My account balance dropped from 1.5 million to 32,000 in just a few hours. My mind went blank—I couldn’t think at all. I rushed into the bathroom, and the tears just started flowing.
My phone buzzed—my wife sent a WeChat message saying it was time to renew our child’s extracurricular class. Just that one sentence, and I completely broke down. I squatted on the floor, sobbing uncontrollably, feeling like a total failure. I even started to wonder: Was it a mistake to get into this space in the first place?
After that day, I figured something out.
Investing isn’t about gambling your life on overnight riches. At the end of the day, it’s about giving your family a more secure life. I couldn’t keep playing like this.
The first thing I did was quit leverage completely. Then I started keeping a trading journal, recording every win and loss—money lost shouldn’t be lost for nothing; you have to find some patterns in it.
Later, I gathered a few old friends, the kind who had also been beaten up by the market. We formed a small group to support each other. We agreed: no chasing dreams, no gambling with our lives—just steadily working on compounding returns.
We slowly developed a system—“multi-timeframe resonance.” Simply put, when both the four-hour and daily charts show a golden cross, and trading volume is about 1.8 times the usual, that's when we act—and the win rate is much higher. This rule ended up saving us more than once.
Some in the team used this method to pay off their debts; some saved enough for their kids to study abroad. Seeing everyone slowly get back on their feet gave me peace of mind.
Looking back now, I’m actually grateful for that breakdown in the bathroom. It woke me up. There are no legends in crypto—those who survive are the ones who follow the rules.
Going solo is like rowing a small boat at sea—it flips over as soon as a storm hits. With a reliable team, at least you won’t lose your way. I’m always here, and if you want a steadier approach, you’re welcome to join us.

From 1.5 million to 32,000, really, at that moment I understood what it means to be on the edge of life and death.

1.5 million down to 32,000, all gone in just a few hours—who could handle that?

From 1.5 million to 32,000, this time I really saw through it. Should have realized long ago that there are no shortcuts in the crypto world.

From 1.5 million to 32,000, that's really insane. This round of mindset building is the real way to make money—it's worth more than any technical indicator.
I still remember the LUNA crash vividly.
