#ETH巨鲸增持 In the beginning, I was a typical impulsive trader - chasing after rises and panicking during falls, opening positions more than ten times a day.

$ZEC When a big bullish candle appears, I jump right in, only to find that the next day it retraces and I get trapped; I set a stop-loss line, then delete it, then regret deleting it. Making a few dozen U is worth a screenshot for social media, but losing a hundred or so makes me lie in bed staring at the ceiling in a daze.

$ORCA To be honest, the market loves to deal with people like this. The more eager you are to get rich quickly, the more it makes you pay tuition fees.

The real turning point was after the third account zeroing.

That time I stared at the balance for half an hour in a daze, suddenly realizing one thing: to survive, retail investors should not rely on predicting where the next market trend will be, but rather manage themselves to avoid unnecessary actions.

Since then, I forced myself to change three bad habits:

**First, do not bet big, only seize stable opportunities.**

While others chase breakouts, I wait for pullbacks; while others bottom-fish, I wait for trend confirmation. Watching people in the group flaunt tenfold or hundredfold gains every day, I hold back and remain still. Am I slow? Yes, but every step I take is solid.

**The second rule, always leave room in your position.**

While others are fully leveraged, I only enter a position with at most 30%; while others take high leverage risks, I can't even be bothered to touch three times. It's not that I'm afraid of losing, but I want to give myself the qualification to make mistakes. Only those who can withstand fluctuations are worthy of enjoying the main upward trend.

**Rule 3, admit it when the plan fails.**

If the direction is wrong, withdraw immediately, and cut losses without hesitation. This is the most difficult part because every time you close a position, it feels like cutting flesh. But no matter how good your skills are, it’s pointless without discipline.

Many people see me grow from 1000U to 90,000U and think it's luck. In fact, they don't know how many times I've been liquidated and the sleepless nights I've had, which are more than the times they've placed orders.

This industry never lacks smart people; what it lacks are those who can get back up after falling.

Looking back at these past few months, what truly holds value is not the account numbers, but finally engraving the three things of "small opportunities, light positions, and discipline" into muscle memory.

What about you now? Are you still mindlessly chasing rises and falls? Or have you prepared yourself to be a long-termist?
