With my last 390U, based on my own judgment, if I can sell the spot within the 2720 to 2780 range, the ideal situation could yield a 1.5x return. Afterwards, I plan to go all in on bullish options, aiming for another doubling. Honestly, after this wave, I really want to focus on doing solid work and not operate so frequently like before.

The short-term goal is to stabilize at 50,000U. The core idea is to ensure profits can keep up with daily expenses, so I won't be forced to dip into the principal to cover living costs. Many people fail in trading because—before their profits even warm up—they're consumed by daily expenses.

Currently, I am most optimistic about ETH's future trend, especially compared to Bitcoin's strength; I feel there’s still a chance. Since I’ve decided to stay calm, I will think through every step carefully—no chasing trends, no gambling mentality. I hope to achieve a transition from a retail investor mindset to a stable income generator during this cycle.

This mindset is clear-headed; finally, someone understands stop-loss and risk management. Be really cautious with options this time; don't turn the dream of doubling into a nightmare.

Hey, this mindset has indeed changed, from frequent operations to thinking things through before acting, the progress bar is moving in the right direction. Can 2720-2780 really be sold off, or will there be more hesitation there? Separating principal and living expenses is a very correct point; many people get stuck right here. This wave of ETH really has potential, its strength definitely worth following compared to Bitcoin. Turning 390U into 50,000 is a bit hardcore, options are a double-edged sword.

Haha, still thinking about doubling again. I trust your calmness... just like I said last time, I won't chase the wind. Bro, 390U all-in options, how come your risk awareness is so unique? It's so true that the money earned is swallowed up by expenses. That's exactly how I got ruined. Let's talk about 50,000U later. First, survive and make 5,000 before bragging. ETH compared to BTC? Do you still dare to be optimistic? I really can't understand it.

Hi, it's rare to see someone sober, but betting 1.5 times on 390U and going all-in on options, is this mindset really stable? Nice words about not chasing the wind, but in fact, you're still gambling. Playing options with small funds is really risky; if you lose everything in one shot, how will you fill the gap in your life? Dreams are beautiful, but the slaps from the market are always more painful. A target of 50,000U is good, but I'm just worried that halfway through execution, you'll start to get itchy hands. ETH definitely has potential this time, but greed is a common flaw among retail investors. Have you guarded against it?

390U all-in options? Bro, are you trying to quickly reach 50,000 or quickly wipe out... It sounds good not to chase the wind, but then you double leverage right away. I really can't understand this logic. It's true that living expenses consume principal, but have you calculated the risks of options? ETH does have a chance, but don't confuse stable returns with a gambler's mentality. If you can truly stick to it this time without frequent trading, you'll have won. First, get your mindset right.

Hey, this way of thinking has indeed changed, from frequent trading to aiming for stable income. That's really getting burned. 390U multiplied by 1.5 times, then going all in on options to double... That's what they say, but options... uh. The most heartbreaking thing is still that line "the money earned is not even warm before being swallowed by life." I slap my forehead in frustration—so true. Regarding ETH's strength compared to BTC, there is still a chance, but this time you really need to hold steady and not be reckless. From retail investor to stable income earner? Bro, 50,000U is quite a goal.
