Turning 2,000 yuan into 50,000 in three months sounds like a fairy tale, but I want to tell you—it's not luck, but quitting a deadly habit: fantasizing about getting rich overnight.

I used to be the same, repeatedly losing money until I realized: you must manage your funds separately. Lock most of your principal and avoid touching it easily; only use a small portion of profits to roll over trades. Even if you hit a trap, the main loss is your earned money, while the principal remains safe.

Later, I summarized three key principles, now sharing them with you:

**First, follow a clear trend.** Don’t guess; look at the daily chart, and only consider entering when it’s clearly in an upward channel. Then patiently wait for a pullback, and act when the price retraces near the moving average support level. Don’t add to your position until the momentum has fully turned strong—that’s the bottom line.

**Second, divide profits into three parts immediately after gains.** Every time your account’s floating profit reaches about 2%, split the profits: one part withdraws and takes the profit, one part continues to roll over in the market, and one part is saved as a buffer against risk. Meanwhile, gradually raise your stop-loss line to protect realized gains from slipping away.

**Third, operate at most twice a day, then log off.** It’s not that more frequent trading makes more money; quite the opposite. I set a rule to limit myself to no more than two trades per day, and when the time’s up, I close the trading software. Spend a few minutes at night reviewing the day’s decisions, noting what was done right and what went wrong. This helps avoid falling into the same trap repeatedly.

Let’s talk about actual trades. ETH started consolidating sideways at previous high levels. I tried a position at the support level, and after about 3% profit, I partially took profits. When ARB hit a key support zone, I entered accordingly and smoothly gained around 2%. BNB followed after a volume breakout above resistance, further boosting the account.

What do these trades have in common? It’s not that I have extraordinary prediction skills, but that I strictly follow trend judgment, position rules, and stop-loss discipline. The seemingly insignificant 2% daily gain, if consistently executed, can compound into quite substantial returns over time.

To put it simply, most losses in trading aren’t because the market is too difficult, but because they are defeated by their own impulses. Frequent trading without rules only makes losses snowball. Instead of chasing unrealistic doubling of profits, it’s better to establish a trading system that keeps you rational and disciplined. That’s the real path ordinary people can grasp.

What you need isn’t more anxiety and information overload, but a set of rules that keep you calm and disciplined. Trading is really like that—mindset and execution are often more critical than prediction ability.
