Some friends know that before I achieved my first small goal in life, I also suffered significant losses.
This happened about five years ago, and many people want to know how I turned things around after those losses. Today, I would like to share a few practical experiences: —— "The market rewards only the precise hunters from different emotional cries"
1. Data-driven decision making: Candlestick charts and capital flow First, one must abandon the mystical notion of "feelings". Every day, I must do three things during my review:
① Calculate the deviation of the BTC funding rate (＞0.1% indicates a potential trend change) ② Monitor the USDT premium rate (reduce positions immediately if it exceeds 2%) ③ Record large on-chain whale transfers (any single transfer >1000 BTC must be tracked)
2. Mandatory stop-loss mechanism Before each trade, I must set a dynamic stop-loss: Stop-loss price = Support level - (ATR×2)
3. Counter-intuitive operations The iron rule of adding positions against the trend:
When the market is in panic (Fear and Greed Index < 20): ① Identify blue-chip coins with RSI < 30 ② Add 1% to positions for every 3% drop ③ Close positions immediately after a 5% rebound FOMO counter-strategy:
When the group is flooding with "hundred times coins": ① Short related altcoins ② Go long on their benchmark leaders (like going long on DOGE when SHIB surges)
4. Cognitive upgrade Study various information weekly to break the information gap or read 2 on-chain reports (CoinMetrics/CoinGlass) to build a trading signal library
5. Survival bottom line: Better to earn less than to suffer large losses Never touch contract leverage (unless you are a professional trader) A single-day loss of 5% → mandatory shutdown for 24 hours Every quarter, review positions: eliminate strategies with returns < 15%
