$BTC For the past few years, I kept messing around in contracts and losing several million.


Again and again, I held onto orders, added to my position, unwilling to break even—always thinking that the next wave of the market would let me turn things around.
Cowed and driven by greed, I sank deeper and deeper, living in a daze, with anxiety wrapped around me all day long.
I couldn’t eat, couldn’t sleep—my life and mindset were completely worn down by the order book, until my family savings were wiped out.
Only when I finally calmed down did I realize that going one-sided to bet on price rising or falling is really a contest against human nature, and it’s destined to end in total loss.

In the end, I only took out the remaining 2000U and used a different idea to do cross-exchange price spread arbitrage.
I no longer stayed up late watching the market for big moves, and I didn’t rely on betting on direction to fight for gains and losses—I set strategies to run automatically.
Step by step, I steadily got my balance back, and watching the account slowly climb upward is what truly pulled me out of the swamp.
The millions I lost weren’t just money—they were years of time and a restless, impatient mindset.
Only after reaching the end did I understand that there has never been a shortcut to getting rich through trading—staying steady is what gives you a chance to turn the tables.
