#数字资产动态追踪 From 2,000 USDT to 268,000 USDT, he achieved it in four months.

A friend recently chatted with me; he has only 2,000 dollars left in his account and asked if he could turn it into 300,000 in half a year.

My first reaction was: I understand the desire to turn things around quickly, but the real question is—are you aiming to make quick money, or do you want to survive longer?

He said he wants to do it steadily.

Alright, then let’s follow the rules—no emotional trading, and don’t rely on luck to hit a jackpot.

Looking at his futures account, with a few thousand USDT as capital, he’s had several instances of over-leveraging in the past, with a long record of losses. I told him directly: "Stop for now, and let’s clarify one thing—no gambling, that’s the first ironclad rule."

**First month: steady pace, no chasing profits**

Fortunately, he doesn’t have the bad habit of reckless trading, so we start from the basics.

Initially, the goal isn’t to chase huge profits but to stabilize the trading rhythm. I suggested he try this: one swing trade per day, keeping the position size within 20%, aiming to earn 3-5% per trade, then close—no greed, no rush.

By the end of the first week, his account increased by 600 USDT.

In the second week, his trading became smoother, and the funds started showing clear growth.

By the third week, he was a bit overconfident, asking if he could speed up and take more gains.

**Second month: pause to reflect, this is crucial**

I immediately hit the brakes and told him to pause trading for a few days.

I shared a fact many people are reluctant to admit: every trade must be reviewed. You need to understand which trades were driven by impatience, which had execution errors. Otherwise, the profits are just luck, and you won’t be able to hold onto them.

In the volatility of coins like $ZK, $JASMY, $SUI, I’ve seen too many people who are technically skilled but lose it due to mindset issues. Turning a position around doesn’t rely on one big move; it depends on each trade following the plan, maintaining a steady rhythm, and progressing step by step.

**Three to four months: results appear**

After four months, his account reached 268,000 USDT.

By then, I reminded him again: "Making money isn’t hard; the hard part is not going back to old habits."

**Final words**

Over the years, I’ve seen many futures traders. The ones who truly lose are not lacking in skills but are driven by impatience, gambling mentality, and disrespect for the rhythm.

Many have taken the road of greed and impatience, ending up anxious and collapsing, watching opportunities slip away from their fingertips.

Mindset determines success or failure. This is especially true in the crypto market.
