I lost everything again...

The first mistake I realized is the shoulder x10. I thought it wasn't as dangerous as you say, and 5x is too slow.
The second mistake is the lack of a stop and the fear that as soon as the stop is triggered, the price will reverse.
The third mistake is the useless averaging for a better entry point.
The fourth mistake is the fear of closing even part of the position to avoid a large loss.

In the next post, I will try to help in solving these mistakes.

You need to prepare properly and then you won't get lost

1. Leverage x10 – too risky $BTC
Problem: High leverage accelerates not only profits but also losses. Even a small market reversal can liquidate your position.
Solution:
• Use x3–x5 if you want to trade with leverage. This reduces the risk of instant liquidation.
• The key is the size of the position, not the leverage. If you need more risk, it's better to increase the trade amount without excessive leverage.
2. Lack of stop-loss due to fear of false triggers
Problem: You are afraid the market will reverse after your stop, but without a stop you have no control over your losses.
Solution:
• Use a stop-loss based on structure (for example, below a support/resistance level).
• Do not place it too close to avoid accidental triggers.
• Alternative: Use alerts instead of a hard stop and close manually if the price is not moving in the desired direction.
3. Useless averaging down for a better entry point
Problem: Averaging down in a losing position only worsens the situation if the price goes against you.
Solution:
• Average down only within reasonable limits, for example, if there is a clear level, not just "just in case".
• Split entry into parts, but do not increase the position blindly
