#ETH走势分析 $ZEC When I first entered the space, I was as clueless as every newbie.

If BTC rose by 300, I’d go all in; if ETH dropped 20%, I’d go all in to catch the bottom. I stared at the charts until my eyes hurt, and my mood swung up and down with every candlestick. At 3 a.m. I was still refreshing the market, only to wake up and see my account deep in the red.

I lost so much I started to question my life—my money was shrinking, and so was my confidence. The stories of 10x and 100x returns that others flaunted always felt like they were separated from me by a glass wall.

Then, the turning point came suddenly. One day, I was staring blankly at my account and suddenly realized: it’s not that the market doesn’t give opportunities, it’s that I was too chaotic.

I threw out all the flashy strategies and kept just four iron rules:

Only touch core assets. $BTC and $ETH are my main holdings; I stopped listening to those stories about 100x or 1000x small coins.
Stop-loss is in my DNA. If losses exceed a set ratio, I cut immediately—no wishful thinking about rebounds.
Take profit when it’s there. Withdraw profits as soon as I make them—better to secure the bag than gamble for more.
Don’t chase hypes. If the market isn’t moving, I wait. The market won’t hand out money just because I’m impatient.

And then? I stuck to this for three months.

600U slowly grew to 10,000U. Nothing dramatic—no insider tips, no dumb luck. Every trade followed the rules: calmly taking profits on gains, cutting losses without hesitation.

Looking back, every moment of patience and restraint during those three months was actually adding to my account.

Most people in crypto die from two things: greed and panic. If you want too much, you can’t chew it all; if you panic, everything falls apart. The ones who survive are those who treat discipline as their daily bread and patience as their weapon.

Turning 600U into 10,000U wasn’t luck—it was treating every trade like an exam, grinding it out to the end.

You ask how I’m doing now? Still on the journey, but at least I’m not panicking anymore.

What about you? Are you still chasing those elusive get-rich-quick stories, or are you ready to settle down and grind it out with the market?

What you said is absolutely right. Those four iron rules really need to be engraved in your mind, otherwise you'll end up chasing highs and getting cut again. People are still easily controlled by greed. When they see others making tenfold gains, they just can't sit still... Your three-month experience is a living textbook. The key is that many people know the principles but can't put them into practice. Very few can actually execute stop-losses. Agreed, discipline is the core to surviving long-term. It's worth more than any technical analysis. But going from 600U to 10,000 in that range—luck still played a part, after all, the market has to cooperate. That's the truth of trading: 99% of people die from greed, the 1% who survive rely on self-discipline. I couldn't hold it together either. I used to watch others go all in, and ended up losing so much it felt like I landed in the ICU.

To be honest, turning 600U into 10,000U sounds great, but how many people actually survive? Most still die waiting for "just a bit longer." --- Cutting losses is easy to say but hard to do. I've tried, but when I watch the coin drop, I really can't bring myself to sell. --- Discipline as your main meal? Haha, every time the market moves, my discipline gets shot full of holes. --- After reading so many stories, it seems like the successful ones are just those who survive; the ones who die don’t get to tell their tales. --- For me, piling up core assets like BTC and ETH is indeed stable, but the mental discipline required is much harder than picking coins. --- This strategy sounds good, but the key is how long you can stick with it. I bet most people will be chasing the next hot trend again in three months.

I have to say, those four iron rules sound really reasonable, but actually putting them into action is a whole different story. Saying "cutting losses should be in your DNA" is easy, but when you’re staring at your account dropping below your psychological threshold in the middle of the night, who doesn’t want to step in and help, haha.

Sounds nice, but in reality, just surviving is already a win. I also learned this lesson after losing from 5,000 USDT to just over 2,000... Now I’m just holding on to BTC and ETH, not even looking at anything else.

To be honest, I really don't have the patience to cash out after rolling 600U to 10,000. Cutting losses sounds easy, but once the market moves, I forget everything. Like I always say, greed is the original sin.
