#密码资产动态追踪 Leverage to the max, impulsively opening trades, panicking at the slightest market tremor—have you ever had this problem?



Many people think they are trading, but in reality, they are just using their principal to buy roller coaster tickets. Making profits ten times, only to be wiped out in one liquidation. This is not an exception; it’s the norm.

The market drops right after you enter, surges immediately after you sell, as if the market is deliberately against you. Even more heartbreaking, what was just a small correction, but you refuse to cut losses, stubbornly holding on, only to get liquidated at the bottom. Then the market rebounds, making you so angry you want to smash your phone.

I’ve seen too many people fall into these three traps:

**High leverage**—not an accelerator, but a countdown. It gives you a thrill, then resets to zero in a second.

**Chasing highs and selling lows**—always buying at emotional peaks, selling at rational moments. Repeatedly getting harvested.

**Stubborn holding**—turning a loss that could be stopped into a tragedy of liquidation.

Later, I completely changed my approach.

Look at the larger cycle; only trends longer than 4 hours are worth following. One-minute fluctuations? Just noise, don’t be led by it. The real opportunities are in a bigger framework.

Only trade high-probability swings, avoid chaotic small-level oscillations. Precision is not a pursuit; it’s the price of survival.

Set stop-losses on every trade. Keep losses manageable, make risks transparent. Not for perfection, but to survive until the next opportunity.

Most importantly—

I limit each trade’s loss to within 2% of the total capital.

This means even if I make mistakes on ten trades in a row, the account won’t die. As long as I endure this period, a good market can turn everything around.

This is the secret to survival.

The harsh reality in the crypto world: opportunities are never lacking, but most people have already fallen in some bear market. Those who survive the bull market are not the most technically skilled, but the most disciplined and the ones who last the longest.

You’re not short of effort, and this market isn’t short of opportunities. What you truly lack is a strategy that can keep you alive steadily in this market.

That hits close to home. I'm the one who completely wiped out in a single liquidation...

Ah, here we go again—a story of "I've turned over a new leaf"... But honestly, a 2% stop-loss is really tough; the one who survives the longest is the true winner.

When you max out leverage, that's when you should realize your account's expiration date has been set.

Really, leverage is poison; it’s gone in one round. --- Always get wiped out because of not willing to cut losses, heartbreaking. --- Living is the highest return; that’s no lie. --- Heard the 2% stop-loss rule countless times, but just can’t stick to it. --- The hardest thing in the crypto world isn’t making money, it’s surviving to see the next round. --- When chasing gains and cutting losses, you simply can’t stop; emotions completely take over. --- The feeling of cutting at the bottom and bouncing back is really frustrating; you only understand after experiencing it. --- It’s actually a discipline issue; most people simply can’t do it. --- Discipline > skills, is this order correct? --- Filtering out too much noise with the 4-hour chart is really effective; why didn’t I think of this before? --- The phrase “one second to zero” refers to the me of yesterday.
