#2026年美国股市展望 A fan shared his experience with me: working two shifts on the factory assembly line, working overtime every day, living a monotonous three-point life with no way out. But he used cryptocurrencies like $LDO and $KO to earn a year's salary from the crypto market.
Initially, he was like most people—chasing gains and selling at the top, taking losses and holding on. His trading mindset back then was a bottomless pit. I didn't teach him any complex indicators or candlestick patterns, just one sentence: "Don't follow the crowd, set stop-losses, trade at your own pace."
Later, I set a rule for him: 1 to 2 trades per day, no gambling on market ups and downs, strictly control position sizes, stop trading after losses, and never operate with a gambler's mentality. At first, he thought it was too slow, so I told him: "What you want is stable side income, not the dream of doubling your profits overnight." That seemed to wake him up.
Three months later, he sent me a message: "I did it, earned enough for the whole year's salary." At that moment, I knew that people with strong execution and emotional control can find opportunities in the crypto market.
If you also want to expand your income streams through cryptocurrency, it's not impossible. The key is patience and stability. Don't be led by greed and impulsiveness. Find your own rhythm, stick to simple strategies consistently, and a turnaround is possible. Those who truly want to change their income structure are often not relying on luck, but on self-discipline.

Stop-loss really is a divine skill, better than any advanced indicator. I used to be someone who chased gains and sold on dips, but I later realized—those who can stop-loss live the longest.
Honestly, anyone who can control their hands has already won in the crypto world. Not everyone has that awareness.
Emm, this story sounds a bit exaggerated, earning a year's salary in one quarter? That requires a lot of capital and luck... But self-discipline is definitely something I haven't let go of.
I just want to ask, how did he choose those two trades? Purely technical analysis or other strategies?
I agree with sticking to simple strategies; complex things often end up trapping yourself.
Hey brother, your logic is the same as what my mentor told me. It seems this consensus is already formed.
But the truth is—most people simply can't do "1 to 2 trades every day," their hands must be itching so much.
Self-discipline > luck. This is something I need to tell my friends who are trading altcoins.

Setting stop-loss is really a hard skill; most people can't do it.
---
Earning a year's salary in three months... this story sounds pretty unbelievable, but the logic checks out.
---
The key is still mindset. Greedy people coming into the crypto world are just giving away money.
---
The rule of 1-2 trades per day is strict; most people simply can't sit still.
---
Stable side income vs. the dream of huge profits. Honestly, most people can't understand this trade-off.
---
Execution and emotional management—these two things are more valuable in the crypto world than any technical analysis.
---
It's really hard not to follow the trend. When you see others making money, it’s tempting...
---
Discipline is easy to talk about, but actually doing it can discourage 99% of people.
---
$LDO$KO how exactly you choose is the real issue.

Another "I have a friend" story haha, but the principle is indeed reliable.

ngl, the discipline angle hits different but $LDO & $KO plays in 3 months? smell the survivorship bias from here... what about the mempool predators eating retail orders alive?

There's nothing wrong with that; the key is to hold back... Many people die at the stage of chasing gains and selling in panic.
Annual salary? Damn, this story sounds too awesome, but I believe it—it's those who make money through discipline that ultimately survive.
Stop loss really is a lifesaver; those who value their lives set it up.

Honestly, the biggest test of human nature is the stop-loss... I've seen too many people almost make it and then just miss out on the profit.
---
Three months' salary in a year? That requires such strong self-discipline. I doubt most people can stick to it for even a week.
---
Hearing "1 to 2 trades a day" sounds simple, but truly capable people are rare, and it's mostly a mindset issue.
---
The key words are just a few: stop-loss, position sizing, emotional management. Easy to say, hard to do... Sigh.
---
I need to get a tattoo of the phrase "no gambler's mentality," because so many people ruin themselves with the thought of "this time I'll turn it around."
---
Stable side income > Dream of huge profits. There's nothing wrong with that, but nobody believes it.
---
The problem is that knowing the rules and actually executing them are two different things. Execution ability really is a matter of life and death.

Earn a year's salary in three months? Sounds pretty good, but I don't know if the next three months will wipe it all out. This wave of the market is different.
