1. Starting: 'snail-style' building of position with 2300U
When I entered the circle, I was holding 2300U, which is equivalent to many people's monthly salary. At that time, the group was full of 'hundred times contract quick success classes', and some people shared screenshots of making 100,000 in one night, but then immediately faced liquidation. I was timid and didn’t dare to follow—going all in leads to zero, that’s math, not mysticism.
I divided the money into 5 parts, each part 460U, specifically targeting established coins like BTC and ETH. The strategy is simple: buy small on big dips, sell small on big rallies. For example, if Bitcoin drops by 5%, I buy a portion, and if it rises by 10%, I sell half. I made 480U in the first week, not because I made accurate judgments, but because I dared to buy when others were panicking and was willing to sell when others were being irrational.
2. Core: Diversification is a lifesaver, not a multiple-choice question.
I have seen too many people go all in and gamble on direction, losing and then borrowing to recover, ultimately crashing. My iron rule is: never go all in, and never leave 'desperate cards.'
Each opening position should not exceed 20% of total funds, even if it feels 'bound to rise';
Set stop-profit and stop-loss scripts in advance to avoid emotional interference (cut positions at a drop of 8%, gradually withdraw capital at a profit of 30%);
When the market is volatile, I'd rather remain in cash and watch than touch fluctuations I don't understand.
This tactic helped me avoid three liquidation waves. Last December, Bitcoin fell 7% in one day, screenshots of liquidations flooded the group, but because of diversification and stop-loss, I only gave back 3% of my profits.
3. Mindset: Treat trading like brick-moving, not like buying a lottery ticket;
The most deceptive saying in the crypto world is 'get rich overnight.' Those who truly make money are long-term thinkers:
Reject FOMO: When others shout 'the bull is here,' I first check on-chain data and large holder positions, never chase highs;
Beware of 'teachers leading trades': those who show profit charts are mostly fake trades or commission scams; real earners have no time for community management.
Invest with spare money: play with money you can afford to lose, and your mindset stays stable. I never use leverage or borrow, and the safety of the principal always comes first.
4. My clumsy tools: scripts + mainstream coins
After 50,000 USDT, I completely 'mechanized':
Only trade BTC/ETH; I won't touch altcoins no matter how popular (the probability of air coins going to zero exceeds 90%);
Use scripts for grid trading, buy when it drops 2%, sell when it rises 3%, earning small profits from fluctuations;
Only check the market twice a day, refusing to stay up late watching K-lines—if my health deteriorates, no matter how much I earn, it's still a loss.
Some laugh at my low efficiency, but surviving in the crypto world relies not on earning more but on losing less. After three years, my annualized return stabilizes at 40%, while 90% of leveraged gamblers from the same period have exited.
The crypto world is a magnifying glass of human nature: greedy people die on leverage, and fearful people miss opportunities. My 'tortoise strategy' seems clumsy but verifies the simplest truth: stability is speed.
If you just entered the market, remember one thing: the market never lacks opportunities; what it lacks is the capital to survive until the next bull market. Managing your own hands well is more important than anything.
