$BTC 3000U to 30,000U: A Survivor's Confession
At three in the morning, another liquidation reminder jolted me awake. This is the third time this month. I stared blankly at my phone screen and suddenly realized a harsh truth: in this market, technical analysis cannot save a gambler.
Step One: Fight Against Your Instincts
The first hour after depositing is the most dangerous. I set strict rules for myself:
50% of the funds locked immediately into a cold wallet (with a 24-hour withdrawal delay)
The remaining funds divided into three parts (this simple action later became my lifeline)
First lesson in trading: Always leave yourself an exit, but when opening a position, act like a desperate gambler.
Step Two: Understand the Market's "Biological Clock"
After 37 liquidations, I discovered two devilish moments:
When Asian institutions adjust their positions (09:30-10:15)
Before and after CME futures open (20:00-20:45)
An interesting discovery: The 42nd minute after extreme market conditions is often the best time for a comeback.
Step Three: The Art of Profit Management
Now my profit process has become muscle memory:
Withdraw 20% of profits immediately (let profits run)
Open hedging positions using pure profits (this strategy allowed me to profit during LINK's crash)
The most expensive lesson: When the funding rate exceeds 0.12%, immediately reduce positions by 30%.
The Truth About Leverage
25x leverage is not a monster; the key is:
Liquidation heatmaps are treasure maps
OTC premiums are the dealer's business card
But what truly kept me alive is a self-developed "Panic Index" algorithm.
Final Realization
The market will not kill those who adhere to discipline. Behind every liquidation order are moments of loss of control. Remember: in this game, your greatest enemy is always yourself.
This market changes every day; you must seize the right moment to act. If you are still too confused, you might want to pay attention; I usually share some cutting-edge information and practical strategies. Feel free to come discuss and seize great opportunities together!
