#美SEC促进加密资产创新监管框架 Last month, a friend of mine blew up his account until he only had 2,000U left. He was completely deflated, almost ready to quit the space.
I told him, it’s not impossible to recover, but you have to follow my lead—no deviating, not even a step.
First thing: stop thinking about going all in. I told him to split that 2,000U into 40 parts, with a maximum of 100U per trade. Sounds timid? But this is the survival baseline. He followed the rules for the first two trades, and after earning some profit, he rolled the principal plus half the profit into the next trade, and that’s when he started to recover.
I only gave him one set of trading signals: watch the 1-hour K-line, when EMA7 crosses above EMA21, MACD forms a golden cross below the zero line, and the volume bars turn red at the same time—only act when all three conditions are met. No signal? Sit out. Many people lose money because they can’t resist the urge to trade and always want to do something.
Stop-loss and take-profit were even stricter. Every trade had a fixed 1% stop-loss and 3% take-profit, exit when you hit the target. He asked me several times if he could hold a bit longer, and I just shot back: “Don’t die first. Staying alive is what matters most.”
Timing is also important. 1AM to 3AM is his main battlefield. He stays completely out of the market during the first three days of every month and every Friday from 8PM to 10PM—no exceptions. When market sentiment is most unpredictable, avoid it if you can.
After three months of this, 2,000U grew to 200,000U. He told me later that he used to think trading was all about intuition and luck, but now he understands that discipline is more important than anything.
To put it simply, making money isn’t about how smart you are, it’s about whether you can control yourself. Those who can wait always get what they’re waiting for in the end.

Discipline is easy to talk about but hard to practice; very few can truly withstand it.

This logic is essentially about writing protective measures for smart contracts... The risk control module hardcodes rules, uses circuit breaker mechanisms, and time locks. To put it bluntly, it’s like patching human nature vulnerabilities as if they were buffer overflows. However, the problem is—traders are often more prone to reentrancy-style self-overwriting than contract code. The fact that your friend could stick with it for three months is already pretty impressive.

Discipline is truly the rarest thing in trading; most people can't achieve it.

Discipline is something that sounds simple, but it's really hard to keep your hands off in practice.
