Crypto Profit Diary: From 2,000U to 20,000U Not Thanks to Skills, Only Thanks to Discipline

I have been in the crypto market long enough to realize a very harsh truth: most losers are not because of lack of knowledge, but because they cannot control themselves. They learn all kinds of indicators, draw extremely accurate trendlines, read news faster than others… but in the end, still blow up their accounts. Meanwhile, those who make sustainable profits often use extremely “stupid” methods: entering trades slowly, taking profits early, not going all-in, not showing off. Personally, in just over 2 months, I increased my account from 2,000U to nearly 20,000U. No secret tricks, no predicting tops and bottoms – just discipline and consistent execution. Number 1 Survival Principle: Capital Management – Never Use More Than 30% of Your Account My first ironclad rule is: The total capital participating in the market never exceeds 30% of the account. Even if the market surges strongly, even if “everyone is showing profits,” I still do not break this rule. How I Enter and Exit Trades Divide capital into 3 equal partsUse only 1 part at a time to enter a tradeWhen the price increases by 10–20% → take partial profitThe remaining part continues to be held to “let the profits run” Conversely: Never average down on a falling priceNo “buy more cheaply”No holding positions or exiting completely when the trend breaks 👉 The reason is very simple: Crypto is too volatile, just one deep drop with a heavy position can wipe out the account. Reducing capital helps stabilize psychology, enough clarity to follow the big trend. Only Follow Major Trends – Only Trade Leading Coins I don’t touch meme coins, trash coins, or “100x trades.” For me, those are not investments, but lotteries. My Trading Portfolio Only Contains: Bitcoin (BTC)Ethereum (ETH) Why? High liquidityHard to manipulateClear, long-lasting trendsSuitable for riding big waves How I Follow the Trend No need for “perfect technical breakouts”Just need the price to break above the previous high + confirmed by volumeEnter in small parts:First time: 10%Second time: add 5–10% as the trend continuesWhen the market stalls → gradually withdraw I accept missing out on 90% of crazy rallies because what I need is to keep the account intact when big opportunities arise. Capitalize on Capital – “Slow and Steady” Always Wins Over “Fast and Reckless” All capital is always divided into small parts to control risk. For example: 2,100U → divided into 3 parts, each 700U Usage Rules Trend unclear → only use 1 partProfits > 20% → only then use the second partOnly increase position when the account is in profit Absolutely: Never hold lossesToo eager to “recover”No emotional trading 👉 I set strict rules: Losses > 15% in a day → stop tradingProfits > 20% in a day → also stop Because both gains and losses can easily cause people… to lose control. The Market Doesn’t Kill You – It’s Your Psychology That Finishes Your Account I’ve seen too many traders: Skilled technicallyCorrect analysisBut:Greedy when prices risePanic when prices fall Cutting losses when losingTaking profits but not closing 👉 Result: wipe out completely How I Deal with Emotions Every trade has a fixed stop-loss (for example -8%)Take profits according to plan: +20% → withdraw 50%+50% → exit completelyDo not change the plan once in a trade Especially with derivatives trading: Getting hit with 2 consecutive losing trades → take at least 1 hour offLarge profits → leave the screen immediately Crypto doesn’t require daily trading. It only needs you to show up a few times a year – with a clear mind. Conclusion: “Stupid” Method Is Actually the Hardest My approach may seem very boring: No bottom fishingNo selling at the topNo hot tradesNo showing off profits But it helps me: SurviveAccumulatingGrow the account through big waves If you are losing money, ask yourself: Are you always entering trades too heavily?Are you caught up in trash coins?Are you always trying to recover quickly? 👉 There are no shortages of opportunities in crypto – only a lack of disciplined people waiting. Fast money is an illusion. Sustainable money is the result of self-control. Hold capital – follow trends – live long enough. You will win most of the market.
