Let me share a true story from around me.

Last month, a friend was still complaining to me about being broke, saying he owed money, worked overtime until midnight every day, and his salary was gone the moment he got it. Back then, he would scroll through his phone every night until the early hours, watched all kinds of trading videos, itching to get in, but would chicken out whenever it was time to actually place an order.

Later on, somehow, he suddenly came to me and said he wanted to give it a try. I didn’t say much, just asked, “Are you ready to lose it all?” He paused for a moment and said he at least wanted to take a shot.

At first, we tested the waters with small amounts. If it went up, we’d increase the position a bit; if it dropped, we’d pull out immediately. We never hesitated to cut losses and never got greedy for more when we made a profit.

The craziest time was when BTC spiked, and he jumped in with 200U. I watched as the price climbed all the way to 4100U and urged him to cash out. But he insisted on waiting a bit longer, and to my surprise, his gamble paid off—it shot up directly to 9000U. Just like that, he rolled his initial 1700U up to 36,000U in just about thirty days.

He paid off his debts, and a couple of days ago, he sent me a picture holding new car keys. I said, “You’ve made it,” and he laughed and replied, “Just lucky to have met you.”

Honestly, the logic of this space has never changed. Don’t expect free lunches; there are only a few core rules: get the timing right, understand the market, have the guts to get in, and the discipline to get out.

If you’re losing so much right now that you’re doubting your life, wanting to make it back but afraid to go all in, searching everywhere for so-called “sure-win secrets”—all I can say is, opportunities in the market are always there. It just depends on whether the people you meet genuinely want to help you, or just see you as their cash machine.

Those who get it will naturally come.
