People often ask me: how to turn a few thousand yuan into a million-level amount?
To be honest, I have also gone through this process.
Initially, I had 7,000 yuan in hand, clenched my teeth, and exchanged it all for 1,000 USDT. At that time, I was determined—either turn things around or admit defeat. But I wasn’t foolish enough to go all-in at once; instead, I started with 200 USDT, focusing solely on the most trending coins each day. When I doubled my money, I would decisively cash out; if I lost up to 50 USDT, I would cut my losses immediately. By doing this, I won several times in a row, and my principal quickly recovered. The biggest test isn’t technical skill, but the desire to keep going—I have a habit: once a single profit exceeds a thousand yuan, I force myself to leave the screen and take a day off; I must stop.
Once my funds reached a certain level, I changed my approach and operated along three lines:
The first is short-term trading—quick in and out, never greedy; the second is dollar-cost averaging—following the market rhythm, not my mood; the third is reserving ammunition—only taking action during major market explosions.
Before placing each order, I write down two numbers clearly—sell when I reach my target profit, and accept losses when I hit my stop-loss.
People without a trading plan ultimately lose to their own emotions. Futures trading, to put it simply, is a magnifying glass—you’re right, it amplifies your correctness; you’re wrong, it amplifies your mistakes.
The four bottom lines I’ve adhered to over the years have never changed:
- Never go all-in - Each trade must have a stop-loss - No more than three trades per day - Withdraw profits immediately
I’ve seen too many people make money from a market surge, only to lose it all because they’re never satisfied. The secret to going from 1,000 USDT to where I am now is simple—be ruthless with the market, and even more ruthless with yourself.

It sounds good, but how many can actually do it? I've seen too many people read articles like this and think they're capable, only to get wiped out and end up at grandma's house within a month.

Basically, it's all about mindset. I was doing the same three years ago, and what happened... I'm still struggling and fighting now.
Just listen and don't believe that you can make millions. Those who are still around today are all survivors' bias.

That's right, stop-loss is really a watershed. Most people fail because they can't bear to cut their losses.

It sounds good, but I've seen this routine too many times. In the end, it still comes down to luck and fate.
---
It all sounds right, but only about one in ten people can actually execute it, and even less.
---
Stop-loss is easy to understand but hard to implement, especially when you see the coin price about to rebound.
---
Everything else is fine, but the key is that self-discipline of "leaving the screen." Why do I just not have this gene?
---
Operating with three lines? Are you serious, brother? I can't even manage one line.
---
From 7000 to a million, it's hard to say how much is due to this system and how much is due to market blessings.
---
Honestly, these four bottom lines are fine, but who can remember them during a bear market?
---
For brothers who went all-in and got wrecked, what do you say? This article is written for survivors who are still alive.

That's right, mindset is indeed the biggest enemy, and technical skills are secondary.
I've also tried this three-line strategy, but I couldn't stick with it; it's still easy to be swayed by the market.
Just want to ask, is your habit of forcing yourself to leave the screen and rest for a day really something you can do every time? It seems easier said than done.
Serious traders all know about stop-loss, but when you actually lose money, that mental barrier is hard to get past.
Frequent trading, with high fees and slippage, is also very problematic. How do you handle that?
I agree with the idea of withdrawing profits immediately; I've seen too many greedy traders end up losing everything.

Sounds good, but I've seen too many stories like this end without any news. The key is that most people simply can't achieve self-discipline.

That's right, stop-loss and mindset are truly the key. I've seen too many people make money and then lose it all just because of greed in that moment.

Sounds good, but are there really people who can stick to these four bottom lines? I haven't seen any.

That's right, you just need to control your greedy heart.
Take profits when you can, cut losses when needed, this is the hardest part to do.
