#比特币与黄金战争 Lazy Trader's Method: How to Turn 10,000 into 1,000,000 Over Time
People say going with the trend is good, and I was initially skeptical. It wasn't until I actually turned 10,000 into 1,000,000 in half a year that I truly understood.
It's not that I have some super-strong market intuition; honestly, I'm just lazy—didn't turn following the trend into mindless all-in bets.
I've made all the rookie mistakes. Back then, I would heavily buy in when prices rose, panic-sell when they fell, and add more when I made profits. The result was getting more and more losses. Later, I changed my approach and did the opposite.
**The framework is simple: add to positions only when there's unrealized profit, cut losses when needed, and keep leverage within 3x.**
How exactly to operate? Split the principal in half. Put 5,000 in a safe account as a ballast, and don't touch it. Use the remaining 5,000 for trading. Even if the exchange offers high leverage, I only use 10% of that. Set a 2% stop-loss; in the worst case, one trade loses 100, which is only 1% of the total principal. This makes me feel secure.
Opportunities don't come every day—just wait for those sudden and sharp declines. Last year, a mainstream coin dropped for three days straight, filled with panic orders. I built a position at the low, and three weeks later, when it hit my target price, I sold. That single trade netted 35,000. Once the principal grows, the snowball effect becomes meaningful.
**Follow these four iron rules, or else even the best plan is useless:**
Before opening a position, set your stop-loss level firmly. When profits reach 30%, move 20% of that to the safe account. After two consecutive losses, stop trading for 48 hours and calmly review your strategy. If monthly losses exceed 10% of the principal, stop trading for the month.
The market is often calm, and holding on stubbornly makes it hard to make money. But if you learn to use tools and manage risk, to be modest, I dare say, being lazy can actually help you make money.

Sounds good, but the key is how many people can really be "lazy enough"

Stopping loss and drawing it perfectly is a great point. I didn't do well on this before, and I learned my lesson the hard way with a 30% loss.

Ten thousand becomes one million. The story sounds really exciting, but the key is whether you can stick to those four ironclad rules.

It's the same old story of "10,000 turns into 1,000,000," and I'm getting tired of hearing it. But this guy's take on stop-loss and position management actually has some substance—much more reliable than those reckless bag-holders going all-in.
