3 Iron Rules for Making a Killing Without Getting Liquidated
Veterans exchange discipline for compound interest. ❌ Newbie Trap: "Heavy position against single bet miracles, stubbornly holding on to floating losses to recover capital, extreme point position obsession" → Result: A black swan event leads directly to zero ✅ Profit Kernel: 1. Position Management > Point Precision - Single position opening ≤ 10% of principal, only increase the position in steps after floating profit (e.g.: increase 5% after a 5% rise) - Stop Loss to Protect Capital Must Be Included: For example, if a long position drops below the cost price by 1%, it will be automatically liquidated. 2. Take Profits in Batches - Eat the "fish body market": Take profit of 20% for every breakthrough of resistance level during the upward trend (e.g.: Sell in batches when ETH rises by 50 dollars) - Move the stop loss up: After the floating profit exceeds 20%, move the stop loss line to the breakeven point. 3. Anti-human training - Do not be greedy for absolute tops and bottoms (missing a 10% increase is better than being trapped at 50%) - Strategy Closed Loop: Set 3 target positions (Stop Loss/Take Profit 1/Take Profit 2) simultaneously when opening a position. - No regrets afterwards: Replace emotional self-blame with a review of trading records 🔥 Blood and Tears Truth: "In a bull market, it relies on courage; in a bear market, it relies on stability. Only by surviving long enough can one laugh in the end." (Historical data: In 2021, 98% of those who got liquidated on 1000x contracts had exited before the bear market.) --- Operation mantra: Light position to test direction → Floating profit snowball → Capital preservation to prevent counter-kill → Harvesting fruits in batches.

3 Iron Rules for Making a Killing Without Getting Liquidated
Veterans exchange discipline for compound interest.
❌ Newbie Trap:
"Heavy position against single bet miracles, stubbornly holding on to floating losses to recover capital, extreme point position obsession"
→ Result: A black swan event leads directly to zero
✅ Profit Kernel:
1. Position Management > Point Precision
- Single position opening ≤ 10% of principal, only increase the position in steps after floating profit (e.g.: increase 5% after a 5% rise)
- Stop Loss to Protect Capital Must Be Included: For example, if a long position drops below the cost price by 1%, it will be automatically liquidated.
2. Take Profits in Batches
- Eat the "fish body market": Take profit of 20% for every breakthrough of resistance level during the upward trend (e.g.: Sell in batches when ETH rises by 50 dollars)
- Move the stop loss up: After the floating profit exceeds 20%, move the stop loss line to the breakeven point.
3. Anti-human training
- Do not be greedy for absolute tops and bottoms (missing a 10% increase is better than being trapped at 50%)
- Strategy Closed Loop: Set 3 target positions (Stop Loss/Take Profit 1/Take Profit 2) simultaneously when opening a position.
- No regrets afterwards: Replace emotional self-blame with a review of trading records
🔥 Blood and Tears Truth:
"In a bull market, it relies on courage; in a bear market, it relies on stability. Only by surviving long enough can one laugh in the end."
