8 Years in the Crypto Circle: From Liquidation to an Annualized 70%, My Survival and Profit Manual
In the crypto circle for 8 years, I've been liquidated 3 times, and almost smashed my computer while staring at the screen until 4 AM.
Now, I can steadily earn over 70% annually, and the most profound lesson is this: survive first, then talk about making money. Today is not about giving signals; it's about sharing the trading insights I've honed with real money, for my brothers who are still exploring.
1. Cash in profits, don't wait for 'a bit more increase'.
I have a strict habit: for every additional 1000U in my account, I immediately transfer 400U to my bank card. The floating profit in K-lines is just a number; the bank notification is real. In my early years, I fell for 'let's earn a bit more' and ended up losing a 20,000U profit to a negative.
2. Trust indicators, not feelings.
I only focus on three indicators in TradingView: MACD, RSI, and Bollinger Bands; I only enter the market if at least two indicators align. For example, when trading ETH short term, I wait for two K-lines on the 1-hour chart to stay above the middle Bollinger Band, with MACD showing a golden cross, before I dare to take action; I never place orders based on 'feeling it will rise'.
3. Stop-loss is a lifesaver.
If you can monitor the market, dynamically adjust stop-loss to protect profits; when busy, set a hard stop-loss at -3%. In the first two years, I once forgot to set a stop-loss, and during a waterfall drop in ETH, I lost 30,000U in one go; since then, I never dare to be careless again.
4. Fixed weekly withdrawals.
Every Friday at 3 PM, regardless of market conditions, I consistently withdraw 30% of profits. After doing this for three months, my account curve stabilized, and I never experienced the cycle of 'earning and losing it all' again.
5. The red line must not be crossed.
Leverage should be a maximum of 10 times; for beginners, I only recommend 3-5 times; do not exceed 3 trades a day, frequent orders will lead to chaos; don't touch meme coins like Dogecoin; they're all traps for retail investors; and definitely don't borrow money to trade, that leads you to a dead end.
Trading is a profession, not a gamble; when it’s time to rest, close the software and spend time with family.
I used to wander in the dark alone, but now the light is in my hands.
The light is always on; will you follow? @不贪的阿 K
