#比特币与黄金战争 From two digits to six digits, behind it is a story repeatedly taught by the market.



He once entered with over $200,000, full of confidence that smart analysis would bring stable returns. But what happened? His account shrank to only $32,000. The more painful part isn’t losing money, but knowing exactly what the problem is—frequent trading, full-position entries and exits, blindly chasing highs and selling lows—yet he couldn’t stop. After each loss, he told himself to be cautious next time, but then repeated the same mistakes.

The turning point came at 3 a.m. He closed his last order and lost another $4,700. When he shut down his computer, he felt completely drained. That sleepless night until dawn, he finally understood: in the crypto world, survival isn’t about being the smartest trader, but about being disciplined and systematic.

Over the next year, he reviewed every trade, identifying his common flaws—too slow to cut losses, too greedy on take profits, correct direction but reversing the position. Later, he summarized three iron rules: only trade $BTC (altcoins are a gamble), never risk more than 5% per trade, cut losses immediately at 3% below support, and set a risk-reward ratio of 3:1 (take profit at 3000, cut loss at 1000).

The real transformation came from execution. He built a complete trading system: first, only enter when technical signals and market structure resonate, never trade on gut feeling; second, always build positions gradually, reject all-in bets; third, increase position size moderately during growth phases, and stay strictly light on positions when the market is uncertain—execute ruthlessly like a machine.

After three months, his understanding of trading changed. He no longer seeks to make money on every trade, but to perfect the trades that can win. Now, he can achieve a daily stable profit of about $3,000, and during good market conditions, it can exceed $5,000. More importantly, he can finally sleep peacefully.

If you are also anxious about frequent margin calls and suffering from continuous losses, don’t self-criticize. The problem is often not your ability, but that you haven’t yet established your own trading system. The market doesn’t need geniuses; it needs systematic executors.

To be honest, this guy's story really hit home for me... The part about placing a flat order at 3 a.m., I totally get it. --- It's the same old story, systematic trading sounds always right, but how many people can really stick with it? --- Stable profit of $3,000 a day? That number sounds comfortable, but behind it are countless times of biting the bullet and taking losses. --- The phrase "altcoins are a gamble"—I now understand it deeply. I’ve paid a lot of tuition fees before. --- Never place orders based on feelings... sounds easy to say, but when the market is rising, who can resist FOMO? --- The most heartbreaking thing is—he knows he's wrong when he makes a mistake, but he still repeats it. That’s the most common disease in the crypto world. --- $3,000 USD per day... if it were really possible, I wouldn’t be wasting time in this group haha. --- Discipline > intelligence. I need to get that tattooed on me. --- Review trading records for an entire year; just that level of patience, 99% of people don’t have it.

That story at 3 a.m. really touched me... Honestly, compared to making money, living is the most important.

Ah, at 3 a.m., placing a flat order really hit the mark. The biggest enemy in the crypto world is that restless heart of ours... Instead of chasing highs and selling lows, it's better to learn from LP's approach—choose good liquidity depth, focus on earning fees, and enjoy the ride.
