Recently came across an interesting trading case that I want to share with everyone.

A novice approached me, honestly with only $1200 of capital to start. My initial reaction was actually to advise him not to enter the crypto space, as this capital couldn't really stir up any waves in the market. But his next words changed my mind—"I'm not here to gamble my life, I'm here to learn how to make steady profits." This attitude instantly convinced me.

I discussed a plan with two other traders for him: split the $1200 into 10 parts, and only risk $120 each time. The obvious benefit of this approach is that single-loss risks are strictly controlled. More importantly, it enforces discipline: stop immediately when wrong, avoid adding positions and holding through losses, and don't let emotions take over.

This guy's execution ability is indeed top-notch. After losing two trades in a row, he definitely had the urge to continue trading, but he held back. His daily profit target was 2%, and he would stop once he exceeded it. Once he made a 5% profit on a trade, he directly locked the extra profit into a cold wallet. In half a month, $1200 turned into $3600.

Even more impressive was his subsequent operation—using only profits to add positions, while the principal remained unchanged. Watching others go all-in and double their money, he would just casually chat in the group, with a very steady hand. Continuing at this pace, his account grew to $24,000 in a month, then in three weeks surged to $120,000, with detailed records of every trade.

The most impressive sentence was: "Look at the take-profit line before the direction." This way of thinking is no longer just for beginners. Adhering to risk management, disciplined execution, and stable compound growth—this is the real secret to surviving long enough in the crypto market.
