Fans' Comeback: From Liquidation to Guaranteed Profit Survival Rules

Money in the crypto world comes quickly, but it can disappear even faster. Two months ago, a fan approached me with just 2000 USDT left in his pocket—this was his “last shot” after saving and scrimping.

He had previously lost 30,000 USDT following trades, and he said, “If I lose again this time, I’m out for good.”

Now he has a solid account balance of over 100,000 USDT, relying not on luck, but on the two words “survival rules.”

I guided his trading approach to be as simple as possible: first, he took 200 USDT to test the waters, risking only 20 USDT at 100x leverage each time. If he was right, a 1% increase would double his investment; if wrong, it would go to zero immediately. The secret to surviving lies in a few “hard rules”:

① Cut losses immediately, don’t hold on stubbornly

The most common mistake beginners make is “waiting for a rebound.” I learned my lesson after getting liquidated twice. Now he has set a hard stop-loss: open position + 1.5%, and if it hits that point, he closes the position unconditionally.

The market doesn’t care if you’re unwilling to accept a loss; if your stop-loss is triggered, just exit. The market trends don’t affect you at that moment.

② If you lose five trades in a row, take a break

Sometimes the market behaves like a drunken bull, staggering with no clear direction. If you force trades, you’re just giving money to the market. My rule is: if you lose five trades in one day, immediately turn off the computer and watch a show; come back the next day.

Last week he lost three trades in a row and went straight to have hotpot with friends; the next day, the market started to trend positively.

③ Withdraw profits as soon as you make money

The numbers in your account are an illusion; only what you withdraw is real.

I advised him to withdraw half of his profit every time he made 2000 USDT; the remaining can fluctuate as it pleases. Last week, when Bitcoin plummeted by 10%, he had just withdrawn his profit, and the remaining position became a “safety cushion.”

④ During sideways markets, stay flat and only trade trends

100x contracts are a double-edged sword: they can take you soaring with a trend, but during sideways markets, they act as a reaper’s scythe. He now only focuses on daily trend analysis, using Bollinger Bands + MACD for signal confirmation, and prefers watching short videos rather than opening new positions when there’s no clear direction.

⑤ Never exceed 8% of your total capital in position size

I never let him go all-in; with 2000 USDT capital, he only risks 160 USDT. Going all-in with leverage is like piling ten plates at a buffet; the tenth plate could send you straight to the hospital.

How stable is the mindset with a light position? Last week, when Ethereum spiked 8%, he was snacking on sunflower seeds while monitoring the market, and his profits kept rolling in.

Brothers, trading contracts isn’t about who’s the strongest; it’s about who can survive the longest.
