Guide to Unwinding Positions: Practical Strategies
Recently, many people have been asking how to unwound their positions. As an experienced trader who has navigated countless bull and bear markets, I will provide you with an efficient, hardcore process for unwinding positions. If you follow it, you can generally keep losses to a minimum or even turn things around:
First, distinguish which type of 'being stuck' you belong to.
Stuck in a Range: For example, buying high and selling low within a consolidation range, with many opportunities due to market fluctuations. In this case, holding patiently or doing T+0 trades has a high chance of unwinding.
Stuck in a Trend: For example, buying at the top or failing to stop-loss when the market shifts from bull to bear. In this case, do not stubbornly hold on; the longer you wait, the deeper the losses.
Do you have any capital left?
If you have capital: Avoid going all in. You must gradually add to your position to lower your average cost, while doing T+0 trades to reduce losses.
If you have no capital: Don't expect a miracle to unwind your positions. It’s advisable to decisively cut losses or switch coins, focusing your efforts on more promising markets.
Understand the market position and avoid blindly adding to your position.
In the early stage of a rebound/strong support area: You can take small positions to buy low and perform rolling trades.
If there are no clear signs of reversal, do not add to your position or make any moves. Learn to wait with a cash position for opportunities.
Learn to manage rolling operations to reduce costs.
Example:
For instance, if you bought ETH at 3900 and it is now at 3600, Sell a portion to realize some cash, then wait for a pullback to 3500 to buy back. By repeating this process several times, your cost will naturally decrease.
When the market rebounds one day, you won’t have to wait for the original price to unwind or even turn a loss into profit.
Make sure to review your trades and summarize your experiences.
Did you forget to set a stop loss? Was your position too heavy? Or were you impulsively buying high? Understand this so that you won’t get stuck next time.
Leave a comment with the coin you've been stuck in and your cost price, and I will help you break down a specific plan.
Recently, weak non-farm data and moderate inflation have led the market to generally believe that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates in September, with a probability exceeding 80%. Some even suggest a potential one-time cut of 50 basis points. Investor risk appetite has clearly rebounded:
U.S. stocks, including the Dow Jones and S&P futures, have risen;
Bitcoin has reached an all-time high;
The VIX, or volatility index, has dropped to a year-low.
2. Boost in Investor Confidence
Strengthened expectations for rate cuts have driven funds towards risk assets, while the U.S. dollar index has weakened and gold prices have risen, indicating the market is re-evaluating the possibility of a 'loose environment'.
3. Potential Concerns
Although the market is optimistic, the bond market curve shows a phenomenon of falling short-term yields and elevated long-term yields, reflecting concerns over fiscal deficits and long-term inflation. Some viewpoints warn that the world may enter an era of 'fiscal dominance', where central banks are forced to maintain low interest rates and their independence is constrained.
4. Key Milestones Ahead
The market's next focal point is Powell's speech at Jackson Hole. Historical experience shows that his statements often trigger significant fluctuations in the dollar, yields, and stock markets, potentially marking a turning point in sentiment.
The current BTC/USDT quote is around 113,500, with an intraday decline of about -1.7%.
From the four-hour perspective, the candlestick has continuously retraced and is near the lower Bollinger Band, showing signs of short-term overselling.
2. Support and Resistance
Key support level below: 112,500 (today's low and close to previous platform support).
If it breaks, it may continue to test the 111,500 - 111,000 range.
If it stabilizes above 113,000 and rebounds, there is a chance to hit around 116,000 in the short term.
3. Indicator Reference
MACD: DIF and DEA have crossed downwards, green bars continue, but momentum has shortened, indicating that bearish strength is gradually weakening.
BIAS: The short-term deviation rate is at a low level, suggesting potential momentum for a rebound from overselling in the market.
Operational Suggestions
Long Position Strategy: You can try to take a light long position in the 112,800 - 113,200 range, with a stop loss below 112,200, targeting initially 114,800 - 115,500.
Short Position Strategy: If it rebounds to 115,500 - 115,800 and faces resistance, consider a high short, targeting a return to 113,500 - 112,800.
1. The Federal Reserve's Regulatory Attitude is Shifting Towards Openness
Allowing Federal Reserve Employees to Hold a Small Amount of Crypto Assets Regulatory Vice Chair Michelle Bowman stated that Federal Reserve employees should be allowed to hold "de minimis" (very small amounts) of crypto assets to enhance regulators' understanding of technology and their regulatory capabilities. This proposal aims to attract professionals who understand crypto and help practitioners avoid being overly cautious due to a lack of understanding of the technology.
A Call to Say Goodbye to the Old 'Cautious' Mindset At the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium, she urged regulators to move away from overly conservative attitudes and to actively incorporate innovations such as blockchain and AI into bank regulation, while proposing that differentiated regulatory strategies should be adopted based on the size and complexity of banks.
2. The Federal Regulatory 'Crypto Special Project' Will be Canceled
The 'Novel Activities Supervision Program' is About to End The Federal Reserve announced it will close the supervision program for special crypto banking activities, shifting to the regular regulatory framework to monitor related behaviors to promote innovative development.
Revoke Outdated Regulatory Notices The Federal Reserve Board has revoked regulatory notices from 2022 and 2023 concerning banks' crypto assets and 'dollar token' activities, indicating that related regulatory expectations will align more closely with traditional financial businesses, becoming more open and institutionalized.
3. Regulatory Framework Enters a Critical Window
Basel's Crypto Asset Banking Regulatory Standards Under Scrutiny The crypto asset regulatory rules being developed by the Basel Committee under the Bank for International Settlements, which are expected to be implemented in 2026, have been deemed "too conservative and impractical" by industry groups, prompting calls to delay implementation and reassess them.
4. Congress Making Significant Progress on Crypto Legislation
The 'GENIUS Act' Becomes Law This bill requires stablecoins to be backed 1-to-1 by U.S. dollars or other low-risk assets, establishes transparent auditing obligations, and creates a dual regulatory mechanism at the federal and state levels. This is the first comprehensive stablecoin regulation in the United States, officially signed into law on July 18, 2025.
Against CBDC, Clarifying Regulatory Agency Responsibilities On the same day, Congress also passed the 'Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act,' which prevents the issuance of central bank digital currencies (CBDC), and the 'Digital Asset Market Clarity Act,' which clarifies the regulatory boundaries between the SEC and CFTC, further promoting clarity in the crypto legislative framework.
DOGE current price is $0.212, with an intraday decline of -2.52%. After falling below the $0.22 level, it continues to face pressure. The candlestick has touched near the 20-day moving average (about $0.219), and currently, bulls and bears are battling at the key support level.
Bullish Perspective
DOGE has found support in the $0.21-$0.22 range. If buying pressure can hold, there will be an opportunity to push the price higher.
Primary Target: $0.23-$0.24
Strong Breakthrough: If it stabilizes and breaks above $0.25, it is likely to challenge the resistance levels of $0.27-$0.29.
Bearish Perspective
If DOGE fails to hold the support around $0.21, the probability of further declines is high:
Downside Potential: May drop to $0.20 → $0.19
In extreme cases, it may test the lower Bollinger Band support at $0.18-$0.185.
From the four-hour chart, BTC peaked around 124545 and has been declining ever since. It has currently broken below the middle band (115807) and is approaching the lower band support (112391).
The current price is at 113262, just a step away from the lower band support, and remains bearish in the short term.
2. MACD Indicator
The MACD green bars continue to expand, and the DIF and DEA are diverging downwards, indicating that bearish momentum is still strong, with no signs of stabilization in the short term.
3. BIAS (Bias Rate)
BIAS6, 12, and 24 are all in negative territory, indicating that the price is below the moving averages, and market sentiment is weak. Short-term rebounds are likely, but the strength will be limited.
4. Bollinger Bands

Key resistance: 115800 (Bollinger middle band). If it cannot break through, the market will likely remain in a bearish consolidation.
Downward target: If 112000 is effectively broken, it may continue to test the 110500 – 109800 range.
Current price is around 4179, above the lower Bollinger Band (4136), indicating some short-term support, but overall still weak.

2. MACD
Both DIF and DEA are below the zero axis, and the MACD histogram continues to be negative, suggesting bearish momentum.
However, the green bars are shortening, showing signs of weakening, which means the bearish strength may gradually diminish.
3. Trading Volume
Trading volume continues to shrink, indicating that the downward momentum has been released, but there has not been a significant rebound in volume.
Impact of News
Recently, the market has been largely influenced by BTC, with ETH moving down in sync. If BTC stabilizes at key support levels, ETH may see a technical rebound; otherwise, there is still a risk of further declines.

Technical Analysis
1. Support Levels
114300 – 114500: Daily low area; if breached, it may further probe 113500.
113000: Previous dense position area; breaking below will accelerate the correction.
2. Resistance Levels
116800 – 117000: Moving average resistance zone; short-term bulls must break through to stabilize.
119200 – 119500: Overlapping with the middle Bollinger Band and previous rebound high points, a strong resistance area.
News
Recently, capital outflow of 185 million USD indicates that short-term funds remain cautious, but the overall position is around 10 billion, suggesting that institutions have not exited en masse, but rather a pattern of oscillation and accumulation. If there are no significant negative news in the market, the probability of a rebound still exists.
Trading Strategy
Long Position Strategy: If stabilizing after a pullback in the 114300 – 114500 zone, consider trying to buy low, targeting 116800 – 117000, and if broken, then look at 119200 – 119500. Stop-loss should be controlled below 113000.
Short Position Strategy: If the rebound does not break 116800 – 117000, consider lightly shorting, targeting down to 114500 – 113800. Stop-loss should be controlled above 117500.
Conclusion
The short-term trend remains weak and fluctuating; focus on the 114300 support and 117000 resistance. A breakout in either direction will usher in a new wave of volatility.
From the chart, we can see that BTC experienced a rapid decline after facing resistance above 118,000, hitting a low around 114,950, and is currently fluctuating near 115,300.
Bollinger Bands: The lower band has been breached, and the price is significantly deviated, indicating a demand for short-term pullback and correction.

Trading Strategy
Short-term Strategy:
1. If BTC stabilizes around 114,800—115,000 during a pullback, consider buying low with a target of 117,200—117,800. A break below 114,500 requires a stop-loss.
2. If it rebounds to the 117,200—117,800 resistance zone and encounters resistance, consider shorting with a target back to 115,000.
Medium-term Direction: The bearish trend remains, and only a stable position above 118,500 can reopen upward potential.
