5000U Violent Rolling Warehouse Increased by 1000 Times: A Leek's Self-Redemption
In May 2023, I lost 5 million in the crash of LUNA and contract liquidation.
Lying on the balcony of my rental apartment, I stared at the last 5273U in my Binance account, deciding to take revenge on the market with a precisely calculated gamble—not revenge, but to reclaim what I deserve.
Step 1: Choose the Battlefield
Only trade BTC/USDT perpetual contracts for three reasons:
1. Best liquidity, avoiding liquidation from spikes
2. Predictable volatility, with daily fluctuations of 3%-5% being the norm
3. Funding rates can replenish capital during sideways periods
Step 2: Position Formula
My original "5-15-30" rolling position rule:
5% of capital opens the first position (260U, 20x leverage ≈ 5% position)
Increase position by 30% every time it breaks the previous high/low on the 15-minute chart
When profits exceed 50% of capital, multiply leverage by 2
Step 3: Practical Combat in June 2023
On June 12, BTC plummeted from 25800 to 24800, and I shorted at 25300:
1. First position 20x short, profit 800U (capital → 6000U)
2. When it broke below 24800, added to the position with 30x short using profits
3. The next day, after CPI data was released, it dropped to 24000, and the account surpassed 20,000U
4. Before the SEC sued Binance in July, I used the same method to go long, and the capital reached 180,000U
The most crucial battle: On October 16, BTC faked a breakout at 30000, I noticed the CME futures gap + on-chain whale transfer anomalies, and shorted at 30150. After 36 hours it dropped to 28500, turning 5000U into 470,000U
Now you understand why I say, "The real risk is not volatility, but you not being in the car."
But in the end, I left a question: When the account exceeded 2 million, why did I actively close all positions? This decision later cost me an additional 3 million but helped me avoid the explosion in December...
