There was a trader whose performance last year was pretty surreal—when I checked his position records, eight out of ten trades were losses, yet by the end of the year, he quietly made over a million in profits.



When this got out, a lot of technical traders were baffled. Later, someone dug into his trading logic and found his approach was actually quite "simple":

First, his capital management. He split his principal into ten parts, only using 10% for each trade, and set a strict 5% stop-loss line. Lose three times in a row? He’d stop trading immediately—never letting emotions take over. During those heavy crashes last year, while others were getting liquidated, his account didn’t even get scratched.

Then there’s his moving average strategy. The 30-day moving average was his lifeline—coins holding above this line in a bull market often saw gains of over 300%. As for trying to bottom-fish coins that fell below the 200-day moving average? He wouldn’t touch them, saying that was just handing money to the big players.

What’s most impressive is his alertness to pump-and-dump schemes. When the market surged and most people rushed in, he’d be considering whether it was a bull trap. Even when adding to positions, he had a system—never going all-in, always scaling in with test trades.

Everyone in crypto wants a shortcut, but sometimes these seemingly "clumsy" methods are actually the most sustainable and stable ways to profit. In trading, slow is fast.

Damn, this is the real old-fashioned pancake technique—no fancy moves, just making money.

Really? This guy makes money just by strictly sticking to discipline. We tech folks are always trying to find the next big thing, but end up losing money constantly.

Honestly, this guy wins because he isn't greedy. Out of eight trades, he loses on one and profits on the rest. I just can't learn to have that kind of mindset.

Oh, come on. You make it sound nice, but isn’t it just about surviving longer? In my opinion, most people fail because of their mindset, not their strategy.

To be honest, this guy has truly figured it out. Losing money on eight trades and making a profit on just one, yet still earning a million a year—that's just unbelievable.

ngl this is just risk management 101 with extra steps... 10% position sizing + hard stops is literally capital preservation playbook, nothing revolutionary here. dude just didn't blow up when everyone else did lmao

This guy really had an epiphany. I admire his stop-loss discipline—so many people just refuse to admit defeat.
