$KORU Do a half-year summary, and also show my losses. In the first half of 2026, I lost 1.4wu on contract trading, and 6ku on event contracts; together that’s 2wu. The losses mainly happened in February. At that time I went long Ethereum around 2250 and held on without stopping the loss. I happened to have a bit of extra money on hand, and as a result I lost almost 2wu within just 3 days. It drove me into hell in one go. In March, I actually managed my first non-loss month since September 2024—maybe I made a few hundred u. Back then, I thought it was the turning point where things would take off. I didn’t expect April and May to keep losing. In June, the first 20 days were also losses all the way; only in the last 10 days did I start making some money. In June, I only earned a bit more than 3000, which barely wasn’t enough to fill the holes from April and May. My worst was actually June. At the time I had to pay back my Huabei of 8400, and I simply had no money left. I called to negotiate an extension on the repayment, but it didn’t work. I spent more than an hour on the call. Then friends and classmates kept asking me to borrow money—really, I had no shame. In the end, I didn’t borrow a single cent. After that, I was directly overdue. After becoming overdue, the collections calls came in several times a day. I originally thought I’d just give up. Later, for various reasons, I finally found an excuse and asked my dad for 30,000 yuan to repay the loan. Then, slowly, in the final 10 days I made a little money. Throughout all of June, I slept less than 4 hours every night, and I kept staying up until 2 or 3 a.m. every day before I could fall asleep. My family is an ordinary one—my parents are farmers. Even now I still can’t figure out how last year I could treat money so casually. No wonder everyone says gamblers don’t end up well. I truly feel like I deserve it—ten thousand times over. The only reason I keep persisting in the crypto world is because there’s no way back anymore.
I hope my story can warn everyone: lucky people are ultimately very rare. Earning dozens of u every day is already better than 90% of ordinary office workers.
Also, I hope I can steady myself in the second half of the year, make money slowly, and pay off my debts.
If you want to scold me, you can just scold me directly—but don’t involve my family. I really should be scolded.
$SNDK This round didn’t bottom out at the lowest point, but it’s pretty much about the same. I stayed up all night last night, falling asleep around 3 a.m. in a daze, then waking up around 5 a.m., and dozing off again, until after 7 a.m. when I finally couldn’t sleep at all. When I woke up, I saw that SanDisk’s high had reached 2273, while my stop-loss was at 2298. This was purely luck. What I need to reflect on is that the position size for this trade was still too big. I opened 10 at 2104. I only had a little over 3000 in capital. Then I added 5 at 2206, added 5 at 2228, and at 2239 I went all-in with another 5, bringing the total position size to about 12–15x leverage. If I’d only sized down a bit and opened, say, 5x instead, I definitely wouldn’t have had to endure sleeplessness through the night. Of course, it’s also because later I lost over 900 in total from some other “clones” and Micron, which increased the risk. This morning, because there was no “空beat” I had to deal with, I temporarily added 1000u as margin. In the past few days, some brothers have seen that I seem to have made quite a bit (one trade making 500 or 1000u is something I didn’t even dare to think about before), but if I think it through carefully, most of it is just luck. If anything had gone wrong in the middle, I would’ve been wiped out. Looking back at 6.24 and 6.25 over two days, I directly lost 6000u. This week plus looks like I earned more, but in reality it was only just getting back the losses—profits aren’t much. Not to mention that across several accounts I’m still down about 18u overall. I lost 2u in the first half of the year. Mainly, in 2025 I lost more than a hundred. And I’m unemployed now. I’ve got a bunch of loans and a bunch of debts. My current life is a total mess. These past few days, the profits are at least allowing me to breathe a bit. Today is 7.1, and it’s also the first day of the second half of 2026. I hope that going forward I can keep the same mindset and luck, keep making profits. The road to getting back to even is long. You and I, let’s encourage each other.
$B what the hell is this, quick give me a drop. I opened the position last night, I'm done for. Midweek I want to play stocks, you crappy fake one, die.
$ESPORTS Mingpai pumps to lure buyers—those with more money can go long; those with less money shouldn’t go in. I won’t participate anymore. Brothers, may you get rich. This batch of distribution is aimed at going to zero—remember yesterday’s lows of 0.18 and 0.36: both doubled. Absolutely at the high end. Below 0.2 is the most likely scenario; this distribution is going all the way below 0.2.
$BANK Today the most regrettable thing should be the bank. However, this is also due to lack of experience. First, logically I can tell it should rise—no problem. But I made a mistake in judging the process. The long consolidation time was within my expectations, but then it dropped with a sudden dip, which was a bit unexpected. If I think about it, it’s normal: after each fake/clone stock “爆拉” (surge), there is consolidation, and then the subsequent second surge will usually also cause a first sell-off, with a drop of about 10%-20% depending on the case. So next time, the logic for trading these clone stocks will be very clear: 1. Identify the stock that consolidates after a breakout on increased volume. 2. At the consolidation level, place buy orders 10% below. It’s a pity, though. Remember it next time.
I should rest today and not do anything for now. To sum it up, I’m screwed. I just checked—since the beginning of last month until now, I’m down 4,450u. Why? Because I lost 1,500 on the 3rd, 7,500 on the 4th, and then another 5,000u in the following week. So, these half a month—luckily I managed to get back over 9,000, but I’m really exhausted. And yesterday I almost got wiped out and blown up as well. When you算 it all out, it’s actually better to keep a small position—earning 50u per day—than to do what I did. It looks like I profit a lot when I’m up, but the losses are always bigger. I’m done for. All that excitement was for nothing—$B
$SYN I don't understand—why? 😭 I'm really upset. I didn't watch the price; you got me out with a loss-protection/stop-loss, and then immediately pulled it back. Only then did I open a 2000u position. Are you seriously short me these few cents?
$SYN If this one doesn’t take a loss, see if we can get back to 0.3. Theoretically, there’s a good chance, because the long-vs-short ratio is in our favor. Let’s see if there’s an opportunity to capture 50%.
$ESPORTS It's ridiculous—this morning I lost 390, and then they paid it back. I made 200 and then ran. Tell me, you—things were already going to drop, so why did you go hit my stop-loss at the highest point? What’s the point?
$SYN I’m back again and going long—this round I’ll take it and see how it goes. If it breaks above 0.24 and holds, then it can either grind in small steps or move sideways. Tomorrow being Sunday, it may continue to rise. So then I’ll hold long; otherwise I’ll bail.
