“Lost over 20,000 U, only 2,000 left in the account, can I turn it around?” $XRP
Recently, many friends have asked me this.
I want to say, this is not a dead end. I once lost over 300,000, and I understand that kind of torment — sleepless nights, questioning whether I should give up completely.
But it was from crawling out of that low point that I truly understood the core of trading: it's not about predicting the market, but about managing yourself.
Now, not only has my account recovered, but it has also achieved steady growth, relying on a set of simple but effective disciplines.
If you are facing a similar predicament, perhaps the following five steps can help you find direction:
1. Accept reality, stabilize your mindset
The most feared thing after a loss is “revenge trading” — wanting to recover in one night, only to fall deeper.
My approach is: first stop, accept this loss. Acknowledge that the market is always uncertain, but your emotions cannot sway with the candlesticks. Once your mindset stabilizes, your decisions will be clearer.
2. Strict position control, never go all in
The remaining 2,000 U is the seed to turn things around, it cannot be gambled away.
I set a strict rule for myself: no single position should exceed 15% of total capital. Even if the opportunity is great, enough ammunition must be saved to respond to sudden fluctuations. Survive first, then talk about making money.
3. Firm stop-loss, no luck involved
For every order, set the stop-loss point before entering. If the price hits the stop-loss level, execute it even if it hurts.
Discipline is not a cold, hard rule, but a protective line that prevents you from collapsing in a big loss.
4. Roll profits, compound interest is king
In the early stages of recovering, don’t rush to withdraw.
I will continue to invest the profit portion in trading, using profits to generate profits, allowing the account to “grow” on its own. Compound interest takes time, but going far is more important than going fast.
5. Establish a system, execute mechanically
Solidify trading rules: for example, only trade products with clear daily trends, or enter based on moving average golden cross breakout signals.
Then execute like a robot, refusing impulsive actions.
I have walked this road and know how difficult it is in the early stages. But when you shift your focus from “quick recovery” to “executing discipline,” change will quietly happen.
