A post-00s cryptocurrency trading girl from Shanghai, not only is she beautiful and has the right values, but her skills are also impressive, she represents the new generation of post-00s. She has been a friend in the cryptocurrency circle for many years. Recently, we talked about her glorious history when we met. She spent 5 years in the cryptocurrency circle through learning and practice. She said making money is too easy, many people think too complicated. If you lay a solid foundation step by step, now she earns 7 figures a month and 8 figures a year!
I have整理 her干货, and now I share it with those who are fated, let's learn and master it together, it's worth collecting!

Not long ago, I had coffee with my 'master.' He pulled out a shiny notebook and handed it to me: 'This is my tool for survival over the past 3 years, take a look.' I thought it would be some profound secret, but after flipping through it in just 5 minutes, I was more shocked - it’s just these three simple tricks that allowed him to grow from the initial 8000U to a seven-figure sum, without ever hitting the liquidation line.
Step profit - Lock in half of the earnings first, then use the profits to roll
The master said that the first thing he does when he opens a position is always to set up a 'double insurance': a stop-loss order to limit risk and a take-profit order to secure targets. But what really ensures his profits is the operations after making a profit.

Today we won't talk about the market or air drops, I want to chat with everyone about a real person — Zhao Changpeng.

Everyone knows he is the founder of Binance and the richest person of Chinese descent with a net worth of 76 billion dollars, but few remember that he once washed dishes at a McDonald's in Canada, his fingers wrinkled from the work, staying up late to monitor the kitchen's inventory, just like us now struggling to pay rent, ordinary to the extreme.

What made him soar later on? After years of grinding in the crypto world, I’ve come to understand more and more: it relies on the courage to take risks, the ability to discern trends, and the execution that follows through on promises.

If you plan to take cryptocurrency trading as a second profession in the next three years, these 8 practical iron rules must be read — all are practical tips for making a living, so be sure to save them well!

1. Losses are easier than profits; preserving gains is fundamental.

If you earn 1,000,000 and double it to 2,000,000, but then lose 50%, you revert to your original state; even if you gain 10% and then lose 10%, you end up with only 990,000. In the cryptocurrency world, losses occur quickly, so preserving your principal and profits is the primary principle.

2. Frequent fluctuations do not earn money; long-term returns are instead eroded.

If you make 40% and then lose 20% on 1,000,000 every year, after 6 years, you will only have 1,405,000 left, with an annualized return of only 5.83%, which is worse than a 5-year treasury bond. Compared to 'big ups and downs', stable profits are more important.

A few days ago during a tea chat, a fan who has been doing spot trading for some time suddenly asked me, 'Master, you always seem so composed, only making moves three or four times a year, how do you manage to double your account each time?'

I smiled and pushed the freshly brewed tea to him, not in a hurry to answer, but instead asked, 'What timeframes do you usually focus on when watching the market?' He paused for a moment and said he mostly looks at 1 hour and 4 hour, occasionally checking the daily chart.

I slowly replied, 'The first step in trading is to 'widen' the timeframe. Movements below the daily chart, like 1 hour and 30 minutes, are considered 'market noise' in my view—looks lively, but in fact, has little reference value; I only use the 4 hour chart to assist in looking at the structure, for example, whether the continuation patterns in a trend have materialized. The signals that truly allow me to make the decision to 'act' must wait for a clear direction from the daily or even weekly charts.'

Sister, is there really a way to double the contract without rushing, making one or two deals a day, and working three rounds?

He had just pushed the wine glass over, and I pushed the steaming tea back: "Let me tell you a true story from my place first."

Last year I took a little brother, A K, who entered the market with 1800U and rolled it to 6500U in three months, without ever blowing up his account. He just focused on two points to watch the market: 11:30 AM and 8:30 PM, and spent the rest of the time helping people shake cups at the milk tea shop. The secret is just three straightforward sentences:

Don't fixate on K lines, first focus on the flow of funds. The short-term market is shallow, and buy and sell orders can be seen at a glance. If three bullish candles are formed in 15 minutes, with trading volume exceeding twice the average volume, and the sell orders are being completely consumed, then the bulls have already voted with real money, and the K line is just the result.

I am not a cryptocurrency mentor, I don't do courses or earn commissions, just an old investor who has been through liquidation and pitfalls.

Last year, a friend came to me with 2700U and said he wanted to recover his previous losses. I didn't talk about moving averages or MACD and other complex things, I just shared three pieces of experience I learned the hard way. He followed my advice for 3 months, and his account grew to 50,000 U without any liquidation. These three 'rules for survival' depend entirely on your respect for the market.

First, divide the money into three parts, prioritize survival before seeking profit.

I told him to split the 2700U into three parts of 900U each, and not to move a single cent —— this is a lesson I learned when I liquidated my entire position and couldn’t sleep at night because of the losses:

The cryptocurrency market wants to roll 10,000 dollars into 1 million, it's not about luck — I learned this from stepping into the pit of a full-position disaster; it relies on solid operational logic. These 9 practical tips were honed from my losses:​

Don't mess around with small funds: Before the principal reaches 100,000, don't chase highs and lows every day with a full position. Seize one high-certainty market opportunity, take a wave of profit, and that's enough; greed leads to losses. ​

You need to know how to time the good news: If you haven't sold on the day of significant good news? You must exit immediately when it opens high the next day. In the cryptocurrency market, it’s common that 'good news realization hits the peak', hesitation will only eat away at profits.

“XX once on top, the account goes to 0.”

This is the only truth I have believed in during my 10 years in the crypto world.

Put this sentence in front of my computer, and I rolled 10,000 U to 100,000 U.

The method is not mysterious; I gave it a vulgar name—‘5 Dollar Snowball’. Cut it with five dollars to turn myself from a gambler into a shareholder.

1. First, cut the money into 5 pieces.
No matter how small the principal, divide it into five equal parts. If it’s 10,000, split it into 5 pieces of 2,000. Keep 2,000 in your wallet, and put the other 4 parts into a cold wallet for physical isolation. When the impulse comes, you have to get up and find the U disk, let your emotions buffer for 30 seconds, and your hands will calm down halfway.

Having invested in the cryptocurrency market for over 10 years and completed more than ten thousand transactions, my deepest insight is: high returns are hidden behind high risks. To achieve stable compound interest, position management is the "lifeline." If we compare funds to a reservoir, each asset is like a faucet, and the rhythm of opening and closing is entirely under our control; we cannot afford to be careless.
First, control risks from the operating mindset: do not rush to go all in when buying; entering in batches is the most prudent approach, such as the 334 (first batch 30%, second batch 30%, remaining 40%) or 433 rule, which is very practical. Opening a position must include take-profit and stop-loss—once the cryptocurrency price breaks through, technical indicators signal a top, or if the position's profit significantly retracts or even incurs a loss, timely action is required: take profits to secure gains and stop losses to cut losses.

Old coin circle people have a consensus: history never repeats itself, but it always rhymes. Just like every time before the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates, the market always falls into a state of 'boredom to the point of dozing off' — the current situation is just like that.

BTC is grinding back and forth in a narrow range, while ETH is simply lying flat and not moving. Mainstream coins all seem to have hit the pause button, with fluctuations so small that even short-term traders have lost their interest in watching the market. Don't say you find it boring; even I almost spaced out while staring at the K-line.
But don't get me wrong, this doesn't mean the market has lost its vitality; rather, it's a buildup before the storm. Right now, whether it's institutions, large holders, or retail investors who usually love to stir things up, they are actually doing the same thing: staying in cash and waiting for the 'gunshot' — waiting for the Federal Reserve to signal an interest rate cut.

Last winter night, a friend suddenly messaged: “Sister, two days! Fifteen thousand turned into four hundred and eighty thousand, does this mean freedom?”

I only replied: “Take out four hundred thousand now, the rest you can play around with.” He thought I was too conservative and didn't listen.

Three days later, he called, his voice hoarse like sandpaper: “There’s less than six thousand left in the account.” I didn’t say much and added him to a small group of three, named “Learn to Defend.”

Four months later, he sent a screenshot: Twenty thousand principal earned back fifty thousand, with just one sentence: “Sister, this time I listened to you, not a penny was wasted.”

Last night someone asked in the group: the more you watch the market, the more you lose money, why?

I replied: you treat candlesticks as an electrocardiogram, and position as life.

After being in the crypto circle for a long time, you will find:

Playing all in, shut down when it drops, hands shake a bit when it rises;

Empty position, don't look for three days, missed the chance to shoot the thigh;

Only those with 'half position + stop loss' are laughing every day, the curve is going up.

This is not metaphysics, it's a gaming mindset:
Win without showing off, lose without cursing;
Don't blame others for a margin call, don't get inflated with profits;
Just think about 'how to play the next game', not tangled up in 'how to lose the last game'.

How to incorporate the gaming mindset into the trading system? Three steps to success.

After being in the cryptocurrency circle for a long time, I understand that there are four outcomes: big profit, small profit, small loss, and big loss. Don't foolishly think you can break through by improving your win rate — the dealer holds your cards and will never let you win too much.

I have condensed the rules into three points: first, the dead line; never allow a big loss to happen, cut losses immediately when triggered, and no hesitation allowed; second, let go; you can't seek big profits, if the trend hasn't turned, don't rush to take profits; third, normalcy; life is lived through small profits and small losses, not being greedy or anxious will help you endure longer.

To achieve these, you can only follow the trend — it's not about guessing the trend, but waiting for it to run before jumping on. But trend trading is like a fierce dog: when the market comes, it brings back big chunks of meat, but when volatility arrives, it bites back both the principal and the profits. I've seen people multiply their money five times in six months, only to have it all reversed in two weeks of volatility; the account curve is more heartbreaking than an ECG.

A few years ago, I met an old predecessor who invested 200,000 yuan in the cryptocurrency circle, and now it's worth 58 million. He once said something to me that enlightened me.

He said: 'This market of cryptocurrency is just a mob; as long as you control your emotions, this market is an ATM!'

My experience is that if you want to make money in the cryptocurrency circle, there are a few points:

1. Don't make small profits, and don't incur big losses.

Simply put in 8 characters, it is actually very difficult to achieve. For example:

You opened a position with 20,000, and after opening, it rose to 21,000. You were very happy and took profits, making a 5% gain, but then the market continued to rise to 25,000... You made 5% but missed out on 50%;

Friends in the crypto circle, Gate Alpha's MERL points airdrop has directly heightened the enthusiasm of 'bounty hunters'! But is this news favorable or unfavorable for mainstream coins like BTC and ETH? Today, let's break through this layer of glass and thoroughly explain how to avoid pitfalls and judge market trends!
1. Gate airdrop MERL has a 'double-edged sword' impact on mainstream coins.
First, let's look at the direct impact: Gate's large-scale airdrop essentially means 'diverting funds'—some retail investors will withdraw funds from BTC and ETH to accumulate Gate Alpha points to grab the MERL airdrop (after all, 18 or 90 MERL is not currently low in value). This short-term fund migration may cause BTC and ETH to experience slight downward pressure, especially around the launch of the airdrop on October 21 at 18:00 (UTC+8), where fluctuations in funds will be more apparent.

People often ask, 'Is spot trading more profitable than futures trading?' The truth is: for most people, spot trading does not earn more, but the probability of being able to keep what has been earned and not lose the principal is much higher. Futures trading appears to generate quicker returns, but it often leads to losing both previous earnings and the principal, while spot trading steadily accumulates considerable profits over time.

First, there is a significant difference in the baseline safety of the principal. After buying spot assets, even if the market drops severely, as long as you don’t sell, the quantity of assets you hold won’t change; at most, there will be unrealized losses on the books.

Brothers with a principal below 1500U, take a pause and listen to my advice.
The cryptocurrency circle is not a casino; it's a battlefield of strategies.
With a small principal, you must be steady, just like an old hunter who knows how to keep calm. Last year, I guided a newbie who had only 500U in his account; at first, he was so nervous that he couldn't even place an order, fearing he would lose everything in one go.
I told him, “Follow the rules, and you can gradually improve.”
Two months later, his account exceeded 6000U;
Four months passed, and he soared directly to 15,000U, without ever blowing up his position.
Some people ask if it's luck? It's definitely not; it relies on solid discipline.

Congratulations on earning 1 million in the cryptocurrency space! However, safely transferring funds out of the cryptocurrency world may require more caution than actually making money — a slight misstep could lead to bank card freezes, financial fraud, or even personal safety risks. Please remember the following methods, especially for beginners:

1. Exchange cash in Hong Kong
Specific operation: Bring your USDT to Hong Kong and look for local compliant exchange shops to convert U into Hong Kong dollars or Chinese yuan.
Important reminder: Avoid carrying large amounts of cash across borders, as it is easily subject to inspection and carries higher risks; it is recommended to operate in smaller amounts and in multiple transactions.

At 35, I have two houses in Shanghai.
One for my parents and one for myself; this stability is what I have fought for in the crypto world for 8 years.

When I first entered the market, I invested 250,000, and after a crash, my account was left with only 60,000.
Those days were extremely torturous, but I didn't panic and stuck to the 'focus on the long-term value of quality coins' method, ultimately rolling my funds to several tens of millions.
The most unforgettable moment was when my bottom position multiplied 300 times in 3 months, making me 30 million in one go; I still feel like it's a dream when I think back.
In 2025, my assets broke eight digits, and today I share a few iron rules for trading coins:
