Holding onto the 8000 stable assets I saved for half a year, I jumped into the circle, committing all the common beginner mistakes: chasing after surges like a drug addict (going all in when a certain altcoin skyrocketed), and cutting losses like self-harm (hoping for a rebound while being stuck). As a result, after two months, my account only had 1800 left. That night, I stared at the screen, my mind racing with "this money is better off in a fixed deposit," until the burning cigarette butt jolted me awake: this circle is not about "gambling on outcomes," but rather about "who can last longer."
Later, I spent three months reviewing all my operations and summarized three "anti-humanity disciplines" that helped me gradually roll 1800 into 32,000. Today, I'm sharing the valuable insights with you; if a beginner reads this, they can at least save 2 years of losses.
First: Put 'gambling nature' in a cage - position discipline is a lifeline.
My first iron rule for fans: At any time, do not exceed 8% of total capital in a single position, set the stop-loss at 2.5%, and lock in 40% of profits into stable assets first. Don't think '8% is too little and earns too slowly.' The root cause of beginners losing everything is the idea of 'going all in.'
Last month, a certain public chain token pulled back from 120 to 100, just hitting the 20-day moving average support, and the volume also shrank to a recent low - this was when I acted according to my discipline: I entered with 8% (which is 144) of the then-stable asset of 1800. Later, it rose to 110, and I immediately converted 43 of the profit into stable assets, leaving the remaining position to watch the market. Some said 'I earned less,' but do you know? After that, this token pulled back to 95 again. If I hadn't taken profits first, not only would the profits be gone, but I'd also be stuck.
Remember: 'Surviving' in this circle is 100 times more important than 'making quick money.' If you can't even protect your principal, no opportunity is related to you.
Second: Learn to 'lie down and wait for opportunities' - it earns more than 'blind operation.'
The most common mistake beginners make is 'fear of missing out': staring at the opening until the close, refreshing news until your eyes hurt, and rushing in when others say 'this will rise,' resulting in daily operations and daily losses. Now I only make moves 2-3 times a month, and the secret is 'waiting for others to make mistakes.'
Just like a while ago, when the Federal Reserve's interest rate hike expectations came out, the market fell directly into chaos, and the group was full of anxiety about 'should I cut or not.' I stayed out for 12 days - it wasn't idle, but knowing that 'any entry during panic is just giving away money.' It wasn't until BTC tested the critical support at 40,000 (corresponding to the lower edge of the previous shock platform, with volume stabilizing) that I entered with the main position. You see, waiting these 12 days earned much more than blindly operating every day.
The market never lacks opportunities; what's lacking is 'patience to wait for opportunities.' Beginners always feel that 'if they miss today, it's gone,' but there will be new support levels next week and new cycles next month. What’s the rush?
Third: Three-stage position - lock risks in their infancy.
I now divide my money into 6:3:1, with clear roles for each part. This is also the core of my ability to earn steadily.
60% main position: Only deal with mainstream assets like BTC and ETH, and only engage in trends that 'follow the trend' (for example, enter when the trend is up and it pulls back to support). This part seeks stability and serves as the 'ballast' of the account.
30% light position: Try new tracks (for example, a certain ecosystem that is hot this year), but never be greedy, stop-loss if wrong, and do not add if right to avoid large fluctuations in new tracks that can wipe out the principal.
10% liquidity position: specifically for dealing with emergencies, like last time when ETH suddenly dropped 5%. I used this part to average down a bit, and as a result, I sold at a 3% rebound - both averaging down a bit of cost and not taking big risks.
Many people have chaotic positions, either going all in on one or casually averaging down, and when it drops, they blow up. If you manage your positions well, it's like installing an 'airbag' in the account; no matter how great the volatility, the principal won't be shattered.
To be honest, what this circle earns is not 'quick money,' but 'stable money.' I understood this after blowing my account three times: beginners compete on 'whether they dare to rush,' while veterans compete on 'whether they can wait.' Now that the market is highly volatile, remember: don't be led by the market; if you can control your hands, the account can control the returns.
I walked a crooked path for three years in the dark, and I fell into more pitfalls than beginners have eaten meals. Next, I will break down 'how to judge key support levels' and 'how macro news affects the market,' and I will also adjust the position more realistically. Follow me, you don't have to blow your account three times to understand these; following me will steadily secure market funds, which is better than anything else.
