Many people enter the space full of ambition, learning a ton of indicators and watching countless tutorials, only to end up losing more and more money in their accounts. It took me two and a half years to grow my initial 30,000 to over 50 million, not by using any advanced techniques, but by perfecting one thing to the extreme.



Looking back at my equity curve: In the first stage, I grew 30,000 to 1.5 million, grinding for a full two years; in the second stage, 1.5 million surged to 7.5 million in just 12 months; finally, breaking through from 7.5 million to 20 million took only 5 months. You'll notice a pattern—the further along I got, the less frequently I traded, but the faster I made money. Frequent trading is a major pitfall.

My core strategy focuses on just one pattern: the N-shaped trend. A standard vertical surge, then a pullback that doesn’t break the key level, followed by another breakout above the previous high—that’s my entry signal. Once the pattern is confirmed, I enter; if it breaks support, I cut immediately. I set a 2% stop loss and aim for a 10% take profit. Even if the win rate is only 35%, with long-term compounding, I can still outperform the market.

I only look at the 20-day moving average on the four-hour timeframe. Every morning, I spend five minutes scanning my positions. If I don’t see the standard pattern, I close the software and go about my day. If a setup meets my criteria, I place stop loss and take profit orders, then leave it alone. A true expert lets the market come to them, instead of chasing the market.

For capital management, I follow three steps: when I reach 1.5 million, I withdraw the initial 30,000 and let the rest compound; at 7.5 million, I pull out half to allocate to stable assets; the remaining funds stay in the market for trading. This ensures a safety margin while not missing out on opportunities.

To sum up, three iron rules: don’t chase highs—better to miss out than make a wrong move; don’t hold losing positions—if support breaks, admit defeat; don’t be greedy—withdraw profits when you should. There’s no surefire secret to guaranteed profits in this market, but as long as you can consistently make a 10% monthly return, hitting tens of millions is just a matter of time.

Don’t get blinded by flashy indicators—the ones who truly survive are those who execute simple rules to the extreme.

Wait, from 30,000 to 50,000,000? That’s insanely lucky. It feels a bit unbelievable to me. The N-shaped pattern sounds simple, but when it comes to real trading, who can’t do that? The key is whether you can really hold your position with the right mindset. It took two years to make 1.5 million, then suddenly the pace accelerates? That’s just ridiculous. I agree about stopping frequent trading. I used to keep my hands busy every day. The story sounds nice, but I still think being able to consistently make 5% per month is already pretty good. Can this strategy work in a bear market? I have my doubts.

Well said, it's those disciplined people who make money, while people like us who change strategies every day are destined to lose. Why does this logic sound so familiar? I feel like I've heard something similar before. The N-shaped pattern sounds good, but how many people can really stick to only watching this one pattern? Setting a 2% stop loss and a 10% take profit—what really matters is being willing to cut losses, and that's the hardest part. A bunch of indicators just end up confusing people even more, I totally relate. Executing simple rules to the extreme—easy to say, hard to do, my friend.

To put it simply, it's just trading discipline, but very few people can actually stick to it. Earning only 1.5 million in two years is a bit slow, but the doubling speed afterward really shows the power of compounding. I'm also using the N-pattern; the key is truly being able to resist the urge to trade—most people can't do it. Talking about a 10% monthly return sounds easy, but in reality, you have to go through several drawdowns that can really mess with your mindset.

This logic sounds great, but let me just ask: with such a simple N-pattern, can anyone really stick to it for 5 years without wavering? It's easy to say, but execution is hell. I've seen posts like this before, and in the end, most people still can't control themselves. Stop loss at 2%, take profit at 10%... sounds perfect, but when the price actually breaks the level, can you really cut your losses? The thing about compounding is, all it takes is one drawdown to send you back to square one; if you can't get past the psychological barrier, it's all for nothing.
