#数字资产市场动态 From $20,000 U to $800,000 U, I achieved it in 28 days—but this has nothing to do with luck at all.

In early July, a friend from Hunan reached out to me. His voice sounded very heavy:

"Last year I lost $800,000 USD, now I only have $20,000 U left... Can this market turn around?"

I didn’t comfort him, I directly said: "Don’t think about getting your money back for now, you need to stay alive first."

When he came to me, his mind was full of "quick turnaround" dreams, but I told him very realistically: "Getting anxious will only make you die faster."

We set three bottom lines that must not be crossed; if broken, there’s no point in continuing cooperation.

**First: Position Sizing — The foundation of survival**

I divided his $20,000 U into 5 parts, with each trade risking no more than $4,000 U.

Others might think this is too conservative. But you need to understand, this isn’t cowardice, it’s "if you’re wrong, you still have a chance to try again."

The biggest risk in crypto trading isn’t misjudging the direction, but making one wrong call and being completely out. The logic of position sizing is: no single trade should take your life.

**Second: Stop Loss — No such thing as 'wait and see'**

On the coin $ZEC, he entered the market and got caught immediately. When the unrealized loss was only 3.8%, I told him to cut and exit.

Many might ask, why not hold on since it’s only a small loss?

Four days later, ZEC plummeted 14%. If he hadn’t cut, his loss would have doubled.

Stop loss is never a sign of giving up. Quite the opposite, it’s telling the market: I’m awake, I’m saving bullets for the next opportunity.

**Third: Partial Exit — Don’t try to eat the last bite**

$COAI rose from 0.16, and we took partial profits at 0.24, 0.33, 0.42, finally clearing all at 0.47.

I never chase the dream of selling at the highest point. My goal is: within my understanding, to take the most stable part of the trend.

**The most challenging part is actually this**

The toughest moment for his mental resilience came from "waiting in cash."

When the market direction was unclear for two consecutive days, I insisted he not act. He got anxious, messaged me asking if he should enter. I replied: "Waiting is the smartest move."

It might sound a bit mystical, but when the market finally starts moving, he ends up catching more opportunities. Why? Because he’s not trapped in the wrong position.

**28 days’ result**

From $20,000 U to $800,000 U, about 20 trades in between.

This isn’t a story of overnight riches, but about someone finally understanding: how to use systematic rules to control their hands, how to use discipline to fight market volatility.

The most memorable thing he told me at the end was:

"The secret to consistent profits is actually hidden in those basic rules. There’s nothing profound, just doing simple things repeatedly."

In the crypto market, it’s never about who makes the most money in one shot. It’s about: who can survive longer, who can seize the right opportunities at the right time.

If you’re tired of chasing highs and selling lows, and want to replace luck with a systematic approach, try starting with these three key tactics: "Position Sizing, Stop Loss, Partial Selling."

Real turning points always come from daily discipline accumulation, never from luck.
