Everyone, hold on a second. Those stories about hundredfold coins making you rich overnight—just listen and forget about it. As retail investors like us, it’s hardly relevant.
My own story might be more straightforward: started with less than 2000U, and in less than three months, grew to 75,000U. Nothing mysterious about it—just those tiny 3% daily gains, compounding day after day.
But I also blew positions and did some stupid things—staying up late staring at the charts, chasing shorts when I saw a dip, going all-in with leverage when prices rose. Only later did I realize that to survive in this market, there’s really one core action worth doing: split your money into two halves. Lock one half in a cold wallet—that’s my main capital, untouchable by anyone; the other half is for trading, so even if I lose, it’s only the profits, the principal is always safe.
Since that day, I set a few strict rules for myself:
**Rule 1: Follow the trend, never catch those tempting flying knives.** I only look at coins with steady daily performance, waiting for the 1-hour chart to retouch the moving average before considering entry. If there’s no obvious volume increase or trend reversal, I ignore the price—even if it’s cheap. Those sudden sharp drops? Not a bottom-fishing opportunity, just traps set for traders.
**Rule 2: Take profits and let them cycle.** When a trade gains 3%, I immediately split into three parts: one part withdraws to secure profits, one part stays in the account to keep rolling, and one part is reserved for emergencies. Even if the next trade fails, I only lose the profits, not the principal. The mindset is completely different.
**Rule 3: Shut down at a set time—your own K-line is more important than the charts.** I do at most two trades a day; when the time’s up, I close the app. Spend ten minutes at night reviewing: Am I getting impatient? Am I greedy? Note these bad habits to remind myself not to repeat them.
Recently, I’ve been following this old method: entering on volume pullbacks, exiting decisively when the pattern breaks, and riding the trend when volume picks up. I don’t guess whether tomorrow will go up or down—just focus on the current K-line structure and volume, then execute strictly according to the rules.
Some might ask, isn’t earning 3% daily too slow? But compound interest never complains about slow—it only fears chaos. If you’re losing money, it’s rarely because the market is targeting you; more often, it’s a hot-headed decision made in the middle of the night.
Those who survive in this market are rarely geniuses or inspired—it's a set of rules you can force yourself to follow even when you’re emotional.
The methods are laid out—whether you walk the path or not is up to you. If you truly want steady profits and take trading seriously, welcome to study together. But if you’re still dreaming of overnight riches, maybe we’re just not on the same page.

I also use the half-position trick, which has definitely helped me fix many bad habits.
---
That set of cold wallets is really top-notch; I just can't bring myself to lock them up, always wanting to hold more.
---
3% daily? I dream about that number every night, and I'm still losing money.
---
Deciding in the middle of the night on a whim really is a trap; I have deep personal experience.
---
Rules are dead; human nature is the biggest variable. That hits home.
---
It feels like they're talking about me—the one constantly receiving flying knives.
---
Compound interest sounds simple when you talk about it, but actually executing it depends a lot on luck.
---
I can't learn to turn off my phone; whenever I have free time, I want to open apps.
---
Taking a profit at 3% and splitting up sounds too rational; I usually need to double my money before I’m willing to move.
---
If this set of rules and systems can really be followed consistently, anyone can make money. The key is who can stick to it.

A 3% daily return is indeed stable, but what I fear more is that trap—execution power.
I've tried splitting the money in half, but I still can't resist moving that half to a cold wallet.
No matter how strict the rules are set, they can't withstand a feverish mind at 2 a.m.

Splitting it into two halves is a brilliant move, much more reliable than those who shout a hundred times every day.

Bro, I've tried this coin division system long ago, and it indeed lasts a bit longer.
---
You're right, but 99% of people can't stick with it for more than two weeks.
---
I've never touched the cold wallet part; I've survived this long mainly because of it.
---
3% can't grow; lately, I've been mostly dead due to emotional issues.
---
Turning off the device is the most heartbreaking part; every time I want to take one last look, it's gone.

3% can really compound into a monster, but most people can't hold on for a week.
Honestly, I just want to ask, how many of you can endure the first drawdown without adding to your position?
This set of rules sounds simple, but in practice, it's truly hellishly difficult to execute.

Damn, I need to try this three-part method. Just hearing about it sounds way more reliable than my messy old strategy.
