On 'Black Friday' in 2020, I stared at the remaining 3,780 dollars in my account and smashed the keyboard, leaving cracks. The ETH liquidation alert was still on the screen; that was my third liquidation. Originally, 200,000 in principal was almost gone, and even my wife couldn't help but delete my trading app, leaving a remark: 'You keep trading.'
Why is this 'rigid' position-building method effective?
Old Chen said that 80% of losses in the crypto world die because of two words: guessing the top and bottom.
In the past, I liked to predict the market, but ended up buying halfway and selling before takeoff. The harshest point of the 343 method is that it doesn't require you to guess the direction; it only requires you to follow the rules.
It's like stopping at a red light and going at a green light; you don't need to predict traffic, just follow the traffic signals. This method divides positions into three segments, following the price rhythm step by step.
'343 Position-Building Method' full process breakdown (taking 200,000 as an example).
1. [30% Trial Position]: Take a small action first, do not go all in, leave some for later.
Only select long-term stable mainstream coins (BTC, ETH, BNB), avoiding altcoins.
Invest 30% of the principal first — for example, take 60,000 out of 200,000; if BTC is at 30,000, buy 2.
This step is not to make money, but to gauge market sentiment, to see if the rise is real or the fall is false.
2. [40% Supplementary Position]: Core operation, reduce costs, refuse to chase highs.
After buying:
• Price up? Don't rush to chase; wait for a pullback to the 10-day moving average, then use 40% to add to your position.
• Price down? Add 10% of the position for every 10% drop (10% of 200,000 is 20,000), with a maximum of 80,000 added.
✅ Example:
• Buy BTC at 30,000: 60,000.
• Price down to 27,000: add 20,000.
• Price down to 24,300: add another 20,000.
• Price down to 21,870: add another 20,000.
• Price down to 20,500: add the last 20,000.
Ultimately: bought 5.44 BTC, average cost 25,700. No need to return to 30,000; just rise to 26,000 to make a profit!
3. [30% Trend Position]: Wait for signal confirmation before entering, make fewer mistakes.
When the coin price stays above the 7-day moving average for 3 consecutive days, or when the MACD crosses above the zero line, you can add the last 30%.
This ensures 'heavy positions only when the odds are in your favor', unlike before when I relied on gut feeling to increase positions.
Harvesting profits is not based on impulse, but on rules.
The profit-taking of this method is extremely restrained:
• If the cost rises by 20%, sell 20%.
• Price up 50%, then sell 30%.
• Price up 100%, clear the remaining 50%.
Compared to making a quick profit at the peak, this method of selling in batches makes it easier to secure profits.
I once used this method during the 10x surge of SOL, taking profits multiple times. Although I didn't catch the top, I earned more and steadier than most people.
Why could I grow from 3,780 to 60 million? It all comes down to two points:
1. Emotional isolation: Knowing that if it drops 10%, I can add 20,000, without entanglement or betting on direction; my mindset stabilizes.
2. Limited loss, amplified gain: the worst loss is locked in the first trial position; if the trend is right, the profits from the last two positions can explode.
Last year, a fan used this method to grow 50,000 to 480,000. He told me, 'The hardest part is not the steps, but resisting the urge to be lazy and take shortcuts.'
The last heartfelt words.
In the crypto world, many people think they need secret tricks or genius operations to get rich. But after three liquidations, I realized that what really works is the method that looks the most 'foolish'.
The 343 position-building method turned my insomnia into a stable mindset; it brought me back from the edge of liquidation to living freely. The best part is: I feel happy even when it drops because I know how to add; I'm even calmer when it rises because I have a planned profit-taking strategy.
If you are also experiencing the cycle of 'buying means it drops, selling means it rises', if you don't know when to enter the market or how to safely add to your position, if you want to escape emotional trading and no longer be led by the market —
hit follow. Next, I will share the practical Excel template of this method, profit-taking dynamic adjustment techniques, and a list of commonly encountered pitfalls, helping you avoid years of detours, protect your principal, and achieve a better future.
