6 Life-Saving Rules from an 8-Year Veteran in the Crypto World: The 4th Rule Helped Me Avoid Going to Zero 3 Times!
Do you know why 90% of people can’t survive a bull-bear cycle? I have summarized these survival rules, which are 100 times more important than technical analysis, at the cost of going bankrupt 5 times over 8 years...
1· Life-Saving Level Rule (Recommended to be engraved on your monitor)
Position size is your oxygen mask
ARB Positioning Strategy
Batch Price Position Ratio Result
1 $1.2 30% Break-even Line
2 $0.9 50% Major Profit Zone
3 $0.6 20% Excess Returns
Core: Always keep 30% of your bullets to deal with black swan events
2· Good News = Death Sentence
Latest Incident: A certain L2 announced a partnership with Nvidia after

Data for the last three years before festivals:
https://example.com/festival-chart)
Average drop of 23% in the 7 days before Spring Festival/New Year
My operation: Reduce position by 50% 3 days in advance
4· Volume Code
Death Volume: Continuous 3-day declining volume = Main force retreating
Golden Volume: Single-day crash + trading volume × 3 = Panic selling exhausted
In Practice: During the BTC flash crash, discovered through OKX depth chart
90% of the selling volume came from 3 addresses
There was a $200 million buy order lurking at $58,000 below
Decisively bottomed out, earning 20% in 48 hours
Ultimate Survival Rule
5· 5% Stop-Loss Line
Mathematical Truth:
Loss of 5% → Need to earn 5.26% to break even
Loss of 50% → Need to earn 100% to break even
My stop-loss system:
Falls below 4-hour EMA21
Single-day loss exceeds 3% of total funds
Major unexpected bad news (cut immediately regardless of price)
6· Three Tricks for Stable Profits
1. Volume-Price Lie Detection:
When rising, volume < previous high = false breakout
2. Trend Following Technique:
Only trade bullish coins above the 30-day moving average
3. Dynamic Take-Profit Method:
Raise the principal after 50% profit, profits aimed to double
In the 2022 bear market, I used these three tricks to profit 68%, outperforming 99% of fund managers
There’s a saying on Wall Street:
In a bull market, make money; in a bear market, gain experience; in a monkey market, learn lessons. If you really want to survive in the crypto world for the long term, relying solely on technical skills is far from enough.
What you need is a system, discipline, and anti-human nature training!
