The account skyrocketed from 3,000U to 200,000U. This is not luck, but rather my gradual understanding of the underlying logic of market operation.



Looking back on this journey, a few months ago my account was still at 3,000U, and every step was like walking on thin ice. Now breaking through 200,000U, the ceiling for low capital counterattacks is far lower than I imagined.

In the early days, I was no different from most people—taking profits and closing positions, holding on stubbornly when losing. After earning 15%, I hurriedly closed the position, only for the market to continue soaring, and I watched the opportunity slip away. That feeling was more painful than losing money directly.

This lesson forced me to change my entire logic. I started letting profits generate more profits, no longer aiming to exit completely every time, but adding positions at key points. Adding to a position is not impulsive gambling, but making profits grow like a snowball.

When the price retraced to my preset range, I added to my position. The profit curve began to steepen at a visibly rapid rate.

The most exciting was the third wave of the market, especially that $DUSK move. At that time, many people were calling the top and rushing to close, but my indicators showed there was still more room. I increased my position. As a result, that wave pushed my account from five figures to six figures, and I was trembling.

Someone asked, aren’t you afraid of getting caught? How do you know the market isn’t over? The answer is actually very simple—I don’t gamble; I rely on data.

I look at three conditions: whether the trend strength is enough, whether the retracement is within expectations, and whether the position size is reasonable. Only when all three are met do I dare to go in; if one isn’t right, I stay in cash and wait for opportunities. When others panic, I dare to add to my position; when others are greedy, I can decisively exit.

A core idea: when funds should explode, dare to explode; when it’s time to take profits, definitely take profits. Market opportunities are everywhere; what’s truly scarce is having the right direction, the right rhythm, and the ability to survive.

This is the key that took me from initial difficulties to where I am now.

This story sounds just like my own journey from a few years ago, when I also had a short-sighted mindset and kept getting slapped in the face. Going from 3k to 200k sounds unbelievable, but when you think about it, it's just how it is. The key is still mindset and execution. The ones who truly make money are not those who predict correctly once or twice, but those who live long enough and die slowly.

Honestly, it's a bit outrageous—rising from 3,000 to 200,000... Just looking at the numbers, I need to calm down. But when it comes to adding positions, what you said does make sense; I'm just worried that most people simply can't handle that mental preparation. Did that wave of DUSK really make a profit? Or is it just armchair strategizing after the fact?

nah the dusk pump was textbook liquidity fragmentation play, but here's the thing — those retracement zones he's citing? they're exactly where bridge exploits historically trigger. seen this movie before, slippage tolerance gets you rekt when tvl migrations happen mid-position. not hating the gains, but that "three conditions" framework screams survivorship bias to me.

Honestly, this set of logic sounds great but how many beatings does it take to truly understand it? Closing positions vs adding positions is just a matter of mindset. Many people take profits at 15% and then run, only to regret it later. I was also involved in that DUSK wave. Not many can hold on; most people were already panicked and closed out early. Talking about the snowball effect is easy, but the premise is that you have to survive until the snowball forms. How many people died halfway through? It's not about gambling but about calculating with data. It sounds nice, but the key is, how did you tune those data parameters? What about the trial-and-error costs? I believe in exiting when others are greedy, but most people only realize at the last moment that they've become the bagholder.
