I have also stumbled on this path before. Back then, I was glued to the candlestick charts all day, studying various indicator systems, thinking I had found the winning formula. It wasn't until I experienced two margin calls that I realized—complexity does not equal professionalism.

My account kept shrinking, and my mindset collapsed. Until one day, I decided to abandon those flashy methods and turn to the simplest trading approach in the crypto world. Not seeking perfection, just following straightforward rules.

Surprisingly, it was this seemingly "foolproof" logic that gradually pushed my account from over 2,000 to more than 130,000. Sometimes, simplicity is the highest form of trading philosophy.

That's the truth. I also learned it from a full-position liquidation.

In plain terms, I had already scanned those two liquidation addresses of yours long ago. The on-chain footprints are clear—high leverage, frequent trading, rapid fund movements. Now, the successful accounts are also quite interesting; the fund flows are surprisingly stable, resembling the operational rhythm of a dormant wallet suddenly becoming active.

Really, I experienced a margin call once too, that feeling... Never mind, I won't bring it up. Simple and straightforward methods tend to be more profitable; complicated things just end up hurting yourself. I need to try this logic, but I feel it's still easy to lose my temper. From 2k to 130k, how long does that take? Tell me the details. The worst part is knowing the simple method, but still can't change old habits when executing.
