#Strategy加码BTC配置 How can a trading account on an exchange achieve stable growth? I've been pondering this question for 8 years.



Back in 2017, I started with $5,000. I didn't want to be a prediction master, nor did I want to stay up all night watching charts and betting on ups and downs. Later, I developed a set of rules, with the core idea summed up in one sentence: as long as you don't blow up your account, there's a chance to turn things around.

**First Tip: Take Profits in Batches**

Whenever the account increases by 10% of the principal, I withdraw half of the profit. The remaining part continues to run. What's the benefit of this? When the market rises, I can continue to earn from the remaining position; when it falls, it's just floating profit loss, and the principal remains untouched. Over 8 years, I have done this 37 times, with the highest weekly withdrawal reaching $180,000. Drawdowns have never exceeded 8%.

**Second Tip: Multi-Timeframe Allocation**

Don't put all your chips in one direction. My approach is: look at the big picture on the daily chart, determine the trading range on the 4-hour chart, and find the actual entry point on the 15-minute chart.

Open two orders on the same coin: one following the trend, and one in a reverse position. Each position risks no more than 1.5%. Once taking profit, aim for a 5x return. During market oscillations, I can profit from both sides. During the LUNA crash, I held both long and short positions, and my account increased by 42% in one day.

**Third Tip: Stop Loss as Entry Cost**

Stop loss isn't wasting money; it's about gaining the "qualification" to continue trading. If the market moves as expected, the stop loss becomes a trailing stop; if it moves against me, I exit decisively. Long-term, my win rate is 38%, but the key figure is the risk-reward ratio—risk $1 to make $1.9 each time.

**Adhere to Three Iron Rules**

Divide your funds into 10 parts, use at most 1 part per trade, and keep total position size under 3 parts. After two consecutive losses, stop immediately and reflect. After doubling the account, withdraw 20% to lock in profits.

Sound conservative? That's because in trading, winning isn't about how many times you win; it's about surviving long enough. The market isn't afraid of you being wrong about the direction; it's afraid you won't get another chance.

so the real edge isn't prediction, it's just... not blowing up? that's where half the retail traders already lose the plot tbh

ngl this 38% win rate but 1.9x risk/reward ratio... that's the actual sauce nobody talks about. most people obsess over accuracy when they should be obsessing over staying alive, you know?

ngl the whole "38% winrate but 1.9x payoff ratio" thing is just governance theater—sounds precise until you realize it's just survivor bias dressed up in risk management clothing. real question is what happens when liquidity dries up and your cute little rebalancing scheme meets actual market friction, you know?

Haha, it took 8 years to realize that not getting liquidated is the key. Why didn't I do it earlier? But indeed, living longer is the way to go. Too many people fall before dawn. It's easy to say, but few can truly stick to this discipline.

Hey, with a 38% win rate, can you still make such profits? The risk-reward ratio is truly the key.

Bro, I respect this set of logic. The key is that you really live long enough, much smarter than those leveraged liquidation victims.

Wow, a 38% win rate can still earn a 1.9 times profit and loss ratio. This is true profit-making, not just the illusion of predicting right or wrong every day.

8 years, 37 liquidations? Is that real? That data sounds a bit intense... But that 1.9 profit and loss ratio is indeed the key. I have to give it a try.

Wow, really only an 8% drawdown in 8 years? That number is a bit outrageous, but the approach is indeed brilliant. The key is that the profit-loss ratio is 1:1.9, with a win rate of only 38%, yet it can still grow steadily. That's the logic of a winner.

Things developed over 8 years do have some substance, but bro, how do you maintain a steady growth with a win rate of 38%? I'm truly impressed. The key is still that one sentence—survive longer to win.
