That trading genius who flaunts “making a few thousand USD a day” every day has completely vanished from the human world.

I met him about five or six years ago. His feed was filled every day with profit bills—today it was $3,000, tomorrow $5,000. He’d casually say that trading is actually very simple, and that casual line drew a huge crowd of followers to swarm in and copy trades. Back then, everyone admired his steady profitability and believed he had tapped into the market’s foolproof “guaranteed win” code.

But at some point, his updates abruptly stopped.
A week, a month, a full half year—there were no updates at all.

Only later did I learn the truth: a sudden, violent crash hit the market hard with a wave of dumping. Long-term smooth sailing made him lose all reverence for risk. He became convinced that if prices fell, they would rebound sooner or later, and he resolutely refused to use stop-losses.
He averaged down as prices dropped, added again as it fell further, and for three rounds he piled on his position to dilute his cost while stubbornly hard-carrying the market.
In the end, not only did he wipe out all the profits he’d made before—he also ended up losing dozens of thousands of USD.
After his account got liquidated, he immediately deleted all his social media accounts, completely exited the trading circle, and since then no one has ever seen him again.

Too many people think the hardest part of trading is making money. That is completely wrong.
In the favorable stretch where profits can continue, the real barrier for ordinary people is holding on to risk control and staying humble—that’s the hurdle most people can’t cross.

The market never spoils anyone. The more consecutive wins you have and the more blindly confident you become, the more precisely it will deliver a brutal blow to you.

Now I’ll never again idolize people who flaunt profits every day.
A truly mature trader is always working on risk day and night—not chasing the applause of short-lived profit.
The market’s iron law of survival: living long matters far more than getting rich overnight—by ten thousand times.
