$BTC With Trump's self-victorious posting, this trade war should be coming to a close. Let's review the trading during this period; I must say it is indeed a typical example of Trump's negotiation style – he really only wanted that 10%.
1. Contracts. After being wrecked for 4000U by $TUT last month, I haven't been active much and have gradually shifted my focus to earning profits and financial management. During the trade war, I made over 1000U by shorting, but I only caught one drop; I exited early on the second drop and during the bottom fishing.
2. Conservative Strategy API. After adjusting the code on the 25th of last month, I have opened 11 trades so far, with a win rate of 100%, and a profit of about 18%. In the meantime, to make it easier for friends to track, I have transferred the opening trades to signal trading.
3. Flexible Strategy API. I just finished writing the code at the end of the month, and after deploying it online, I made profits on 15 trades in two days. Then I encountered extreme market conditions due to the trade war, resulting in a loss on 3 trades. After adjusting the code on the 7th, my overall record is 30:5, with a real loss of 15.6% and a floating loss of 15%. I still need to adjust the code, but I don't know if I will encounter such extreme conditions again to test it. I will only start offering signals when it can be as stable as the conservative strategy during extreme conditions.
4. Arbitrage. Because I lost too much money on contracts, I only tried many arbitrage strategies in frustration. Generally includes: various exchange financial products (I've currently taken all 1000U financial projects on Gate), airdrops, etc. (tried a few, but it's too tiring and not worth it), and some funding pool mining projects (mainly Berachain, haha). Overall, it's okay; exchange financial products are roughly at an annualized rate of 6-9% (but can only invest a few thousand U); arbitrage requires constant information searching and as many devices/accounts as possible. I participated in a few and made over ten U, but I got lazy; taking advantage of the drop in coin prices, I bought a batch of spot to mine on Berachain, set up an auto mint/stake, with a theoretical annualized return that is shockingly high. I just hope I don't end up being the last one running.
Perhaps this is the life of an ordinary person in the cryptocurrency world, without getting rich quickly, occasionally enjoying some meat, but more often getting beaten up. With the biggest negative factors disappearing, unless Trump changes his stance again, there shouldn't be any major negative news coming up. I'm particularly not good at making money in this kind of market where everything is rising; moving forward, apart from slowly closing my short positions, I will focus more on strategy and work. I hope everyone reading this post makes a huge profit in the upcoming market.
