After so many years of trading, I thought I’d seen it all. But this time, the FIL market really caught me off guard—the account balance jumped from four digits to six digits in just a few days. How can I describe this feeling? Honestly, it’s even better than winning the lottery.

Here’s what happened. Late at night, I was watching the charts and noticed FIL hovering around 2.0 for quite a while. I’ve seen this kind of price action before—it either keeps drifting down or suddenly makes a big move. I checked the trading volume data and looked at historical support levels, and I had a pretty good idea: this was basically the bottom, and there wasn’t much room left to fall.

Without hesitation, I opened a long position at the low point. I went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, and when I came back, wow—the price was surging with increasing volume!

To be honest, my heart was racing—the price shot up from 2.0 to 2.3, then easily broke through 2.5, and my account balance kept rising. When it hit 2.65, I decided to take my profits and exit. That move alone doubled my principal. I was so excited, I nearly dropped my glass.

But what happened next was even more interesting. The next day, after FIL pulled back and confirmed support, it started a second rally and broke through the previous high. Seeing the strong momentum, I added to my position and went in again. After this round of trades, the trading group went wild—everyone was sharing their results. Some called it the best trade of the year; one guy even said the profits were equivalent to three months of his salary.

At the end of the day, when it comes to trading, having a feel for the market is important, but understanding market structure is even more crucial. The logic behind FIL’s move was actually very clear: long sideways accumulation, volume drying up to the extreme, and then a breakout with heavy volume. If you can catch these kinds of opportunities, doubling your money really isn’t just a dream.
