Trading cryptocurrencies for 10 years, the most painful lesson is hidden in three liquidation orders.
In 2017, I put everything on the line with altcoins, going from 500,000 U to just 30,000;
In 2020, I opened a 10x leverage bet on the market, losing the last 20,000 in three days – it wasn’t until I was left with only 2,000 U that I realized that for small funds to survive, it’s not about betting on luck, but about the determination to split the money into three parts.
I divided this 2,000 U into three portions: 800 U hidden in a 'trend position', only trading the 4-hour golden cross of BTC, using 3x leverage, with a stop-loss set at the liquidation blind spot of previous lows. In November 2022, when BTC dropped to 16,000 USD, I used this 800 U to go long, setting the stop-loss at 15,800 (avoiding the dense liquidation area at 16,000), and held until it reached 24,000 USD, making a profit of 1,200 U from this single trade.
The remaining 1,200 U was even more crucial: 1,000 U for 'extreme market conditions', and 200 U locked as firestarter. In March last year, when Silicon Valley Bank collapsed, BTC plummeted to 19,000 USD, and the panic index across the network soared to 90. I used 1,000 U to open a 5x long position, and in three days it rebounded to 28,000 USD, earning another 1,800 U. At this point, my account had grown to 5,000 U, and I withdrew 2,000 U to store as stablecoins — I’ve seen too many people increase their positions after making a profit, only to lose both principal and profit later.
I later taught this method of dividing positions to my fan, Lao Yang. At that time, he had only 1,500 U left, and according to my rules, he divided it into: 600 U for trend position, 800 U for extreme moments, and 100 U locked. Last June, when ETH dropped to 1,800 USD, he used the trend position to go long, with a stop-loss hidden at 1,780 USD, and when it rose to 2,400 USD, he made a profit of 480 U; in September, when the entire network reached the peak of FOMO, he used 800 U to short, earning another 600 U in three days. Now Lao Yang has 70,000 U in his account, and he says the best thing is that 'he never had to endure the night of liquidation again.'
After 10 years of trading cryptocurrencies, I’ve understood one principle: retail investors' opponent is never the main force, but their own greed to always want to 'turn the tables in one go.' Treating 2,000 U as 200,000 U in planning, waiting when needed, cutting losses when necessary, and the money will naturally grow over time.
How many people have lost hope in fluctuations, yet firmly stabilized their position or even turned it around with this system? Countless — but the core is just one: dare to follow, dare to act, and do not procrastinate.
The next wave of layout has already been drawn, with points, rhythm, and positions all clearly marked. If you mix with @币来财888 , just understand one principle: precise targeting, no unnecessary efforts.
But let’s be clear upfront: only people with strong execution will be brought along!
