With only 2,500U left, can it be turned into 90,000U in half a year? First, here’s the result: yes.
I never answer directly—I first ask, “Do you want to turn things around steadily, or are you going to gamble the last round?”
He said, “I want to live.” Then I finally agreed: “Yes, but you must follow two bottom lines—don’t get involved with emotion trades, and don’t risk the principal.”
When I opened his contract account, I saw that his 2,300U balance was hidden among a sea of liquidation records. Fortunately, he hadn’t made the move of going all-in to bottom-fish—this is the only reason I was willing to take him on.
There are no shortcuts to mentoring. The first step is to build a foundation: only do small-range swing arbitrage—limit to 1 trade per day, and keep position sizing within 15%. The daily target is just 2%–4%. I kept repeating: “In the contracts market, staying alive is more important than making quick money. First, engrave the word ‘steady’ into your DNA.”
In the first week, he made 300U. In the second week, his account broke ten thousand. But by the third week, he got impatient: “Bro, can we add more?”
I didn’t argue. I told him to stop trading for 3 days. The assignment was only one thing: write a 500-word daily review—no talking about candlestick or technical indicators. Just write about the psychology during trading, like whether you want to add more when the market is volatile, whether you get greedy when you’re in profit, and how you resist temptation.
After mentoring so many students, I understand this well: turning the account around doesn’t come from waiting for the perfect行情. It comes from restraint—pulling out every time it hits the right moment.
Three months later, he reached 40,000U. That’s when I taught him my last-resort “two-stage midline layout + emotional inflection point strategy”—it isn’t selfish secrecy. Most people can’t even hold onto basic discipline. Even if they learn the strategy, greed will still ruin it.
Half a year later, he sent his statement: 89,300U. I didn’t praise his luck—I just said, “Turning things around isn’t hard. What’s hard is not falling into the same pit again.”
Over the years, I’ve seen too many people holding 5,000U and still can’t turn it around. They all crash into the same loop: “Hurry, gamble, and don’t believe.”
I don’t have some magic trick. Mentoring students is just “laying cognitive foundations, guarding with discipline, and executing the strategy” @渔歌趋势 #kernel
