#数字资产市场洞察 In early July, a trader from Zhejiang contacted me. Last year, he lost $200,000, and his account balance was only $20,000. He asked urgently, "Can this market turn around this time?"



My answer was straightforward: "First, delete the words 'break even' from your mind."

Initially, he was full of dreams of overnight riches. I immediately poured cold water on him—if you want to truly turn things around, you must first learn to stay calm. From that day on, we devised a steady trading plan.

**Strategy Rule 1: Diversify Account Management**

Divide your funds into five parts, controlling each trade at around $4,000. The benefit of this approach is that a single mistake won't be fatal. Facing various market temptations, he gradually abandoned the idea of full position trading and learned to analyze calmly and allocate rationally.

**Strategy Rule 2: Stop-Loss is the Premise of Survival**

In that ZEC trade, he was caught in the first position. According to our rules, if the floating loss reaches 4%, he must stop-loss. At that time, he must have felt uncomfortable, but four days later, ZEC suddenly dropped 14%. He avoided a massacre—this stop-loss saved him.

**Strategy Rule 3: Exit in Batches to Catch the Main Uptrend**

Take $COAI as an example. He entered at 0.16, and we reduced positions at 0.24, 0.33, and 0.42, finally clearing everything at 0.47. He fully caught the entire upward wave, and avoided the subsequent pullback. This is the real way to "eat meat."

**Strategy Rule 4: Holding Cash Is Also a Winning Strategy**

When the market was uncertain for two days, I insisted he wait. He was anxious and kept asking if he could enter. I only said one thing: "Waiting itself is the highest level of operation." When the market finally started moving, he had enough bullets and seized more opportunities.

After 50 days, his account surged to $150,000. It’s not luck or insider information, but the result of following rules step by step. No secret code, only the power of discipline.

He later laughed and said, "It turns out that stable profits don’t require any advanced theories; they are hidden in the most basic rules."

Over the years, I’ve seen many trader stories. The true test in the crypto world isn’t who makes the most money fastest, but who can survive the longest. Winners are never those with the sharpest minds, but those who can stick to the rules and keep a steady mindset. These two things are more valuable than anything else.
ZEC-1.71%
COAI-0.7%

That stop-loss move was really brilliant; many people lost everything by waiting a little longer.

Honestly, I totally understand the feeling of losing 200,000 dollars and ending up with only 20,000 USD, which is emotionally devastating. I've seen too many people like that... However, it's really not easy for this guy to be able to consistently follow the rules later on; most people can't do it.

It's the same old story... I've heard the 4% stop-loss a hundred times, and what was the result? The last time I set a stop-loss, I just sold at the floor price, and later that coin multiplied tenfold. I'm still regretting it.

That's incredible, the stop-loss order was a lifesaver. I was also caught in ZEC before, and now I'm actually scared... By the way, is this guy still trading at this pace?
