On the day I deposited 800U into the account, I set a strict rule for myself—treat this money as four lives. Each life is 200U, and once one is used up, it's like restarting the game.
A sticky note is贴 on the edge of the screen, with four sentences written on it: Focus on #香港稳定币监管框架 and $ETH, don't touch anything else. Each transaction can lose up to 3%, and exit when you earn enough 6%. Make money by adding up, lose money by shrinking down. Go to bed at a fixed time, don't stare at the market until dawn.
The first two weeks felt like running a stall in a vegetable market, with constant small transactions. It went from 800 to 880, and then crawled up to 1000. The numbers on the account moved slowly, but I wasn't worried; instead, I took the profits out and gave myself a fifth chance.
The turning point occurred in the third week. The BTC daily candlestick with volume directly pierced through the 30-day moving average, and I knew the opportunity had come. I put my 400U profit in all at once, with a stop loss still at 3%, but raised the take profit to 12%. Four days later, I woke up to find my account had first broken through 1600U.
The first thing is not to increase the position, but to withdraw all the principal 800U and lock it in a cold wallet. From that moment on, I told myself: what I am playing with now is all given by the market.
After the principal was secured, I became even more cautious. I split the 1600U into three parts: 60% for short-term rotations, 30% to wait for a weekly pullback to buy, and the remaining 10% as a buffer for transaction fees. In the next two months, I caught the wave of ETH's upgrade expectations and grasped the rhythm of capital rotation. The account grew from 1600 to 3600, then rolled to 7200. I took out 800U from my cold wallet and bought myself a second-hand monitor as a souvenir.
After breaking ten thousand, the single position limit was raised to 20%, but a strict rule was added: if the daily drawdown exceeds 5%, immediately cut the position in half. Later, I encountered two instances of sharp declines and negative policy news, and it was this rule that pulled me back.
By the early morning of March 14, 2024, the account was frozen at 160,000U. I took a screenshot and threw it into the old group that hasn't spoken in a long time, with just three words. No one replied, but the private message box immediately exploded.
To summarize the entire process, there are three points: Single transaction loss is locked within 2% of total funds, and profit increase does not exceed half of the previous profit. Only act when all three conditions are met: daily line breakout + increased trading volume + mainstream cryptocurrencies. Find divergence signals at the 5-minute level, confirm at the 15-minute level, and set the range at the 1-hour level before entering the market.
There are no secrets, just engrave the rules into your bones and wait for the wind to come.

800U flipped to 160K, the capital efficiency... let me calculate the compound return rate, hmm, it's crucial to lock the stop loss at 2%. The rest is just technique, this is the principle.

Discipline is really the cheapest tool for making money, more effective than any indicator.

Wow, this discipline is really amazing, it's tougher than 95% of the people I've seen. That cold wallet move is truly the key to everything.

800U flipped to 160000U... this is the power of the death rule, I have to admit I am tempted.

The phrase "rules are etched in the bones" is amazing; it's the part that many people can't achieve. It looks simple, but it's actually the most difficult.

Wow, this take profit and stop loss are much better than my stubborn trading, and I'm still trading out of spite.
