200,000 US dollars, got wiped out until only 5,000 US dollars remained, how can this game still be turned around?

That afternoon, just past 1 o'clock, he messaged me, the first thing he said was, "With my situation... can I still come back?"
I opened the screenshot and stared at it for several seconds. At that moment, we both started laughing. 😂$RE
An account with 200,000 US dollars, only a tiny leftover hanging there.
Still, I had to comfort him—after all, he lost so much. #美伊谈判推迟
The outrageous part is—he went all-in at SHIB's peak, with 100% of his funds, and used 10x leverage. $BEAT
You think that’s the end of it?
Far from it. $BSB
He places dozens of orders a day, staring at 1-minute candles until his eyes hurt, trading fees like dull knives cutting meat, slowly eroding his principal bit by bit.
When it dips, he adds more, with only one thought in mind: "Bullish return, get back quickly."
And the result?
He didn’t get back quickly; instead, he hit zero first.
What’s even worse is FOMO.
Late at night, he saw others bragging about Dogecoin’s hundredfold gains, and in a rush, he went all-in.
The next morning—his account was sitting there, 5,000 US dollars.
He asked me if he could still turn it around.
I told him straightforwardly: "Yes, but you need to start over from scratch with your approach."
Later, I told him to do only three things, nothing complicated, but a bit counterintuitive.
First: Stop messing around.
Close the 1-minute chart, stop chasing candles, just wait for a clear trend you understand.
If you don’t understand it, stay out of the market, better to miss opportunities than to enter blindly.
Second: Only add positions after winning.
Never risk more than 10% on the first trade, so 500 US dollars is 500 US dollars.
If you make 20%, take half profits first, and let the rest ride with a trailing stop-loss, letting profits run. #Gate现货交易量增幅全球第一
Third: Stop-loss is the key.
Set a stop-loss on every trade, and exit immediately if you lose 5%.
Getting cut twice in one day, he immediately closed the software and said he’s done for today.
Not cool, maybe even a bit “chicken,” but it really works.
After two months, his account climbed back to 100,000 US dollars.
He didn’t get rich overnight, but he survived.
I want to tell those still underwater: don’t rush to turn things around, first learn how not to sink.
In this market, 99% of people aren’t clueless about the trend—they’re just fooling themselves: "Hold on a little longer, it’ll come back."
