A friend who works in operations in Hangzhou reached out to me a while ago. He's 25 years old and previously lost over 80,000 in contracts. He told me that his biggest fear isn't the account balance, but that he gets trembling hands when looking at the charts, yet he can't bring himself to close his positions. I understand that feeling.
My advice to him was quite simple—divide your positions, observe the trend, set moving stop-losses. Nothing fancy. He stuck with it for a while, and now his account has gradually grown from 20,000 back to 50,000. Although he's still a bit away from his initial capital, he told me his biggest takeaway was "finally being able to sleep peacefully."
You know, there’s really nothing new about trading methods. Open any trading manual, and it all boils down to three things—manage your position size, be patient, and stick to your discipline. But why do most people still fail?
The answer is harsh: when your mindset collapses first, your actions will inevitably distort. Once panic sets in, all the K-line analysis and risk models become useless. People start gambling, chasing highs, and going all-in. The outcome is pretty predictable.
I’m not here to tell stories or make guarantees. What I can do is break down for you the things that those who survive and truly make money keep doing over and over. If you have no confidence in anyone, just try this starting tonight—halve your position size, write your stop-loss clearly on paper, and once you're done, close your trading app.
Try it for just one week, and you'll realize one thing: staying calm is already a form of winning.
Walking this path alone is indeed exhausting. Having someone to walk with means you won’t be stumbling around in the dark alone.
