Beginners Love All-In, Experts Only Bet: The Watershed of Position Management
Beginners always think that 'heavy positions can lead to wealth,' so they go all-in at every opportunity, either buying with full positions or going all-in. They believe that winning once can change their fate, but the result is often that they get hit back by a market reversal.
Experts, on the other hand, never go all-in; they bet, and each operation feels like playing a probability game.
The core of betting is position management. A mature expert knows that each investment is not an isolated event, but a part of a long-term systematic strategy. They will ask themselves, 'If I lose this bet, do I still have capital for the next one?' If the answer is no, they will decisively reduce their position or refrain from entering.
For example, if a meme coin suddenly surges due to good news, a beginner rushes in with a heavy position hoping for a big win, only to lose 70% three minutes later. Meanwhile, the expert might only invest 5% of their total position; even if it crashes, it's just a minor setback. They don't focus on the small gains but prioritize survival over victory.
Going all-in is an emotional decision, reflecting excessive confidence in the future; betting is a rational game, showing deep respect for risk. Because of this, beginners often blow up their accounts after seeing 'all green,' while experts can continue to fight even after three consecutive losses.
The crypto world does not reward reckless gamblers; it only rewards those who survive and thrive as long-term bettors.
