After a 6 million loss, a rebirth! 5 iron rules to help retail investors turn losses into profits
The early morning of a 6 million loss: I comprehended the survival rules of the crypto world
Five years ago, on that night of red alerts, 3 hours turned 6 million principal into ashes. The negative numbers on the account felt like a cross, nailing down my illusions of gambler's thinking. Later, borrowing 120,000 as capital, I started over, engraving the liquidation cases into notes, and refining this system with a 90% success rate.
The core of rolling to 20 million in 90 days
Iron Rule 1: Leverage is not a weapon, it is a scalpel with blood
▶ Perpetual Contract Practical Manual: 100x Leverage Breakthrough Method
Underlying Logic: Infinite positions + funding rate pegged to spot, 1% principal to open positions = 99% capital for protection
Risk Formula: 100x leverage ≠ high risk, 5% position + 2% stop loss = safer than 30x full position
Position Template: 5000U principal
Single margin ≤ 250U (total capital 5%)
Fixed 2% stop loss, 5% profit triggers trailing stop loss
Iron Rule 2: Trading volume is the electrocardiogram of emotions; do not enter the market without volume
Volume Code:
Shrink in volume with rise = main force control, can hold; shrink in volume with fall = panic not released, must continue to fall
Breakthrough with low volume = real trend, high volume stagnation = escape point
Counterintuitive Operations:
Do not cut loss in early morning big drop (previous night’s negative news overreaction), do not chase high in late market big rise (main force testing the waters to lure the crowd)
Iron Rule 3: Five-wave structure sees through the life and death line of sectors
1st wave follows the trend → 2. 2nd wave washes out → 3. Main rising wave (largest increase) → 4. Divergence adjustment → 5. Raise and sell
Key Signal: When leading stocks are weak in supplementary rise, sectors are likely at their peak!
Iron Rule 4: Only follow one model; greed leads to liquidation
Newbie Taboo: Learning short-term trading today, doing long-term value tomorrow, and playing contract arbitrage the day after
Successful Path: Stick to 1 type of strategy (like MACD golden cross low absorption), practice until 70% success rate before expanding
Iron Rule 5: Stop loss is the only ticket to survive
Loss Iron Rule: 2% stop loss is not shameful; stubbornly holding until liquidation is the real loser
Supplementary Purchase Red Line: Never supplement when floating loss exceeds 10%, wait for clear stop-loss signals (like bullish engulfing)
Retail Investor Counterattack Formula: Emotional Management > Technical Analysis > Coin Selection Ability
From liquidation to doubling, I finally understand: the crypto world is not a casino, it is a battlefield that harvests emotions with discipline. Understanding trading volume = understanding the funds' hidden cards, maintaining the stop-loss line = safeguarding the capital for a comeback.
