Woken up by my phone vibrating at three in the morning, I opened my eyes to see a screen full of green falls. That urge to throw my phone against the wall, those who understand know.
When I entered the circle, I only had 800 yuan in my pocket, a complete novice, not even able to understand K-lines. I took everything I heard as the truth, buying whatever coins others said were good, chasing highs and cutting losses like a pro. By the end of the first year, my account had shrunk to two digits, staring at those tens of yuan, I really felt that this market was not meant for ordinary people. I almost quit for good.
I never expected that seven years later, the 800 yuan I initially invested, through the trading framework I explored bit by bit, has now exceeded 30 million in asset value. Even more outrageous is that one of my students, who followed this method and practiced for three months, has doubled his capital, and now he can steadily withdraw funds every month.
Today, let’s take out the hidden things and talk about them — in this market, living longer is more important than making quick profits. An effective trading system is your armor.
**Core Method: 5-point warehouse management, I relied on it to survive three rounds of bear markets**
The most fatal mistake beginners easily make: going all in on a single asset. When it rises, they feel like a god; when it falls, they can't even recover their principal.
I have suffered this loss before. In 2018, I was impulsive and bet all my fortune on a scam project, and as a result, the project team disappeared completely, and all the money went down the drain. During that time, I couldn't sleep all night and couldn't eat anything.
After experiencing pain, I summarized the "5-point warehouse iron rule": Whether you have 1000 or 100,000, never put all your eggs in one basket. Mainstream coins, potential coins, and hedging positions should be reasonably allocated, and a single stop-loss should be strictly controlled within 20% of the total position. This rule has saved me countless times and is the fundamental reason I have survived through multiple bull and bear markets.

The feeling at three in the morning really makes me want to smash my phone, but smashing it won’t change the coin price, haha.
Going from 800 to 30 million sounds great, but to be honest, I care more about the logic of that 5% position, which feels more valuable than the story itself.
I’ve cut losses to the point of questioning my life, but now I’ve learned to be smart, yet I still easily get swept away by FOMO.
Does this system really work, or is it just hindsight wisdom?
A 20% stop loss sounds strict, but how long does it take to mentally prepare for execution?
To be honest, living long is the way to go; what happened to those who made quick money in the end?

Speaking of that wave at three in the morning, I was also awake, feeling so lost seeing the market in the red.
800 bucks could turn into 30 million, how good must one be at buying the dip? But this 5% allocation strategy is indeed reliable, much more rational than my previous all in.

ngl the 3am green screen energy hits different... but here's the thing—capital allocation across positions isn't just risk management, it's opportunity cost optimization. spreading into five tranches? that's basically hedging against your own conviction, which... fair actually

That moment at three in the morning was truly incredible; I understand that feeling of wanting to smash your phone.
To be honest, a 5% allocation sounds good, but very few people can actually stick to it. Most of the time, it's human nature at play.
30 million is indeed hardcore, but hearing stories like this too often can lead to aesthetic fatigue... By the way, how much is left of that 800 you initially had?
You’re right about allocation management, but the key is how to determine which is the real Mainstream Token. I still have a bit of a gambling mindset.
However, I can’t deny that this theory is indeed much more reliable than my previous scattershot approach.
Wait, your student doubled their investment in three months? How is that number calculated? Isn’t that a bit exaggerated?
What I fear the most is a Bear Market; can a 5% allocation really save lives then?

I've experienced the green lushness at three in the morning, but now I've long since laid flat; sleep comes first.

The feeling at three in the morning, really, I've felt like smashing my phone against the wall.
But that aside, I've long understood the concept of splitting positions; going all in is just asking for trouble.
Having an account of 30 million is indeed impressive, but I'm even more curious about how your student practiced; can you elaborate?
You only understand what risk is after suffering losses, and I agree with that.

The feeling at three in the morning is indeed incredible, I almost want to throw my phone away, but the split position strategy still needs to be executed seriously, otherwise it will just be a trap for suckers.
