A lot of people jump into the crypto market with the idea of going all in and flipping their lives around in one shot.

To be honest, I went down that path too. Looking back now—if you want to stand firm in this market, never treat trading like gambling.

When I first entered, I only had a few thousand USDT as capital. I wasn't an institution or a whale, just an ordinary retail investor.

Now my account has grown to over 50 million.

It wasn't luck that got me here, but survival rules I learned after countless setbacks.

**Stage One: Don’t Rush to Earn, Learn Not to Lose First**

With a starting capital of 1,000 USDT, I would split it into 5 parts, investing only 200 USDT per trade.

Always leave yourself a way out in every trade:

- Always set stop-losses
- Set your take-profit targets in advance
- Don’t chase highs or panic at lows
- If the market is unclear, wait and see

If you stick to these, you'll beat 80% of the impulsive traders in the market.

**Stage Two: Scale Up with the Trend and Ride Big Moves**

After my account broke 10,000 USDT, I gradually increased my position to 25%.

Once the trend was confirmed, I would build positions in batches to let profits keep rolling.

While others focus on "how many points did I make today,"

I care about one thing only: Was my direction correct? How far can this trend go?

**Stage Three: Secure Your Gains, Don’t Let Human Nature Hold You Back**

After my account surpassed 200,000, I set a rule for myself:

Withdraw a portion of profits every week.

Not because I’m scared of a market crash, but because I’m wary of getting overconfident.

The more stable you are, the more the market will reward you.

**Why Do Most People Fail to Make Money? The Reason Is Simple**

- Chaotic position management
- Stop-loss is always "next time for sure"
- Can’t handle pullbacks even when the direction is right
- Get cocky after a win, fall apart after a loss

Yesterday, a friend who grew his account from 800 USDT to 12,000 USDT just withdrew his profits and was too excited to sleep.

I told him: this is just the beginning.

The crypto market isn’t a place for lone wolves.

If you have no information edge, no rhythm, no risk control awareness, then you’re fighting the entire market with a retail investor’s mindset.

If you want to go further and earn more steadily,

Then execute every single trade carefully and diligently,

And walk this path with both stability and longevity.
