It's not luck, nor talent. After years of navigating the crypto world, I’ve developed a solid, disciplined trading system.
That initial 2000U was all I had left after countless failures. Every loss was a lesson; every liquidation warning bell: **Greed is a dead end**. It took me too long to understand this.
## The core logic is simple
In trading, surviving is a hundred times more important than making quick money. Without an account, how can there be wealth growth?
So my strategy boils down to two words: **Survive**.
### Step 1: Divide your funds
Split 2000U into 5 parts, each 400U. Why do this?
—Always trade with only one part, the remaining 4 are backup. Market opportunities are endless, but traders who can survive long enough to seize the next opportunity are rare. This is insurance.
Don’t chase rallies, don’t add to positions, don’t fully load. Sounds conservative? Yes. This is the approach of those who make it to the end.
### Step 2: Set "brakes" and "ceilings" on each trade
Stop-loss? Absolutely necessary. **Limit loss to 3% per trade**, about 12U, then accept defeat.
Why so small? Because I don’t rely on a single trade to turn things around. I depend on the **frequency** and **consistency** of trades.
What about take profit? **Exit at 6% to 10%**. Starting with a profit of 24U per trade. Sounds modest? What about 20 trades a month? A year?
I’ve abandoned those illusory "huge profit" opportunities. 30% returns sound tempting, but I care more about the steady 5%. Because I can repeat it over and over.
### The third iron law
✓ Always set a stop-loss when holding a position, no exceptions ✓ Exit immediately upon reaching the target, lock in gains ✓ Only trade patterns I understand, no blind trading
These may sound boring, right? It’s precisely because they are boring that they work.
The market is like a beast. Most want to fight it. I choose to respect and avoid it. I only bet on directions I understand.
## The story of compound interest in 43 days
2000 → 290,000, there’s no magic behind this number. It’s simply:
**Strict discipline** × **Persistence over time** = the power of compound interest
The shift from a gambler mindset to a trader’s mindset happened in these 43 days. Failures taught me to respect risk, not fight it.
There’s no overnight wealth in crypto. Only like a snail—step by step, day by day—can you see real growth.
This is the true rule of survival.

It's the same old script, I've heard it too many times haha
Why doesn't anyone ask about the market environment? Or is luck in choosing coins more important?

Stop loss at 3% and run? I really respect this mindset. Taking it slow is indeed stable, but 160 times in 43 days? The data depends on the trading pair, right?

Another 43 days to multiply 160 times? Brother, this math problem is a bit outrageous.
No matter how you put it, it still depends on the market. Who can consistently achieve 5% in such market conditions in 2024?
Not to hype or criticize, but discipline in execution is indeed important. I've seen many posts like this.
Risk management is correct, but the real question is how many actually follow through.
Compound interest sounds beautiful, but the premise is surviving the bear market.

Wait, 43 days to turn 2,000 into 320,000? What kind of capital is needed behind the scenes to create such a bizarre curve? On-chain data doesn't match up.

Here we go again, it's easy to listen to but hard to do. I just want to ask, why hasn't it exploded yet?
