The most terrifying thing in the crypto world is not getting liquidated itself, but the mentality of still harboring luck after being liquidated, wanting to turn things around but finding no correct direction.



I once lost over 100,000 in the cryptocurrency market, and my account was almost wiped out overnight, leaving only 1000 USDT. Every time I see this number, I can only stare blankly at the screen, not even daring to open the trading software.

That period felt like a year, I was constantly stopping losses even in my dreams. The first thing I did every morning was check the candlestick chart, and the situation just kept getting worse.

I am completely numb, and my family also suggests that I give up, believing that the entire digital currency market is a scam. But when you are unwilling to accept it in your heart, you always want to try one more time to turn the situation around.

1000 USDT, not too much and not too little. I told myself, this is the last opportunity, I can no longer take blind risks, I must change my trading strategy and mindset.

After that, I completely changed my trading style: no longer going all-in, no longer blindly over-leveraging, no longer trading in sideways markets, and only focusing on high win-rate small-scale trend trades.

My first trade was to follow the bullish trend on the Bitcoin 4-hour chart, taking a light position for a trial trade, making a small profit of 20%. I started to only participate in market movements that I truly understood.

The core of doubling funds is not frequent trading, but rather grasping the "sense of rhythm"; every trade requires strategic thinking and cannot be rushed.

Through 17 days of patient accumulation, I grew from 1000 USDT to 5000 USDT. During this period, I also experienced drawdowns, but I always adhered to a core principle: only use one-third of the capital to enter each time, with the remaining funds as a risk control buffer, and only use the profit portion to increase my position.

Some people think this is just luck, but behind it are countless meticulous operational decisions — position allocation methods, entry point selection, when to be in cash and take a break, etc. If you do not understand these, even if you are given 10000USDT, you will get liquidated again.

Later, a trader asked me how this trading method was formed. I replied: If you really want to achieve financial turnaround, don't blindly follow others' trading signals. The market has opportunities every day, but we only have one life.

If your current situation is similar to mine back then, with little left in your account, there's no need to be too discouraged. There is a way to turn things around; it's just that no one is guiding you on how to move forward, and you need to explore and find it yourself.
