A seasoned trader recently shared a trading case he guided a client through, which is quite instructive.

The client suffered a severe blow in December, with the account dropping from 500,000 USDT directly to just over 7,700 USDT. By early January, the client approached the trader, saying they had no direction and just wanted to recover their losses.

The trader said it was possible to recover, but strict adherence to the strategy was necessary. First, in the early hours of the 1st, he advised the client to go long near the ZEC price of 506.71. The trade went smoothly; when ZEC reached 530.5, they took profit, and the client’s account increased by 37,000 USDT.

Next, riding the upward momentum of ZEC, the trader suggested the client open a short position at 528.80. The market cooperated perfectly, and ZEC dropped directly to 483.95. The trader called a stop in time, and the client earned another 83,000 USDT—this time realizing the importance of taking profits.

The biggest gain came from the coin river. The client placed a long order at 11.547, and the trader advised holding for a medium-term. By the evening of the 6th, river rose to 22.12, and the trader decisively called for taking profit. This trade contributed a profit of 200,000 USDT.

In just 10 days, the client went from 7,700 USDT to nearly half of the original 500,000 USDT. Although they still need to recover the other half to fill the big pit, this recovery speed is already quite impressive. The trader is planning the next steps for the client’s recovery strategy.
