On the third day of entering the circle, I lost half a month's salary? That's a nightmare for many beginners. I’ve been there too—started with 20,000 yuan, and within a few days, my account was down to 8,000. That feeling really makes you want to smash your phone. Chasing rallies, panic selling, blindly adding leverage—every decision feels like self-destruction.
After lying down for three days to reflect, I figured out a principle: in this circle, surviving is far more valuable than getting rich overnight. With the three sets of methodologies I summarized later, I turned 20,000 into 100,000 in four months, without a single liquidation.
**First Trick: Position Control, Never Go All-In**
Any opportunity, your initial position should never exceed 30%. I did this last year when bottom-fishing—start with 30% to test the waters, confirm the trend, then add to the position gradually. The benefit is that you can participate in the market while keeping some capital for a comeback. Opportunities are everywhere every day, but if your capital is gone, you're truly out.
**Second Trick: Stop Loss and Take Profit Must Be Executed**
I once stubbornly held on out of greed, and a profitable trade ended up losing me 2,000 yuan. Now, the rules are strict: never let a loss exceed 4%, and lock in profits between 8% and 12%, then close the position directly. Better to earn less than to get liquidated.
**Third Trick: Don’t Touch What You Don’t Understand**
In the early days, I followed the hype and traded so-called hot coins, losing half in three days. Now, I only trade coins whose whitepapers I can understand, with clear team backgrounds and practical application scenarios. Better to miss out on some opportunities than to fall into traps.
In these four months, my practical data shows: 56 trades, a success rate of 68%, and a net profit of 80,000 yuan purely from take profits. No chasing hot trends, no gambling-style all-in, trading more when the market is bullish, staying out during turbulence—that’s the right way to survive in this circle.
Honestly, the market won’t run away, opportunities are always there. As long as you haven’t been liquidated, it means you’re still in the game.

I also experienced the moment when I lost 20,000 to 8,000, really, the day I dropped my phone on the ground three times.

Listen, I agree with 30% of the position building, but honestly, a 68% success rate is a bit inflated in this circle. I died the same way last year; no matter how strict the rules are, they can't withstand a black swan.

68% success rate? Ha, that data sounds a bit unbelievable, but what you said about stop-loss makes sense. I used to hold on stubbornly too, almost wiped out my account.

Really, the whole "all-in" strategy should have died long ago. Almost everyone around me who blew up their accounts because of it has at least 80 out of 100.
The three points this brother mentioned really hit home, especially the part about stop-loss. It seems simple but is actually the biggest test of human nature. I’ve also paid a lot of tuition fees to understand this...
But I want to ask, how is the 68% success rate data calculated? Does it only count closed positions or does it include those that blow up and go to zero directly...
The 8-12% take profit range is a bit conservative, right? When the market is good, you get cut off. But low risk is really true...
The most important thing is still mindset. No matter how good the method is, if the user’s mindset is unstable, it’s all useless. This is more valuable than anything...
