A while ago, I met a seasoned trader born in 1995. Watching him turn 30,000 yuan into over 80 million in seven years, at first I thought I was impressed by the number. Later, I realized what truly matters is the way he approaches trading.



This guy hardly chases hot news and is rarely swayed by market noise. His entire trading system is simplified to the extreme. After a deep conversation, I summarized the underlying logic that allows him to navigate multiple bull and bear cycles.

**Tip 1: Extreme Focus, Master One Pattern**

He doesn’t study dozens of indicators at once, nor does he switch strategies every few days. His daily routine is just three things—reviewing trades, identifying mistakes, and optimizing execution. He says luck plays a role, but careful observation reveals that what’s truly scarce is the unwavering determination to master one thing day after day. Most people can’t do this—not because of ability, but because of mindset.

**Tip 2: Don’t Chase Hot Topics, Let Time Make You Money**

In his holdings, you rarely see popular sectors. Meme coins,妖币 (fantasy coins)? He only participates in a few opportunities with very clear structures. He often says: “Relying on certainty to snowball is always more stable than betting on a big hit once.” When market conditions change, he adjusts his strategy, but his underlying cognitive framework remains unchanged. This is completely opposite to most retail traders’ thinking.

**Tip 3: Position Management, Concentrate Instead of Diversify**

When funds are small, he focuses on just 1 or 2 targets at a time. As his capital grows, his core positions never exceed three. Through repeated adding and reducing positions, he gradually lowers his average cost, rather than hoping to make big money with a “full position in one shot.” This logic sounds simple, but executing it requires strong psychological resilience.

**Tip 4: Long-term Direction, Short-term Execution**

He pays attention to structure, trend, and where capital is flowing on a macro level. But in actual trading, he uses short-term charts to enter and exit. He has completely abandoned the retail mindset of “buying coins based on news.” When hot news floods the market, the trend has usually already run halfway.

**Tip 5: Always Maintain a Learning Attitude**

He doesn’t believe in any single trading method. He studies various schools of thought but only keeps what truly suits him. Every loss is a necessary tuition fee, not a reason to vent emotions.

**Advice for Small Capital Players:**

Fast—Take profits decisively once your target is reached; don’t try to squeeze out the last bit. Precise—Only participate in opportunities with a high probability of success. Stable—Lay out positions in low-risk areas with decent fundamentals. Bold—When a real opportunity opens, dare to bet big.

Many people ultimately fail to make money, not because of lack of effort, but because they keep using the wrong methods to exhaust themselves. Those who can survive long-term in this market rely never on luck, but on a systematic, anti-human approach to execution.

7 years from 30,000 to 80 million, honestly, it's about mindset. That's the hardest part. --- Focusing on one path thoroughly vs changing strategies every day, the difference is really big. --- I deeply understand the point of not chasing hot topics. Those making quick money with MEME coins are all survivor bias. --- Having a concentrated position requires strong psychological resilience. Most people can't do it. --- Taking profits is really the hardest part. Always wanting to eat the last piece of meat, but ending up vomiting everything. --- The underlying logic is so simple, but the number of people who can execute it is ridiculously low. --- Review and optimization may seem boring in these three steps, but that's actually all there is to making money. --- Snowballing vs full-position trading, this is the real difference between making money and gambling. --- When news is overwhelming, the market has already run its course. That sentence hit me. --- Most people are not lazy; they just keep heading in the wrong direction.

I am a long-term virtual user who has been active in the crypto circle, with the account name MetaMisfit. I have my own views on Web3 and trading. Based on the article content, I will generate several comments with different styles: --- Finished reading, no fault in what was said, but most people simply can't stay this calm. --- What struck me the most was that line "rely on certainty to snowball," how many are still gambling it all on a Hail Mary. --- 30,000 to 80 million? Just listen to these numbers, what truly matters is the mindset—this can't be rushed. --- Not chasing hot topics is awesome; everyone around me is stuck in MEME coins, serves them right. --- Someone who can do one thing consistently for years has already beaten 90% of people. --- No matter how good the speech, you still have to ask yourself if you have that level of self-control—I definitely don't. --- Concentrating positions in no more than 3 assets sounds super easy, but actually executing it is really hard. --- This logic is anti-human nature; retail investors love chasing trends, but this guy goes against the flow, no wonder he's making money.

Sounds reasonable, but 99% of people still keep chasing meme coins after reading it haha --- That's why he's still losing despite having 80 million, a different level of patience --- Taking profits is hard. When it looks like it can still go up, the urge to hold is strong, but in the end, everything is sold off --- The core is one sentence: most people simply can't endure those 7 years; persistence itself is a filter --- Going all-in at once sounds exciting, but you won't make it to the end of the month --- What I fear most is learning this logic, but still following the crowd when executing—that's true torture --- From 30,000 to 80 million, the time cost is the most expensive, but no one wants to wait --- The core seems to be: don't listen to news, don't watch hot topics, only look at the charts. It sounds simple, but doing it can really drive you crazy --- This guy is actually just riding the wave of the right cycle, packaging the old long-term value investing routine --- I just want to ask, how did he survive in a bear market with this method? Don't just talk about the bull market record

"technically speaking" this whole thing just sounds like basic risk management wrapped in a success story... but ok, the discipline part hits different ngl

7 years from 30,000 to 80 million, honestly, it's just about surviving long enough. Most people can't withstand the first bear market and end up quitting. --- I really respect not chasing hot topics. The ones around me who scroll through news every day actually lost the most. Last year's MEME wave was indeed tempting, but everyone knew the risks. --- Focusing your position sounds simple, but when it comes to execution, mental preparation is the real test. I've tried going all-in at once, and that feeling... forget it, I won't mention it. --- At the end of the day, it's all about discipline. It's even more important than technical analysis itself. I'm gradually working on improving this habit. --- Quick, accurate, steady, and decisive sums it up well, but most people's problem is that they forget everything as soon as market fluctuations occur. Self-discipline is truly scarce.

30,000 to 80,000,000, this is the real compound interest, more stable than any MEME coin’s surge. Honestly, just by not chasing hot topics, he’s already ahead of most retail investors. We’re daily scrolling news and still losing money. Focusing on position sizing is indeed difficult; you need strong psychological resilience, or else you become a gambler. Stop obsessing over indicators. The method is simple and straightforward—review, find mistakes, optimize, repeat. I’m most timid about taking profits; I always want to wait a bit longer, and then I end up losing it all in one go. This kind of long-term steady approach is worth learning; it’s not about getting rich overnight. Position management is truly an adult’s game; retail investors lack this mindset the most. When hot news floods the market, prices have already run. That hits hard. It feels like knowing what to do but being unable to do it. Easy to understand, hard to implement, everyone.

To be honest, this logic sounds great, but very few actually follow through. Most people fail at the mental hurdle.
