The flow of wealth in the crypto world is essentially a repeated cycle of illusions and realities in the fluctuations of digital assets. The principal involved in contract trading often becomes the most easily devoured chip in this market.

Recently, I came across a trader’s case—holding only 5000U. During a previous period, due to blindly copying trades and impulsive decisions, he lost more than 80,000 yuan. It was a state close to collapse.

The remaining 5000U was his "turnaround capital" earned through self-discipline and patience.

His most desperate words at that time were: "Either this time reverses the situation, or I completely leave this circle."

My advice to him was straightforward—rather than obsessing over the fantasy of turning things around, it’s better to learn how to survive first.

Two months later, the net value of this account had risen to over 200,000U.

This was not luck hitting him, but his deep understanding of the importance of the word "survival."

The first step I helped him with was splitting his funds.

5000U was divided into 10 independent units of 500U each, with only one unit traded at a time. If the market moved as expected, he would take profits of 20% or 30% and immediately exit; if his judgment was wrong, he would cut losses decisively at the stop-loss point.

This market is never won by the fierceness of the trader, but by who understands the importance of "turning away."

His trading discipline was very core:

Stop-loss is like a car’s safety device. Ignoring it will eventually lead to an accident.

After three consecutive losses, he would pause trading. When the market is chaotic, the more frequently he trades, the faster the losses accumulate.

Profits must be taken in planned batches; those gains that stay in the account without being withdrawn will eventually be reclaimed by the market.

Position size should be kept restrained; never let a single loss escalate into an account wipeout.

Many traders dislike the slow, steady pace of small positions, always wanting to go all-in for quick thrills.

But the most ruthless rule in this circle is—those who chase speed are more likely to die in the speed.

The ones who can laugh last are those who can endure, tolerate, and still leave a breath of life.

This trader now trades very steadily—no chasing orders, no gambler mentality, no emotional operations.

From "reckless rushing" to "steady progress," he finally saw clearly—

The most powerful tools in this market are not leverage ratios or complex technical indicators,

But two of the simplest things: mental resilience and disciplined execution.

Market signals are continuously accumulating, and the opportunities of the next cycle are emerging. I will continue to accompany more traders to steadily position themselves, neither risking their lives nor relying on luck, but solely on strategy and discipline to profit.
