#数字资产市场洞察 From 1,000 to 1,000,000: I Used the Most Rigid Rules to Live Out a Different Possibility in Life

Honestly, anyone who plays contracts has almost certainly hit the liquidation threshold. I have too.

At that time, I only had about 1,000 bucks left in my account. Logically, this small capital couldn't create much wave. But it was this 1,000 bucks that I managed to grow into 1 million in just three months.

It sounds like a fairy tale, but it's actually just an ordinary person's daily routine of counterattacking with strict discipline.

**First Month: Starting with 1,000 bucks, honing the mindset first**

I thought from the start—losing all this money doesn't matter, as long as I stay relaxed, it's easier to make the right decisions.

I set four strict rules for myself, none broken:

**Rule 1**: Only watch $BTC. The big market isn't easily manipulated.
**Rule 2**: Leverage no more than 20x. 100x leverage is too easy to drive people crazy.
**Rule 3**: Only use half of the funds each time—open a position with 500 bucks, keep the other 500 as a buffer against sudden drops.
**Rule 4**: Take profit at 10%, cut losses at 5%. Close after two trades, regardless of win or lose.

I followed these rules for half a month, turning 1,000 bucks into 3,000 bucks.

Growth was slow, but I experienced for the first time what it means to "persist and win."

**Second Month: Starting to compound and leverage discipline to increase probability**

After reaching 3,000 bucks, I began to compound. The strategy didn't change, but execution became more refined.

**Method 1**: Half-position mode—use only 1,500 bucks out of 3,000 to trade.
**Method 2**: Each time I make money, use the new profits to continue the next round—let the snowball roll itself.
**Method 3**: Once stop-loss is hit, immediately revert to the initial position and patiently rebuild.

This stage tested patience, truly.

While others got liquidated overnight, I earned a few points in a day, but I survived. In two months, 3,000 bucks grew to 100,000 bucks.

**Third Month: Waiting for a big trend and going all in**

In the third month, the market showed a clear upward trend.

I knew this was a window provided by the market.

**Adjustment 1**: Increase position to 70%. Not full position, but a heavy hand.
**Adjustment 2**: Change take-profit target from 10% to 30%.
**Adjustment 3**: Tighten stop-loss; if wrong, exit immediately—no hesitation.

That wave of market movement turned 100,000 bucks directly into 1 million bucks.

It wasn't some genius move; it was just riding the trend and executing discipline to the extreme.

**Core philosophy**

These three months taught me—there's no magic in trading. What matters are rules, patience, and self-discipline. Most people lose money not because they pick the wrong direction, but because they can't control their mindset. Once you truly develop discipline, making money becomes a natural thing.
