#2026年比特币行情展望 Watching an experienced trader who has been in the market for nine years, with an account now in the eight-figure range. The most impressive thing isn't the return rate, but that the maximum drawdown has never exceeded 8%. Starting capital was only 5,000 USD—what does this mean? It means he treats trading as a replicable business system, not gambling.

Looking at people around—doubling their account in a year and then wiping it out, cycle after cycle. Emotions control their positions, imagination replaces strategy, and in the end, they can only lie in the liquidation notification.

This senior taught me three things:

**First: Take profits when the market is good, never touch the principal**
When earning 10%, immediately withdraw half to a cold wallet, and let the remaining profit continue to grow. The benefit of this is—if the market continues, you compound with "pure profit"; if the market crashes, your core capital remains safe. Over five years, I’ve used this method 37 times, with the weekly maximum withdrawal reaching 180,000 USD.

**Second: For the same coin, both long and short positions should be prepared**
For major coins like BTC and ETH, pursue breakouts with long positions to catch trends, and set short positions in overbought zones for hedging. The extreme points where others get liquidated are exactly where I set take-profit levels. In 2022, during the LUNA crash of 90%, some wiped out overnight, while others gained plenty from dual positions.

**Third: Stop-loss is a ticket to the next opportunity**
Always keep losses within 1.5%. Use this small cost to gain the qualification to participate in the next market cycle. When the market moves favorably, tighten the take-profit line; when the trend reverses, exit immediately. Being a step slow in cutting losses might cut your profits in half.

This market is never short of legends of overnight riches, but what’s missing are traders who survive through cycles. If you also want to replace emotion with a system, and gambling mentality with discipline—only by surviving can you wait for your own market cycle.
