Don't remind me again today

Last month, while scrolling through chat history, I saw a contact that I had deleted, and suddenly I remembered that magical experience from four months ago — I led a newbie from 1500U to 23,000U, but in the end, I personally blocked him.



This person blew up three times after playing with a土狗 for two days, even losing the rent money. At that time, I set three strict rules for him, and he actually listened and followed them for a while.

The first rule is to divide the money into three piles. 1500U should be split up, with 300U for short-term trading to earn 5% daily before calling it a day, another 300U waiting for the price to reach a key support level to enter with a small position, and 200U must be kept hidden as emergency funds. He watched his colleagues in the office suffering from liquidation again, this time he was being honest and started to crawl back up little by little. This is how he operated steadily when trading $ASTER.

The second point is, when the market is unclear, don't act rashly. When the market is stagnant, he goes for a run and exercise, only taking action when ADA breaks out of that range, easily making an 18% profit. As long as the profit exceeds 15%, a portion must be withdrawn to the card first; money in hand counts. He operated like this during the $CHESS wave, cashing out first before discussing anything else.

The third rule is the strictest, with a stop-loss not exceeding 3% for each transaction, and when profits reach 8%, adjust the stop-loss to the cost price. That time with LTC, he wanted to remove the protection, and I directly threw him the screenshot of his previous liquidation. That night, LTC really dropped sharply; if it weren't for being locked in the position, he would have been liquidated again. When operating $BID, I also strictly adhered to this system.

When his account exceeded 20,000, he started to get arrogant. One day, seeing the ETH trend was good, he went all in, and as a result, his principal was halved. Later, he sent a long message admitting his mistakes and wanted me to continue guiding him. I glanced at it and deleted him, replying only with: "Relying on the system to survive, not luck. Arrogant people will eventually go to zero."

The market never spoils anyone; discipline is the only way to stay in the game for the long term. Those who want to play casually end up becoming someone else's liquidity.
ETH-1.43%
ASTER-3.77%
ADA-0.28%
CHESS-19.39%

It's really heartbreaking, making twenty thousand and getting cocky? People like this deserve to drop to zero.

In simple terms, discipline is against human nature; as soon as you make money, you think of going all in, and then there's no turning back.

To be honest, it's a bit harsh, but it's indeed the truth... Arrogance is truly a fatal flaw.

This is karma, isn't it? Earning twenty thousand makes you feel like you're capable, typical newbie syndrome.

To be honest, it's easy to get carried away with soaring prices... starting to float at 23,000, this guy is still okay, I've seen even more outrageous cases.
