Tips for breaking even,
1. Dynamic stop-loss for breaking even—defensive wisdom of retreating to advance
Core logic: Cut losses, amplify gains
- Practical application: When price reverses and triggers the preset stop-loss line, decisively execute the stop-loss discipline.
Case: After entering a long BTC position, if it falls below the key support of $103,000, if the technical indicators confirm a breakdown (e.g., 4-hour chart closes below MA30), immediately close the position to avoid deep losses.
- Advanced technique: Use the "trailing stop-loss method", adjusting the stop-loss level upwards by 3% for every 3% price increase, dynamically locking in profits.
Applicable scenarios: Early stage of trend reversal/sudden black swan events
Risk warning: Easily triggered in volatile markets; need to adjust thresholds in conjunction with volatility indicators (ATR)
2. Pyramid averaging for breaking even—combining offense and defense in capital strategy
Core logic: Dilute costs, build momentum
- Operating norms:
1. The first averaging point must be at least 8%-10% lower than the initial entry price (e.g., for an ETH first entry at $2150, the averaging point must be below $1980)
2. Use a "1:0.5:0.3" pyramid averaging ratio to ensure controllable risk
3. Strictly set a second stop-loss (3% below the total cost line after averaging)
- Success factors: Must confirm that the medium to long-term trend has not changed (e.g., ETH weekly chart remains in an upward channel, on-chain staking volume continues to grow)
Applicable scenarios: Short-term oversold market where main funds have not exited
Risk warning: Adding positions in a one-sided bear market = increasing risk exposure; must be combined with fundamental analysis
3. Multi-dimensional hedging for breaking even—the ultimate weapon of comprehensive risk control
Core logic: Risk-neutral, traversing bull and bear markets
- Classic strategy combination:
① Cross-period hedging: Hold long BTC futures while selling equivalent weekly call options to collect premiums
② Cross-species hedging: Pairing long ETH with short LDO (targeting LSD track β risk)
③ Options protection: Buy out-of-the-money put options to construct an "insurance strategy", capping maximum loss at the premium
- Case practice:
When the BTC long position incurs a 5% loss, immediately open a short position on the ETH/BTC exchange rate to hedge against currency strength risks, or buy VIX volatility index derivatives
Applicable scenarios: High leverage positions/systemic risk warming period
Core advantage: Retain the potential for original positions to rise while avoiding uncontrollable downside risks
