Many people ask me a question: why do some treat exchanges as ATMs, while others just keep throwing money in?



Honestly, the reason I can turn 5,000U into seven figures in 5 years is simple—calculation.

I don’t fight the market, I only do high-probability setups. While others are busy chasing hot topics, hunting airdrops, or going all-in on big hits, I do something very boring—treat the market as a machine that can be tamed. Master the rules, and let it work for me.

**Step 1: Lock in profits first, then talk about huge gains**

I always set both take-profit and stop-loss orders for each trade. Once the account profit reaches 10% of the principal, I immediately withdraw half of the profit into a cold wallet, and let the rest compound. When it rises, profits grow; when it falls, I only take the profit portion, leaving the principal untouched.

This step directly determines whether you exit alive or get buried by the market. Over 5 years, I’ve taken profits more than 30 times, with the maximum single-week withdrawal reaching 180,000U, verified by the exchange’s risk control department.

While others are researching how to double their money, I’m studying how not to die first. That’s the big difference.

**Step 2: Multi-timeframe layout, pre-placing orders at positions others get liquidated**

Look at the big trend on the daily chart, identify oscillation ranges on the 4-hour chart, and find entry points on the 15-minute chart. The same coin often involves dual positioning—one order chasing the breakout, another placed with a limit order in the high position for reverse entry. Stop-loss is controlled within 1%-1.5%, and take-profit is multiplied by 4 to 5 times the stop-loss.

When a trend arrives, I follow the trend; when the market is oscillating, others get liquidated, I collect profits. It’s that simple.

**Step 3: Stop-loss is not failure, it’s the ticket to entry**

My win rate isn’t very high, about 70%. But the risk-reward ratio remains stable above 2.2:1 in the long run. In other words—every 1 dollar lost, I can earn nearly 2 dollars back over time. If I catch just two decent trends a year, the annual returns can easily crush most financial products.

Those who truly know how to make money never chase the most wins; they study how to die the slowest and live the longest.

If your trading is chaotic, your rhythm is out of control, and you’re always on the brink of liquidation, the problem isn’t lack of market opportunities, but lack of a set of rules you can stick to. No myths, no hype—just real trading. Discipline is key, taking money out of the market one trade at a time. The path is right here, the lights are on. If you really want to get out, walk over yourself.
