#美联储降息 🔥After turning 1500U into 23,000U, I deleted him from my friends list.

$ETH His initial state was very miserable—trading penny coins with a ragtag army, getting margin called three times in two days, and even losing his rent.

$SOL He had no idea what risk management was, and was completely clueless about position sizing. His mind was only filled with hopes of a big comeback through all-in bets.

$BEAT I didn’t teach him any candlestick theory, nor did I explain chart patterns. I only gave him three survival rules.

Four months. His account grew from 1500U to 23,000U.

Then I blocked him.

**Rule 1 — Play with three separate amounts.**

Split 800U into three parts:

300 for day trading, only one trade per day, close the software as soon as he gains 5%;

300 for waiting for opportunities, hold firm if support levels aren’t hit;

200 as emergency funds, never touch under any circumstances.

He was unhappy: "Such a small principal, I’ll be waiting forever."

It wasn’t until he saw his office buddy wipe out his entire position in one go that he finally split his money.

**Rule 2 — Only ride the main upward wave, don’t chase after consolidations.**

Most of the time, the market is in a garbage zone. I told him to go to the gym during sideways periods.

ADA had a full week of consolidation. He messaged me at midnight: "Is it worth lurking now?"

I replied: "Wait for volume."

The next trading day, a huge bullish candle broke out, and he gained 18%.

That’s when he truly understood — “Doing nothing is a hundred times better than reckless action.”

Whenever he made more than 15% profit, I forced him to withdraw one-third.

Bank transfer notifications are much more real than the numbers on the screen.

**Rule 3 — Use a system to control yourself.**

Set a 3% stop-loss on each trade, trigger automatic close;

When profits reach 8%, immediately move the stop-loss to the original capital.

But after his account broke 20,000U, he changed.

Started to slack off in the signal group, mocking others: "How can you make big money with such small guts?"

Leverage maxed out, chasing MEME coins, resulting in a 50% drawdown of his principal.

He sent a long message at midnight:

"Bro, if I had gone all-in back then, I’d be at 50,000 now."

I pulled out that sentence he said before — "Thanks for teaching me risk control" —

and finally understood:

Crypto isn’t a place to eliminate the poor, but to weed out gamblers who don’t follow the rules.

Before deleting him, I sent one last message:

“1500 to 23,000, not by luck or market conditions, but by rules. Rules keep you alive; confidence can make you lose everything.”

In trading, discipline is always the first and most vital lifeline.
