In the tide of wealth in the crypto world, some are instantly swallowed by towering waves, while others can rise against the trend to create legends. Last year's bull market saw countless people dreaming of getting rich quick; some gambled with 100x leverage, only to lose everything due to a single needle's fluctuation; while I, using a set of 'anti-human' strategies, rolled $3,000 into $1 million. Today, I reveal this trading philosophy that has stood the test of market turmoil, especially the third point, which can be called a dividing line between retail investors and experts.
One, Leverage: Taming the Tiger Instead of Being Devoured
When the market is filled with legends of 'making a fortune overnight with 100x leverage,' I place shackles on desire. Leverage itself is not a monster; uncontrolled greed is the root of destruction. Those investors who were burst by a single needle in the bull market often forget the duality of leverage — it can amplify gains, but it will also exponentially amplify risks.
The core of my strategy is 'defensive as offensive': strictly controlling the leverage ratio below 5 times, dividing funds into 5 parts, using at most one part for each trade to avoid the gambler's mentality of putting all eggs in one basket. Every time I achieve a 30% profit, I immediately withdraw the principal, allowing profits to continue rolling in the market. This 'locking in profits' method not only secures the fruits of victory but also allows funds to grow continuously under no pressure.
Two, Orders: Layout Like a Sniper in Advance
In the rapidly changing crypto world, impulsive trades are often the start of losses. I treat each order as a precise military operation, predicting market trends in advance and laying 'ambushes' at key positions.
When the price approaches previous highs, I place orders 1% before the breakout, avoiding the risk of chasing highs while being able to capture the breakout in time; facing the potential risk of a sharp drop, my stop-loss is always set 3% below the entry price, using clear discipline to control losses. At key support and resistance levels, I set three layers of take profit to gradually realize profits, preventing market reversals from eating into my gains. This mindset of 'calculating defeat before the battle' allows me to maintain an advantage amid market fluctuations.
Three, Go with the Trend: Never Go Against the Trend
In the 2023 bull market, how many people were misled by the intuition of 'prices rising too sharply,' attempting to short the peak, only to lose everything? I firmly believe: trends are the best friends of investors, and trading against the trend is like catching flying knives with bare hands.
In an uptrend, I patiently wait for the price to pull back to the EMA21 moving average, which is an important support line for the short-term trend. I enter in batches here, which can lower costs and improve win rates; in a downtrend, even if I miss ten seemingly tempting rebounds, I will never easily bottom fish; when the market is in sideways consolidation, I choose to shut down and exit, not participating in a trendless war of attrition. This strategy of 'only eating the fish body' may miss some opportunities, but it also avoids most risks.
Four, Stop-Loss: A Survival Rule More Important Than Profit
That millionaire who went bankrupt in the bull market still believed before his death that 'Bitcoin will eventually come back up,' yet forgot that in a cruel market, being alive gives you a chance to turn things around. I view stop-loss as the lifeline of trading and have established ironclad rules:
Once the capital loss reaches 5%, I will immediately stop-loss without hesitation; for profitable trades, when the floating profit reaches 10%, I will immediately move the stop-loss to the cost line, ensuring that this trade will not incur a loss; at the same time, I always reserve 20% of the funds outside the exchange as a 'safety cushion' against black swan events. This principle of 'cutting losses and letting profits run' allows me to preserve my capital amid the market's storms.
Five, Review: Trading for 15 Minutes for an 85% Win Rate
My high win rate does not stem from advanced technical analysis, but from a daily, unwavering 15-minute review. During this time, I repeatedly ask myself three questions: Was this trade executed strictly according to the plan, or was it influenced by emotions? Are the stop-loss and take-profit settings reasonable? If I could start over, how would I improve?
By constantly reflecting on the gains and losses in trading, I gradually formed a trading system that suits me and continuously optimized it. This method of 'progressing through summarization' is far more valuable than blindly frequent trading.
There is no holy grail in the crypto world that guarantees profits without losses. Those who survive in the harsh market are often those who dare to go against human weaknesses. When others chase prices and panic sell, I choose to patiently wait; when others are greedy and fearful, I adhere to trading discipline. Those who once mocked me for being 'timid' are now borrowing money from everywhere to make up for losses.
