The feeling of staring blankly at the numbers when the account goes from Full Position to just a remainder, those who understand, understand.
I have seen someone ask: "If the principal has dropped to only four hundred U, can I still turn things around?" To be honest, I have experienced this question myself. Back then, my account directly evaporated over three hundred thousand, and that period was simply a nightmare cycle—borrowing money to add to my Full Position, the more I added, the more I lost, and I was completely numb.
But later I did climb out. It wasn't through some miraculous trade, but by grinding out a trading framework that could work.
**First stop the bleeding for the account**
The first thing: clear your position and let your mind cool down for three to five days. Then take out 2000U, and only use 20% of your position to test the waters each time. Don't go all in, don't chase highs and sell lows, and definitely don't rush in to buy when a certain coin suddenly surges. Stay steady, don't rush.
**Build Your Own Model**
Only trade varieties and cycles that you understand. For example, I am used to looking at the 4-hour trend lines combined with daily key levels. Before entering a trade, I must think clearly about three questions: Why enter? Where to exit if I lose? Where to take profit? After each trade closes, I need to review—was the profit due to luck or was the logic correct? Was the loss due to the stop loss being in place or was it a wrong directional judgment?
**Use profits to roll into a Full Position**
When making money, use profits to increase your position; when losing money, automatically reduce your position. Set your take-profit and stop-loss ranges in advance, and don’t change your mind at the last minute. After several consecutive profitable trades, force yourself to stay out of the market for two days — many people expand after making money, resulting in a wave of retraction.
**Solidify the effective**
Analyze all successful and failed trades to identify your truly stable patterns. Then go against human nature: don’t add to your position after making a profit, set take-profit orders in advance and don’t watch the market. Create a monthly goal sheet, weekly review notes, and a risk control checklist to form a closed loop.
The key to growing from 2000U to 20,000 and 100,000 is not how advanced the technology is, but whether you can withstand the pressure and execute strictly. Methodologies can be learned, but whether you can endure those nights of continuous losses depends on yourself.

I am someone who always buys the dip. Seeing this reminds me of that dark period in my life, and I really feel a bit scared.

ngl the "stare at the red candles in silence" part hits different when you've been there. learned this the hard way with way too many zeros.

nah this "framework" talk is exactly where people slip up... seen too many claiming they cracked the code right before liquidation. the discipline part? yeah that's real. but most won't actually do it, they'll fomo back in within 48 hours.
