The "Calm Order Placer King" in the crypto world made a staggering 28 million USD in just two months! Should retail investors be envious or learn from this?



Recently, the on-chain scene has exploded! A trader codenamed "Calm Order Placer King" started with 3 million USD and grew it to over 28 million USD in just two months. This round of bottom-fishing long positions alone yielded an unrealized profit of over 6.7 million USD — accurately timing mainstream assets like ETH, BTC, SOL, UNI, and others. His operations are indeed impressive.

But don’t just drool over the numbers. For ordinary retail investors, the key isn’t "how much he made," but the signals and strategies behind it. First, this operation confirms that market sentiment is warming up; big funds are now daring to buy the dip against the trend, which is a positive sign from the market. Second, what’s truly impressive isn’t the huge profits themselves, but his discipline — during market crashes, he dares to be "fearful when others are greedy," holding his positions through volatility. That discipline is the real core.

However, everyone must stay grounded! This kind of myth is like the neighbor Wang winning the lottery — just a story to talk about, not a template for your own trading. I’ve seen too many retail investors follow the herd and go all-in, only to be shaken out during market swings, waking up in the middle of the night to check the charts or get liquidated. I’ve also made that mistake myself: last year, chasing a "big shot"’s SOL short position, he quietly took profits and ran, while I held on until liquidation, losing everything.

The painful lesson is clear: there are no gods in crypto, only surviving wolves. Risk management is always more important than chasing huge profits! Retail investors should learn not to blindly copy signals but to understand the core logic of "Calm Order Placer King": First, focus on mainstream coins and avoid blindly speculating on small tokens; second, diversify positions — don’t put all eggs in one basket; third, strictly adhere to stop-loss rules — never hold onto losing positions stubbornly.

My current trading approach is simple: divide my capital into ten parts. Each trade doesn’t exceed 10% of the total. After profits, I gradually add to positions, like playing cards — if the hand is bad, I fold and wait for better opportunities. For retail investors aiming for long-term success, the key is to develop your own judgment and master position management — making money within your understanding, protecting your principal, and walking out of the bull market with a smile!
