#数字资产动态追踪 At 31 years old, I went completely bankrupt. My startup failed, my divorce was finalized, and I was left with only 4,976.33 yuan in my bank account.



Living in a 15-square-meter rented room, I made a decision: to bet my last chips on the crypto market. The following days were a battle against human nature.

**First Bottom Line: Profits Must Be Locked In Immediately**
As soon as a single trade reaches a 10% profit of the principal, I will withdraw 50% into a cold wallet. No greed, no bottom fishing, and I won't wait for that illusory 50% return. Over eight years, I have executed 37 such "profit freezes," the largest being 260,000 USDT withdrawn at once, which even triggered anti-money laundering alerts from the exchange. But that doesn't matter—what really goes into my pocket is the profit. The rest are just numbers on paper.

**Second Ironclad Rule: Market Fluctuations Are Opportunities to Make Money**
Instead of guessing bull and bear cycles, it's better to set up "toll booths" in the gaps between bullish and bearish trends. For the same trading pair, I will simultaneously place a breakout long order and a pullback short order, preparing for both sides. The key is that stop-loss settings must be extremely strict—limiting each loss to a maximum of 1.5%.

I remember the night of the 2022 FTX collapse, when the entire market was shattered, filled with news of liquidations and bankruptcies. That day, my hedging portfolio gained 41% against the trend. While everyone was bleeding, I was counting money.

**Third Principle: Stop-Loss Is the Cost of Entry**
Treat each 1.5% stop-loss as the entry fee. Honestly, my trading win rate is only 36%—in other words, six out of ten trades are losses. But that doesn't prevent me from making steady profits because each loss is kept minimal, while each profit can reach 5.1 times the loss. The math is simple: small losses paired with big gains, and the overall account remains positive.

I have set three iron rules for myself: divide funds into ten parts, no single trade exceeds one part; after two consecutive losses, automatically stop trading for 24 hours to cool off; once the account doubles, take 30% to buy government bonds and gold for hedging.

Now, at 39 years old, my account assets have entered the eight-figure range. What makes me even prouder is—zero liquidation record. Zero.

In this market, systematic traders survive longer, while casual traders are eliminated. After going through several bull and bear cycles, I understand: it’s not about who sees the market more accurately, but who has stronger discipline. Trading ultimately comes down to self-discipline.

36% win rate can still be consistently profitable? That's the power of risk management. Much more reliable than those who boast about their win rate every day.

There's nothing wrong with what you're saying; the key is self-discipline... But daring to boast with a 36% win rate, I wonder how this data was obtained.

It sounds nice, but I just want to ask—how can a 36% win rate achieve stable profits? Is math really that simple? I feel like I've heard too many stories like this.

36% win rate still profitable? The math is indeed clever, just worried about not being able to stick to this discipline.
