Some time ago, I met a seasoned trader born in 1995. His growth trajectory is truly impressive—starting with 30,000 yuan and accumulating over 80 million in 7 years.
But what I find more interesting isn't just that number itself.
He almost never chases hot topics and doesn't pay much attention to market news. His entire trading system is surprisingly simple.
After a deep conversation, I summarized the underlying logic that allows him to stay active throughout bull and bear cycles into these points:
**Maintain a consistent system and refine it repeatedly**
He doesn't pile up various indicators nor frequently switch strategies. He reviews his trades, identifies mistakes, and executes accordingly. The truly valuable thing isn't some advanced technique, but the resilience to stick to doing one thing for many years.
**Stay away from the hype and believe in the power of compound interest**
Hot topics are just for observation; he only touches meme coins with relatively clear fundamentals. He doesn't chase quick money from overnight surges but relies on small, certain gains that roll over year after year.
**Simplify holdings and adjust flexibly**
When funds are small, he sticks to 1-2 coins. As capital grows, he maintains about 3 core positions. He gradually adds or reduces positions to average costs, never putting all chips in at once.
**Use long-term cycles to set direction and short-term cycles to execute**
He looks at long-term trends and the actual flow of funds to decide entry points, rarely changing decisions based on a single news event. In plain terms, by the time news spreads, the market has often already moved halfway.
**Stay humble and treat losses as tuition**
He doesn't blindly trust any single method. When he loses, he considers it paying tuition and never lets emotions take over.
For traders with still limited capital, he offers four words of advice:
Fast—exit decisively when reaching target prices; Accurate—only pursue opportunities with relatively high win rates; Stable—operate within manageable risk; Bold—when a truly good opportunity arises, dare to take action.
People who can't make money are usually not because they lack effort, but because they persist with wrong methods. Long-term successful traders rely on a system that defies human instincts. It's less about luck and more about a disciplined framework.
If you're still unclear about the direction, slow down and solidify your foundational steps first.

To be honest, this set of things sounds simple, but very few people actually manage to do it. The key is the word "slow"; too many people fail because they rush.

Simple system refinement and iteration, this is the right way. It's much better than those flashy indicators.

Basically, it's discipline. Most people die because of greed, don't they?

To be honest, I understood this set of logic, but the number of people who can truly implement it is very few.

To be honest, I've heard this logic countless times, but only a few people can actually implement it... The key is that most people simply can't do "not chasing hot topics."

Basically, you need to be patient and not always think about getting rich overnight. The system is the key.
