#美国非农就业数据未达市场预期 Three Trading Habits That Turn Market Movements into an ATM
Starting with 4200U in 2017 and now, 8 years without a liquidation. Some people around me have been liquidated on futures, some have mortgaged their houses, but my account has steadily grown, with a maximum drawdown of no more than 8%. Basically, I don’t gamble on price movements, don’t rely on insider info, don’t believe in superstition, and treat the market as a business—acting as the market maker rather than the retail trader.
**First Trick: Lock in Profits and Compound, Insure Your Earnings**
Open a position with both take-profit and stop-loss orders. When profits reach 10% of the initial capital, immediately move 50% to a cold wallet, and continue to roll over the remaining "easy money." If the market continues in your favor, enjoy compound growth; if it reverses, you only give back at most half, keeping your principal safe. Over 8 years, I’ve taken profits 58 times, with the largest weekly withdrawal reaching 220,000U, so much that the exchange customer service called to verify.
**Second Trick: Multi-Timeframe Dislocation Trading, Double Profits in Range-Bound Markets**
Simultaneously analyze daily, 4-hour, and 15-minute charts. The daily chart determines the main trend, the 4-hour defines the trading range, and the 15-minute finds entry points. Split the same coin into two orders: A order follows the trend with a stop-loss just below the daily low; B order places a limit sell short and lurks in the overbought zone on the 4-hour chart. Both stop-losses are controlled within 1.5% of the principal, with take-profit set at 5 times. Markets spend 80% of the time in consolidation, so while others get liquidated, you profit from both sides. $BTC, $ETH are the most obvious—during the 2022 LUNA crash with a 90% drop, I took profits on both longs and shorts, and my account increased by 42% in a single day.
**Third Trick: Small Stop-Losses for Big Gains**
Treat stop-losses as low-cost entry tickets. A small 1.5% loss can lead to opportunities to hunt for market makers. When the market is strong, move your stop-loss to let profits run; when weak, exit promptly. Divide your capital into 10 parts, using at most 1 part per trade, and hold up to 3 positions simultaneously. After two consecutive losses, step back to relax—don’t rush to recover. When your account doubles, take 20% to buy US bonds or gold, so you can sleep soundly even in a bear market.

Not getting liquidated for 8 years sounds unbelievable. I just want to ask if these 58 profit-taking instances are real or if it's just another story being fabricated.

In simple terms, it's about turning off greed and eating with discipline. I especially appreciate the detail of "58 profit-taking instances," which is what a true trader should do.

Not getting liquidated for 8 years sounds impressive, but how many can actually do it? The key is attitude—don't be greedy.

Not getting liquidated for 8 years sounds impressive, but how many people can actually survive using this theory in real trading?

Sounds good, but not getting liquidated in 8 years sounds unbelievable. Surely you've experienced a few heart-stopping moments, right?

A reliable trading strategy is so simple and straightforward... But avoiding liquidation for 8 years really depends on one's skills.

The logic of take profit and stop loss is fine, but the key is execution discipline. Most people simply can't do it.
