#MSCI未来或纳入数字资产财库企业 How does it feel for an account to drop from 100,000 USDT to 5,000 USDT? I have a user who personally experienced such despair.
Last year, he投入了10万USDT into the crypto market all at once, but after half a year of trading, he was wiped out. Multiple trades in and out every day, eyes glued to the 1-minute K-line, FOMOing into market swings, chasing meme coins, betting on rebounds... Transaction fees ate up more profit than gains. The more he fell, the more anxious he became; the more anxious, the more chaotic. In the end, he couldn't even tell which trade caused the loss.
When he came to me, he was already desperate. I told him one thing: stop being a "machine gun" firing wildly, and learn to be a "sniper" aiming precisely.
I set three unbreakable bottom lines for him:
**First: Only focus on high-confidence major trends.** Ignore all "noise" on the 1-hour chart, lock your attention on the larger structure of 4 hours and above. Limit yourself to a maximum of 3 trades per day; if no good setups, stay in cash and observe. Missing one opportunity won't cost you, but making a wrong trade can lead to big losses.
**Second: Be willing to amplify wins and cut losses decisively.** Do not risk more than 10% of your total capital per trade; once you gain 20%, take half profits to lock in gains, and trail the rest with a moving stop-loss; if losses reach 5%, cut immediately—no adding to losing positions, no gambling, no fantasies.
**Third: Discipline above all.** After two stop-losses, enforce a pause for reflection; review and record every trade; never let emotions dictate your actions.
After three months, looking at his account again, there was no overnight riches story, but the funds were steadily recovering. His entire trading rhythm had completely changed—from reckless to calm, from random copying to precision.
Opportunities in the crypto world are not lacking; what’s missing is the skill to survive and make money. Those who truly turn things around have always learned how to survive, not how to make quick money. As long as the principal remains, there is hope for a comeback.
