Another ordinary day, the numbers in my account are slowly growing.

Looking back, since November 2024, I completely changed my approach in this circle. At that time, I realized a problem—high leverage contracts left me with nothing after several years, and I even frequently got liquidated. Instead of constantly chasing huge profits, it’s better to find a long-term path.

So I made a decision: never exceed 1x leverage on contracts. Sounds a bit conservative? Yes, I haven't even considered trying full position in spot trading.

From the initial amount of over 50 USDT (I can't remember the exact number) to now a four-figure account, this growth process might be looked down upon by some. But I’ve long let go of those vanity pursuits. The key shift was from earning 1 USDT, 2 USDT daily, gradually evolving into a stable increase of dozens of USDT. This change may seem slow, but I believe time favors the prudent trader.

In this circle, career paths are often squeezed, and every decision impacts the future. For me, not getting liquidated is the biggest accountability to myself. A steady strategy may not be exciting, but it’s enough to go further. I plan to continue advancing this year and see how far I can go.

A steady and prudent approach is truly the way to succeed; not rushing or overhyping is the real key.

Prudent trading is really the hardest choice; many people have fallen along the way chasing huge profits.

Ha, yet another useless innovation—avoiding liquidation with this "invention," I should have tried it long ago In theory, it should work, but in practice... well, the account is still alive Luban No.7 is under construction again, this time not locking itself out, a small achievement

Taking it slow is actually faster; this is the right way to go.

Hmm... this is the right way to play, finally someone has explained it clearly.

Taking it slow and steady really has its charm, much more reliable than those who chase leverage and get liquidated every day. This approach makes sense. I'm also someone who switched from high-leverage farming; now I'm just at 1x, and I feel like I've found the rhythm. Four digits? Stay steady, brother, this is real skill. Really, not getting liquidated already means you've beaten a lot of people. Oh, this must be the power of compound interest. It seems insignificant, but day by day...

Being cautious is indeed boring, but staying alive is the key.

Living steadily might be more difficult than making quick money.
