Most people entering the circle are dreaming of getting rich quickly, but there's a harsh reality—those who want to make fast money often end up losing it. When I first started, I only put in 3,000 yuan (USDT), just like most people, an ordinary retail investor. Now, my account is stable at over 50 million. This is not bragging; it's a real trading record.

What's the key? I never focus on how much I can make in this wave, but rather ask myself whether I should act in this wave. People who make money understand one principle: learning to "not operate" is the beginning of a snowball effect.

**Three stages of progression:**

**Stage One: Build a foundation, control position size**
Divide 1,000 yuan into 5 parts, each 200 yuan. The benefit of this approach is that each trade has clear stop-loss and take-profit settings. No chasing trades, no holding onto losing positions, no betting against the trend. Only trade in markets you understand.

**Stage Two: Add positions when profitable**
Once the account reaches 10,000 yuan, control each position to about 25% of the total funds. When the trend is favorable, I add to my positions in batches, trying to capitalize on the most profitable middle segment of the trend.

**Stage Three: Regular take profits and cash out**
After the funds surpass 200,000 yuan, I start locking in some profits weekly and withdrawing. It’s not because I fear losses, but to remind myself not to get carried away. Stability itself is the biggest return.

**Common mistakes of those who blow up their accounts:**
Messy positions, lack of discipline; not cutting losses when needed, holding all the way down; even when the direction is correct, stubbornly holding until the account blows up. These are all issues with trading mindset.

In the crypto market, your circle is very important, and information channels are also crucial. Without reliable guidance and a good communication environment, it’s easy to repeat others’ losses.
