Today, Old Li shares a counterintuitive truth: in the crypto world, the more diligent you are, the more you lose. In 50 days with just 7 trades, my account multiplied 17 times.



Not long ago, a buddy compared our gains. We started at about the same time, he with 5,000U and I with 5,000U. 50 days later, his account had less than 1,000U left, while mine grew to over 80kU. He asked if I had inside information. I said no, I just made dozens fewer trades than him.

In those 50 days, he stared at the charts, making over a dozen trades daily—buying when it rose, cutting losses when it fell, and squeezing in a trade even when the market was range-bound. He stayed up late waiting for news, ended up with red eyes and swollen hands, and an empty account. I, on the other hand, made only 7 trades in 50 days. The rest of the time, I worked out, walked the dog, binge-watched shows, and spent time with family. When the market gave no opportunity, I simply didn’t trade.

My rules are very simple. First, only trade trends above the 4-hour timeframe; no entry if there’s no direction. Second, a single loss must not exceed 2% of total capital; once it hits, exit immediately—no holding or averaging down. Third, at most two trades per day, then close the app.

Among those 7 trades, 3 hit my stop-loss for small losses, and 4 captured gains. One of them was the main ETH rally—I held it for three days and made over 60kU on that single trade.
