Don't stubbornly hold on to ETH positions! If you continue to drag this out, your account might really get 'swallowed' by the market.
The current ETH fluctuations are quite exhausting—holding long positions above 4400, feeling anxious as prices retrace; holding short positions below 4300, caught halfway up by the rebound, opening the account feels like watching a 'loss countdown'. Are you even losing your appetite?
A few days ago, I was with a friend who had a long position at ETH 4420 stuck for 3 days, from 'waiting for 4450 to break even' to 'thankful if it can return to 4380'. Finally, he couldn't hold on anymore and said to me, 'If it drops another 50 points, I won't have any living expenses left this month.'
I didn’t let him stubbornly wait and taught him to 'break down the position': first, cut 1/3 of the position to lock in losses within a recoverable range, then use the remaining funds to grab small rebounds—
• When it retraced to 4320, he added 10% long position, sold at 4360, and the profit directly filled an 80U loss;
• Last night, when it rebounded to 4380, he hedged with a short position, closed it when it dropped back to 4350, further reducing a 50U hole.
Now his average position cost has dropped to 4390, just one step away from breaking even, and he said, 'I finally dare to open the account now.'
Many people making mistakes holding ETH treat 'holding on' as 'perseverance', resulting in 'small losses' rolling into 'mountains of losses'. True recovery is about proactively earning back losses with 'active capital'—just like a car stuck in mud, stepping on the gas doesn’t help; you need to place a stone (short-term profits) to get out.
If you have ETH positions stuck, don’t wait for a 'miracle':
Private message me your positions, and in 10 minutes, I’ll give you a plan:
👉 Long positions stuck at 4400+: how much to add when it retraces to 4350, how much to sell on the rebound at 4380, clear as day;
👉 Short positions stuck at 4300-: how to hedge if it rises to 4380, how to reduce positions if it drops back to 4330, all in one go;
👉 No need to monitor constantly, I’ll notify you at the right levels, just a couple of taps on your phone can gradually reduce your losses.
The key to recovering ETH positions isn’t waiting for the market to 'save you', it’s about you actively 'deconstructing the position'—if you continue to drag it out, you might lose even the principal needed to deconstruct the position in the fluctuations.
