Five years ago, I entered the cryptocurrency world with 5000U and stepped on every pit a beginner could fall into:

I went all in to chase trends, panicking to cut losses at the first sign of a drop, and lost 30% from a single big drop. Not long after, 5000U was left with only 2000U.

What truly awakened me was a full-position flash crash — a 20% drop hit me, and I stared blankly at my account, making panic-driven decisions to add positions and cut losses, resulting in greater losses with every action.

At that moment, I understood that position management is never just about "how much to invest," but about providing a safety valve for emotions. When emotions stabilize, trading won't become distorted.

Later, I established a hard rule: no single position should exceed 10%, and important decisions should only be made after 2:30 PM.

The magic of a 10% position lies in the fact that even if there's a 20% drop, the loss remains within acceptable limits, and emotions won't collapse.

As long as the logic holds and the trend isn't broken, I can hold calmly; if I really need to cut losses, it won't affect subsequent operations, and my mindset will always be in check.

90% of losses in the market stem from a single word: "rush":

Rushing to enter, rushing to take profits; the more hurried, the more chaotic, and the more chaotic, the greater the losses.

I slowly discovered that slowing down actually leads to faster results — waiting for a day when the market clarifies before acting helps avoid volatility traps; using a 10% position to experiment, adding more when correct, and withdrawing promptly when wrong, never holding on stubbornly.

Don't think that small funds don't need position management; on the contrary, small funds have weaker risk tolerance and need to treat positions as a strategy, while techniques are merely tactics.

Relying on this "slow position" logic, 2000U gradually snowballed:

30,000, 150,000, 800,000, five years without a liquidation, with the maximum drawdown never exceeding 5%.

Many around me are superstitious about candlestick patterns, frequently facing liquidations while I steadily doubled my investment by "controlling positions and stabilizing emotions."

The most profound realization from ten years in the market:

No technique can replace position management. If small funds want to grow, don't get lost in complex indicator analysis; first control your positions and stabilize your emotions — this is the true key to stepping into the trading door.

In this market, walking alone is too lonely. I have already paved the way; do you want to walk together? @juice13
