Having been in the circle for 8 years, relying on steady position management and trend judgment, I grew my initial capital from 20,000 to over 20 million. This method may seem simple, but executing it requires discipline. A disciple used the same approach and doubled his funds within three months, indicating the direction is correct.



**Position management is the first line of defense**. Divide your funds into 5 parts, investing only one-fifth each time, so even a single loss is manageable. Set a 10% stop-loss; a mistake at most loses 2% of total capital per error. Even with 5 mistakes, only 10% is lost. For profits, set a take-profit point above 10%, so you're not afraid of being trapped—trading becomes a game of probability rather than gambling.

**Following the trend is the key**. Rebounds in a downtrend are often trap setups; true opportunities occur during pullbacks in an uptrend. Buying low is always more reliable than bottom-fishing. Many people chase short-term rapid gains in coins, whether mainstream or altcoins, but very few can sustain several main upward waves. After a short-term surge, the momentum often weakens; after stagnation at high levels, a decline is inevitable. Instead of gambling on luck, wait for the next opportunity.

**Technical analysis reference**. A golden cross on the MACD below the zero line and breaking above zero is a relatively safe entry signal; when a death cross forms above zero, reduce your position decisively. Volume and price relationship is also crucial—pay close attention to volume breakout after consolidation at low levels; at high levels, if volume increases but price stagnates, consider clearing your position.

**Key point: Never add to a losing position**. Many retail traders have the bad habit of adding more when losing, which only worsens the situation. Adding to positions should only be done when in profit; the correct choice during a loss is to cut losses and exit promptly.

**Use multi-timeframe moving averages to judge trend**. A turn in the 3-day moving average indicates short-term opportunities; a turn in the 30-day moving average signals the start of a medium-term trend; a turn in the 84-day moving average suggests the arrival of a main upward wave; a turn in the 120-day moving average signals a long-term bull market. Only trade coins in an uptrend to maximize success and avoid wasting time.

**Stick to daily review**. Check whether your holding logic still holds, observe weekly K-line trends to see if they match your previous predictions, and adjust your trading strategy promptly based on market changes. This can effectively prevent falling into wrong trend traps.

Consistent success is not achieved overnight; the key is to repeatedly execute the correct methods.

Another story of "from 20,000 to 20 million," just listen and don't take it seriously. Position management is indeed correct, but most people simply can't implement it. I've tried the MACD method, but it's more honest to just look at the candlestick charts. Stop-loss is correct, but the problem is that very few people can be ruthless in executing it. I often regret it myself. We understand the principle of riding the trend, but when it comes to execution, it's easy to become greedy. The biggest fear is averaging down; once you do it, you can't turn back, which is indeed a big pit. Honestly, it's still a mindset issue. No matter how good the strategy is, self-discipline is necessary. It took 8 years to reach 20 million, and the average annual return isn't particularly high, indicating that making money in the crypto world isn't that easy. I feel this theory is suitable for people who execute mechanically. I, being emotional, simply can't play that way. Reviewing is a good habit, but less than 1% of people stick to doing it every day. The key is to find a method you can consistently execute, don't just copy others.

ngl the position sizing framework here maps pretty cleanly to risk management primitives in smart contracts—it's essentially implementing a circuit breaker pattern across your portfolio. the 5-tranche allocation is basically composable risk layers... though tbh most people will still fomo anyway lol

That's right, discipline is essential; otherwise, even the best methods are useless. I also use the strategy of dividing the position into five parts. The biggest pitfall is trying to add to a losing position; if your mentality collapses, it's all over. Following the trend sounds easy in theory, but when it comes to actually buying low, there's still hesitation, fearing a rebound might be a trap. The MACD golden cross breaking the zero line is indeed a reliable signal; I've caught it a few times with good results. The key is to review your trades daily. Without review, you won't know why you're losing money. This method tests your execution ability. Most people can't do it because they lack patience. Your returns are indeed solid, unlike those overnight wealth stories, I believe in this. A 10-point stop loss, with a maximum loss of 2% per trade, really reduces psychological pressure. The most difficult part now is judging the trend. Sometimes, a high level still looks like it will rise, but in fact, it's already a trap. Losing only 10% after five consecutive wrong calls is logical, but in practice, it's very hard to withstand the psychological fluctuations.

8 years, 20,000 to 20 million. To be honest, hearing this number sounds great, but there are very few who can actually execute that five-fraction position. Honestly, you still have to resist the temptation.

Sounds good, but very few people can truly stick to it and follow through --- Talking about theory is easy; when losing money, can you really avoid adding to your position? I just can't do it --- Setting a stop loss at 10 points, losing only 10% after 5 consecutive mistakes... perfect in theory, but what about in practice? --- I agree with this trend-following approach, but how do you determine if the trend has truly changed and it's not just a false breakout? --- From 20,000 to 20 million, that’s how many years of compound interest? Mathematically it’s sound, but who considers the time cost? --- I've tried the MACD golden cross, but it often gets wiped out by false breakouts. It’s not that I’m bad, it’s that the crypto market has no mercy --- Position management is indeed fundamental, but most people fail not because of the method, but because of their mindset --- Daily review sounds professional, but in reality, most people are just fooling themselves --- Is low buying always more reliable than bottom fishing? But what if the rebound never comes? Keep holding the coins? --- Rotating five different positions sounds stable, but when a great opportunity appears, your bullets are already used up

8 years 20 million, discipline is the real secret to making money, not some secret at all. Simply put, don't be greedy, don't hold on to losing positions, and know when to exit. The trick of averaging down on losses is really clever; so many people keep trapping themselves this way. Buying the dip is much more satisfying than trying to catch the bottom, I have deep experience with this. MACD golden cross breakout is indeed reliable; it all depends on whether you can really follow the rules. The 120-day moving average turning upward is the real big opportunity; everything else is noise. This set of strategies sounds simple but is hard to implement; most people still can't control their hands. Following the trend is always correct; going against the trend, even if right, is still wrong. Developing the habit of review is necessary, or you'll easily repeat the same mistakes. The hardest part still feels like the stop-loss, always thinking whether you can hold on a bit longer.

Sounds good, but why can't anyone verify this guy's on-chain address proof? From 20,000 to 20 million, if this growth curve is really that steady, the big wallet addresses should be traceable...
