Retail investors in the crypto circle with small funds aim for steady growth, but the key has never been about making huge profits from a single market surge. The real threshold lies in: whether you have a clear operational path, a stable trading system, and whether you can stick to discipline.
Survival in the early stage is the most important. Use controllable risks to accumulate experience and understanding—learn to control position sizes, respect stop-losses, and accept uncertainty. Don’t think about achieving overnight success.
In the mid-term, focus on understanding. Deepen your knowledge of market structure, capital flows, and project logic, gradually eliminating emotional trading. Trading slowly shifts from casual to methodical, from chaotic to rule-based.
In the later stage, it becomes simple. Just repeat actions that have been tested over time and proven effective. Reduce frequency, cut unnecessary fuss, and make trading a part of life rather than the whole life.
The secret to stable profits? It’s not about making money every day. It’s about staying calm when profitable and remaining calm when losing. Follow your plan and don’t be disturbed by market noise.
Opportunities are always there. But only those who truly practice restraint, self-discipline, and continuous cognitive iteration can go far enough.

It sounds good, but actually executing it is a whole different story. I'm the kind of person who knows I should cut losses, but just can't bring myself to do it...

honestly the discipline framing here maps pretty well to smart contract design patterns - like how you'd build robust state machines that don't get exploited by market noise. the "controlled risk accumulation" thing is basically iterative auditing for your own decision-making process. respect the analogy ngl

Well said, discipline is really the toughest hurdle. Over the past few years, I've been gradually figuring it out through repeated trading.

Basically, it's just two words—discipline. If you don't have it, don't bother.
