I've seen too many people in the crypto world get wrecked. The reasons seem diverse, but upon closer inspection, they all point to the same problem: losing control of oneself.



From an initial 20,000 yuan to now 1.4 million, I haven't relied on any sophisticated theories or predicted any major market moves. Instead, I used the most "simple" method, gradually enduring step by step.

**Other people's routines vs. my approach**

You see those who chase trends all day in the crypto space, opening dozens of trades overnight, eyes red just by looking at the K-line. As for me, on the contrary—at most one or two trades a day, and I have to resist the urge when my hands get itchy.

Others focus on small coins, hoping to get rich overnight. I only pay attention to a few mainstream coins. It may sound boring, but this boredom has saved me several times.

And then there's mindset. When others are excitedly watching the market, I just watch like a spectator. I only act when it's truly time to move; otherwise, I just wait passively.

**My method is actually very straightforward**

First, lock in 2 to 3 coins for long-term attention, and don't switch around randomly. It sounds a bit silly, but the benefit is that you can truly understand the temperament of these coins, rather than chasing this one today and that one tomorrow, always an outsider.

Second, pre-define your entry and exit prices. Wait patiently without acting until the price hits your target. The hardest part of this process isn't analysis but "waiting." Those who can wait usually make money; those in a rush often get caught.

I never over-allocate my position. I only move 1/5 to 1/3 of my account each time, never full position. Many say this is too conservative, but my logic is simple: keep enough ammunition to seize opportunities at critical moments.

Pre-set take-profit and stop-loss levels—this is the most crucial. Once a trade is placed, no matter how the market fluctuates, I don't change it on the fly. Many fail because of this—setting a stop-loss at 10%, then closing when it drops 5%, missing the rebound.

**Why does the "simple method" actually make money?**

The market doesn't really kill those without skills. It actually kills those who think they're smart—those who love predicting trends, doubling down, going all-in on bets. Their final outcome is usually liquidation.

And I rely on "patience" and "endurance," carving out a way to survive.

**My real experience**

Starting with 20,000 yuan, life was really tough at first. Initially, it was small gains and small losses, with the account fluctuating between 10,000 and 30,000. There was a period when it even dropped back to just over 10,000. At that time, I really wanted to add more to recover, but I held back.

Just sticking to the "simple" approach—no adding, no reckless moves—I endured. Over two years, the account doubled and then doubled again, finally reaching 1.4 million. There were several big drawdowns along the way, but each time I followed my discipline and held on.

**Can you replicate this result?**

Yes, but you need to be mentally prepared for two things: first, to endure loneliness; second, to resist temptation.

When you see others making 100% in a month, and you're still waiting for your entry point, that feeling isn't pleasant. When everywhere you see "tomorrow coins will take off," and you're just watching coldly, it tests your patience.

But it's this very test that filters out most people. Those who persevere to the end will ultimately profit.

To sum up simply: allocate your positions wisely, pre-define your entries and exits, manage risk properly, and then execute, execute, and execute again.

There’s no mysterious formula—just discipline and patience.

To be honest, I've heard this logic so many times that I'm tired of it, but on the other hand... it seems that very few people can actually do it, and I am one of the negative examples myself.

Oh wow, this is the real deal, not something those who boast about their prediction skills every day can compare to.

This article is quite straightforward; it's a matter of execution. I also follow this logic myself, but to be honest, most people forget after reading it, and only a few can truly stick with it.

That's right, but so many people just can't do it. They watch others make quick money and feel an irresistible itch.

That's right, but after looking around, I think the hardest part of this theory is still the mindset... Many people talk about discipline, but their hands move incredibly fast [thinking]
