$8,000 to $390,000, sounds like either incredible luck or some black technology operation. But honestly, it's the complete opposite — that was the turning point when I fully realized the reality after a severe drawdown.



At that time, my account only had $8,000 left, and my mindset had already hit rock bottom. Because of this, I made a decision: to give up chasing doubling speed and focus on one thing — locking in my position.

I set a few strict rules for myself:

Only use a fixed small amount per trade, never full position, and never add more temporarily. No matter how hot the market looks, there must always be enough buffer in the account. This way, even if prices fluctuate violently, I can keep my composure.

Take profit and stop loss in a simple and brutal way: once the stop loss level is triggered, exit immediately, no luck involved; take the expected profit and leave immediately, no waiting for more gains.

My win rate is actually around 60%, nothing particularly high. But through the accumulation of trading frequency and strict rule enforcement, the account gradually grew. This is not luck from one or two market waves, but a repeatable, sustainable operating system.

I observed that most people fail not because they see the wrong direction, but because their positions blow up — rushing in full position at once, or adding leverage to gamble, and one mistake can wipe out all previous efforts.

I never bet on winning or losing with the market, only compare my execution against myself.

From $8,000 to $390,000 in 52 days, this is not a miracle. It’s simply the result of strictly following rules in every trade.

Honestly, position management is the key, otherwise even the best sense of direction is useless.

Position management is really a lifesaver; otherwise, I would have been wiped out long ago.

To be honest, sticking to small fixed positions may sound boring, but it definitely allows you to live longer than those who dream of turning things around in one shot.

It's true that managing position size is important, but very few people can actually do it. Most are still overwhelmed by FOMO.

To be honest, that's what I want to hear. It's not about overnight wealth, just sticking to discipline.

To be honest, this methodology sounds fine, but it really tests human nature. Most people can't endure the first 20 days.
