day, "Which operation in this trade was correct?" Once your mindset stabilizes, your skills will naturally improve. Last month, he used the "Half-Position + Strict Stop-Loss" strategy to turn 48,000 into 97,000.

The market hasn't changed, $BTC's patterns haven't changed; what has changed is his shift from being controlled by the market to precisely hunting within the volatility.

Honestly: trading is like playing competitive games. It's not about life or death in a single match but about leveling up through correct decisions in each round. As your level rises, your principal naturally becomes your trophy.

Still struggling to recover your losses? It's not your ability; it's that your trading method is off. Master the right strategy, and let's start your wealth growth plan together!

It's the same story of going all-in and losing everything, doubting life, then turning it around—getting tired of hearing it all. Gradually building a position is indeed a tough move, but having a good mindset ultimately depends on self-discipline; otherwise, the recovery speed will still be painfully slow.

It's the same old story, all talk about doubling and all that, but in reality, how many can actually stick to half their position?

Is this kind of story again? I feel like I've heard the same routine a hundred times. People who go all-in really deserve it, but can half-position traders sleep well? Why do I still watch the market until 2 a.m. every day? Splitting into batches to build a position sounds simple, but the real challenge is enduring the hits of losing hundreds each time. Wait, going from 48,000 to 97,000 takes a month? The increase isn't as explosive as I imagined. Can mindset really be solved by position management? I think it mainly depends on whether you got the right market trend. This delivery guy is lucky. If the market reverses next month, I wonder if he can still stay steady.

Looking at the half-position logic, it's indeed much more reliable than blindly going all-in.

It's that kind of "I have a friend" story again... But the trick of not building positions all at once really hit home for me; I used to have a all-in mentality and almost died from it. It sounds good, but very few people can truly stick to half-position. A stable mindset is the key to technical prowess; this statement is truly spot on. Every time I see these stories, I think of my own past foolishness. Sleeping comfortably with half-position, I give it a thumbs up; it's definitely better than waking up in the middle of the night. The problem is that most people simply can't give up the dream of one-shot turnaround. From 48,000 to 97,000... The numbers look good, but does the market really give you this opportunity? Splitting into 6 parts to build positions sounds simple, but can you really do it in practice? I won't deny that the methodology is sound; the hardest part is execution. Honestly, this logic is quite similar to a gambler's self-redemption story. Trying a small position is definitely more rational than going all-in blindly.

Another heartbreaking story, 48,000 saved over two years gone in a week. The part where I was trembling so much I couldn't click the mouse really hit home.

The all-in mentality is indeed a killer; I've seen too many tragedies like that. I have to admit, the idea of a half-position in the comfort zone is quite sobering. DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging) sounds simple, but can anyone really stick to it when it comes to execution? It looks like another story of breaking even; I just want to ask, besides risk control, is there any other black magic? Having a steady mindset > technical skills, I agree.

Wow, this story sounds pretty intense. Losing 48,000 in a week is really brutal. I need to try the method of building positions gradually; going all-in is truly dangerous. The concept of half-position in the comfort zone is pretty good. I'm tired of being manipulated by the market every day. The key is mindset. Every time I lose money, I ask myself, "Why am I so bad?" I never think about what I did right. This number, 97,000... it's a bit shocking. I need to see exactly how he's operating.

It hurts just to look at it, losing 48,000 in a week... However, that later method is quite interesting, especially the part about building positions in batches, which can indeed help in emergencies. Staying calm is the key; technical skills are secondary.
