#数字资产市场洞察 💥I lost over $20,000 and now only have $2,000 left. Can I turn it around? I’ve been through worse—losing more than 300,000 RMB, and I really thought about giving up.



That period was the most painful. Every day, waking up to the nightmare of my account shrinking, thinking this might be my fate. But I gritted my teeth and didn’t stop; instead, I started from zero and gradually figured out my own trading logic. Now not only have I recovered my losses, but my account is also steadily growing.

Many people ask me how I did it. Honestly, there are no shortcuts, but these five points are the most effective:

**First, accept reality.** Don’t keep dreaming of doubling your money overnight, and don’t follow the herd to chase highs and sell lows. Losses are part of trading costs. Once you understand this, your mindset will stabilize, and you can keep moving forward.

$BNB **Second, manage your position size carefully.** My rule is not to open a single position exceeding 15% of my total funds. I prefer to go slow rather than gamble fast. Testing with small positions is crucial, with only one goal—staying in the game.

**The third key is stop-loss.** Set your stop-loss level before placing an order, and execute decisively when it hits. Don’t hesitate or fantasize. Protecting your principal is always the top priority.

$SOL **Next, know how to use profits.** Don’t randomly add more capital; instead, roll over the profits you’ve earned. Let profits generate new profits, allowing your account to grow naturally. This is the long-term correct approach.

**Finally, establish a system and stick to it strictly.** Combine technical indicators and market rhythm to form a clear trading plan. Then execute it like a machine, unaffected by short-term fluctuations and emotions.

$ETH Many friends who follow this approach have already doubled their accounts, and some are steadily on the rise.

In the end, losses themselves are not scary; what’s scary is losing composure and discipline. As long as you’re willing to settle down, use the right methods, and execute strictly, the opportunity to turn the tide is right in front of you. Step by step, steadily and surely, I will walk this recovery journey with you.
BNB-2,18%
SOL-4,5%
ETH-5,93%

I think the 15% Position is a bit conservative, should we adjust it according to the market temperature? I just couldn't hold the stop loss, and I'm still in hell mode. You're right, mindset is the hardest part, much harder than technical indicators. The premise of being able to turn things around is to stay alive, I agree with this. I remember the worst time when I lost so much I doubted life, but I'm doing a bit better now. 15% is really a stable strategy, I didn't believe in this early on, and it cost me a lot. I've stuck to the idea of rolling profits, taking it slow, no rush. If we keep up this pace, we should be able to see hope, fighting.

Damn, the 15% position size has really saved me so many times.

That's right, the hardest part is not chasing gains and selling in panic. I've fallen for it before. --- A 15% position is indeed stable, but executing it perfectly is really tough... Most people can't do it. --- I'm fine with stop-loss now, but I still get a little conflicted inside for a couple of seconds haha. --- The rolling profit strategy is amazing; feeling your account grow on its own is awesome. --- The key is to control your emotions, otherwise even the best system is useless. --- The biggest fear in recovering losses is losing everything halfway through. Your approach is really solid. --- Position management is a fundamental skill, but unfortunately many only realize it after losing money. --- That period of over 300,000 was really tough. If it were me, I would have gone all-in to turn things around long ago. Your mindset is really strong. --- Setting a stop-loss is easier to talk about than to do. I always feel that if I wait a bit longer, the market will come back. --- The rolling profit method tests your patience the most, but it is indeed a sustainable long-term approach.

It sounds good, but how many can truly persist?

300,000 didn't kill you, so why fear 20,000? Keep going!
