I used a seemingly "silly" method, growing from 2100U to 75,000U in two months. To be honest, the logic behind this approach sounds too simple—completely ignoring candlestick charts, not doing T+0 trading, and having no clue about technical indicators. But it is precisely this straightforward method that has allowed me and my friends around me to taste success.

Some friends have already transitioned to full-time trading, some bought new cars, and others improved their housing conditions. These changes are not dramatic overnight riches but the result of consistently following a simple set of rules.

**My Three Core Principles**

**First: Long-term holding, conservative position sizing**

I never trade T+0 frequently, nor do I obsessively watch charts for frantic entries and exits. Once I choose a direction, I hold firmly. Whether the market is falling or consolidating, my attitude is to stay put. I only consider taking partial profits when the trend hits a new high, and I continue to hold the remaining position, waiting for the next opportunity. This may sound like it wastes time, but in reality, it eliminates the trading fees and emotional wear caused by frequent trading.

**Second: Trade only the trends of mainstream coins**

I have no interest in short-term fluctuations of small altcoins. Many traders spend all day monitoring minute-by-minute charts, making dozens of T+0 trades, but their profits are often less than what I earn from capturing a trend once. Mainstream coins have better liquidity and clearer trends. Once the direction is confirmed, the profit multiples often exceed expectations.

**Third: Pyramid-style capital allocation**

I divide my principal into five parts, using at most 1-2 parts each time. I only consider adding to my position during sharp market swings, and only after the trend is confirmed, not blindly bottom-fishing. The benefit of this approach is that risk is always kept within a controllable range, and any single mistake in operation won't damage the overall account.

**Discipline is the true barrier**

I don’t possess any advanced technical skills. Many people have better analytical abilities than me, but they still lose—due to human nature. When prices fall, they want to cut losses; when prices rebound, they chase the rally. Emotions become the biggest enemy. My only advantage is persistence: sticking to the plan. I don’t rely on judgment, only discipline.

**Real data backtest**

Account at the beginning of June: 2100U

June 21: 12,000U (5.7x)

July 5: 39,000U (3.25x)

July 18: 75,000U (1.9x) (only one withdrawal during this period)

This is not luck from a single shot, but a natural result of compound growth. Each profit becomes the principal for the next round, continuously increasing under conservative position management.

**An interesting phenomenon**

Many friends around me have reported that, following this logic, their accounts have shown significant growth. Their common feeling is: "I used to think I was very smart, constantly analyzing stop-loss points, reverse trading, drawing trend lines, but my account kept shrinking. Now, using this 'silly' method, I’m steadily making profits."

This is not a story about technology, but about psychology. The market is not short of smart people; what’s lacking is the ability to conquer oneself. Traders who are good at stop-loss, reverse trading, and T+0 may have good technical skills, but the problem lies in high trading frequency and emotional volatility. The real winners often look "silly"—they just do one simple thing right and stick to it.

Market opportunities are never scarce; what’s lacking is patience and waiting. When the next big cycle arrives, those who can hold mainstream coins steadily are often the ones who reap the most substantial rewards.
