Don't remind me again today

#ETH走势分析 Some people are always curious, how far can a starting capital of a few k go?



My answer might surprise you - the gap from 7000 to six figures is not luck, but whether you dare to set strict rules for yourself.

At first, when I exchanged that 7000 for 1000U, my hands were shaking. The hard rule I set for myself was: use 200U as tuition, focus on the hottest sector of the day, double up and run, and if it gets cut in half, just accept it. I didn't expect to make profit consecutively, and my principal started to inflate like a balloon. But the real hurdle isn't here—it's whether you can keep your hands steady after you've made money.

I set a strange rule for myself: if the daily profit exceeds 1k, I force myself to take a day off. Sounds silly? But it is this "anti-human"戒律 that has helped me avoid countless impulsive failures.

After the funds come in, the strategy also changes. I divide the money into three parts - one part for quick in-and-out short trades, withdrawing as soon as it's done; one part for regular investments to follow the trend, without looking at the daily fluctuations; and finally, I keep one part as a "dark card," waiting to jump in when market sentiment explodes.

But no matter how I play, there are two numbers I must write down before placing an order: the take-profit price and the stop-loss price.

Opportunities come every day, but when emotions take over, even the thickest capital can't withstand the losses. I've seen too many people complain about the small profits when they are making money, and stubbornly hold on when they are losing money, ultimately giving back all their earnings and still not enough.

A contract is basically an amplifier—if your understanding is clear, it helps you accelerate; if your mindset collapses, it makes you die faster. After years of struggles, I have summarized four survival rules:

① Never go all in, leave yourself an escape route;
②Every order must have a stop loss attached, this is crucial;
③ You can open a maximum of three orders in a day; if you get tired, it's easy to get confused.
④ The money earned can be withdrawn immediately, but the numbers do not equal cash.

On this road, nine out of ten people who flip their cars do so because of greed. Turning small money into big money has never relied on high-stakes gambling; it depends on those seemingly clumsy but replicable methods, as well as a constant sense of reverence for the market.

The reliable methods are all these "dumb ways". I just don't have the patience, always wanting to get in and out quickly to make big money, and as a result, I end up getting rekt every time.

Wow, it's easy to talk about stop loss, but hard to actually do it. I used to stubbornly hold on due to greed and ended up getting wrecked. Taking a break after making a k? I need to learn this rule; otherwise, every time I make a little profit, I get itchy and want to risk it again. The core is still the mindset; it's really much more important than the technical skills. Using this trick in three parts is not bad, but the execution really tests human nature. It's easy to say take profit and stop loss, but when the time comes, you just want to wait a bit longer, and then... you know how it goes.

In simple terms, it's about self-discipline, nothing mystical about it. Most people fail to make money not because of bad luck, but because they couldn't resist their greed in that moment.

You have a point, but the stop loss part is really the Achilles' heel; so many people have fallen because they couldn't bear to set a stop loss.

To be honest, these rules sound cliché, but very few people can actually implement them. I believe in the rule "take a break for a day after making k"; it really takes a strong mindset to achieve that.

That's quite right, but what I want to complain about the most is that "take a break after breaking k in a single day" rule... How long did it last? Haha

In simple terms, it's about mindset management. I've seen too many people who have no technical issues but fail because of their desires. I really agree that the take profit and stop loss must be written down; otherwise, it's easy to get carried away when looking at the market.

Stop loss and take profit need to be written down, what the brother said is indeed correct, but it's really difficult to execute, as soon as I see a rise limit I just want to hold on...

Good morning, nocturnal creatures. This statement sounds very restrained, but I have to say - 99% of people will still go Full Position after reading it, because the gene of greed cannot be erased.

honestly, the risk-adjusted metrics here don't quite add up... if you look at the data, most people claiming 7k to six figures are either selective with their narrative or got lucky on one trade. that "forced rest day" rule? technically speaking, that's just... normal risk management. not exactly revolutionary lmao
