#数字资产动态追踪 From $3,000 to $150,000, a true doubling story



A friend recently asked me why some people can still steadily grow their accounts in a bear market. The secret isn’t in predicting the market correctly, but in a trading rhythm that is almost "extremely simple"—let’s call it the "Steady Snowball Method."

I’ve seen a typical case: starting with $3,000, using $SOL as the main asset, the account reached $150,000 in three weeks. No insider information, no extreme leverage, just honest adherence to the rules. Today, I want to break down this approach and discuss it.

**Level One: Restrain the First Position, Enter in Batches**

Many traders make their first mistake here—getting the principal and going all-in immediately. As a result, a market reversal can wipe the account to zero. This friend is different; he only took 20% of the initial $3,000, about $600, to test the waters.

What’s the benefit of testing with a small amount? Once the direction is confirmed, then increase the position. Made $1,000? Instead of investing it all, only roll over $300, and take the rest off the table. The result is that the position size keeps growing, but the risk per unit actually shrinks—because the base is increasing.

**Level Two: Be Patient, Wait for Key Moments**

Last month, BTC traded sideways for nearly two weeks. What are most traders doing? Frequent trades, constant rebalancing, their accounts worn out by daily oscillations. What does this friend do? Not a single trade.

It looks passive, but in reality, he’s disciplined. The real opportunity to exit is when a key level is broken. Placing an order at that moment yields the highest win rate. The market’s big profits never come from daily watching, but from a few true turning points that are caught.

**Level Three: Safe Distance is the Lifeline**

This is the most straightforward point. Every trade should leave enough buffer—set the liquidation line far enough away. When a small dip occurs, don’t panic; as long as you’re not close to liquidation, there’s still a next step.

Compare this to traders who often get wiped out—they tend to have positions near support levels, and a small spike can wipe them out instantly. That’s not bad luck; it’s because they didn’t leave themselves an escape route.

**Level Four: Take Profits When Made, Don’t Be Greedy**

Account figures are just numbers; what truly belongs to you is the money you can withdraw. This friend’s approach is very clear: double the principal, then withdraw half immediately. When reaching $100,000, he withdrew $60,000 on the spot, leaving $40,000 to continue rolling.

This detail is crucial—many people fall into the illusion of "a big account," but end up not making a single profit. The money taken off the table is the real gain.

**In summary, these four iron rules**

Don’t exceed 20% on the first position; stabilize before expanding. Only participate in high-probability opportunities; avoid reckless trades. Always leave enough safety margin; don’t get wiped out by random dips. Take profits when available; don’t just aim for bigger account numbers.

The market is never short of opportunities. What’s lacking is patience, execution, and respect for risk. Those who truly go far in crypto are often not the fastest runners, but the most steady, disciplined, and patient. Whether it’s $BNB or $SOL , the same principle applies to any asset.

To be honest, I knew this theory a long time ago, but very few can truly stick to it. The key point is still that—profiting and securing the gains is the real success.

Oh, this is exactly what I've been saying all along: self-control is the greatest superpower. Otherwise, how can we explain those accounts being wiped out?

The most heartbreaking thing is cashing out and feeling secure; I've seen too many accounts with impressive numbers but never withdrawing the last cent.

To be honest, I've been using this methodology for a while, but the key is to control my impulses. My biggest problem now is that I really can't handle sideways markets; I keep wanting to mess around and end up losing. It seems I still need to learn more from this friend who hasn't placed a single trade.

That was pretty harsh... but that's really how it is. My biggest problem is that once my account hits 100,000, I start fantasizing, and as a result, I get stopped out. I really should learn from this guy who just withdraws directly.

From 3,000 to 150,000, how steady is this pace... But the real thing is the "cash out" at the end. I've seen too many accounts with impressive numbers but unable to withdraw before.

To be honest, I've heard this logic countless times before—it's the "secure your gains" approach. But very few people actually manage to stick with it... Let's see how long they can hold on.

Wow, this routine, how do I feel like I've seen it somewhere... But the fact that cashing out is safe really hit me. I'm the kind of fool who watches the account numbers skyrocket, only to be wiped out in an instant by a single scam.
