When people are emotional, the account disappears.
I have had this saying next to my computer for eight years. From a retail investor on the verge of quitting, I managed to roll 10,000 USDT into 100,000 USDT.
I have no talent and no insider information, just a set of rudimentary methods—I call it "Five Blades to Slash the Heart Demon."
First Blade: Split the money into five parts, so there’s nothing to gamble with.
When 10,000 USDT comes in, first divide it into five parts of 2,000 each.
Only keep one part on the exchange, and throw the other four into a cold wallet.
Want to make impulsive trades? Fine, first rummage through your drawers for a USB drive.
By the time you find it, your mind will have cooled down.
Second Blade: Only deal with spot trading, don’t think about futures.
Start by practicing with spot trading.
Focus on the top 100 by market cap, coins with over 100 million in daily trading volume; buy slowly when they drop, don’t chase highs.
Throw in 2,000, first feel out the market’s temperament.
Keep your mindset steady; then you can talk about making money.
Third Blade: Buy more when it drops, but at most three times.
After entering the market, if it drops by 10%, buy one part, and if it drops again, buy more, up to three times.
The cost line keeps dropping, a 5% rebound can get you back to break-even.
If it continues to drop, acknowledge the mistake and leave, with a maximum loss of 6%, which won’t hurt you too badly.
Fourth Blade: Sell when you’re in profit, don’t be greedy for the last bit.
As long as you have a 10% unrealized profit, immediately sell half.
If the principal rises to 2,200, take out 1,000 principal and 100 profit first, let the rest keep running inside.
If it rises later, continue to profit, if it drops, don’t panic—you already hold a net profit of 5%, keeping your mindset stable.
Fifth Blade: Let the profits keep rolling.
Take out the money, continue to gather it into 2,000 units, look for the next opportunity, and repeat the process of "spot trading → averaging down → taking profit."
Rolling over a dozen times in a year, doubling isn’t a big deal; it’s normal to triple your investment in a good market.
Add two more blades to prevent impulsive actions:
Check the market at a fixed time every day, and place a maximum of one order a day.
Want to trade more?
Alright, first go out for a five-kilometer run.
Put that energy into running, not into the candlesticks.
Withdraw 20% of your principal every month, convert it into real money and transfer it to your card.
Money in the bank counts as yours.
Before placing an order, write a reason in 20 words; if you can’t, don’t act.
Chasing trends, going all-in, and averaging down more than three times? Don’t even think about it.
Just these five blades, rudimentary but effective.
Making money ultimately isn’t about brains; it’s about whether you can control yourself @Ming_铭哥 .
