Transforming the market into a 'probability game' with three tricks, the exchange has become my automatic ATM.
I entered the market in 2017 with 5000U, witnessing too many people around me go bankrupt overnight to the point of mortgaging their properties. However, using a set of contrarian methods, I managed to keep my account curve consistently inclined at 45°. Over five years, my principal drawdown never exceeded 8%. I don’t believe in insider information, nor do I obsess over K-line mysticism; I treat the market as a probability game. Today, I will break down and share these three tricks with you. Feel free to copy them, and in the next bull market, you too can have the exchange work for you.
First trick: Profits wear 'bulletproof vests', locking in gains through compound interest is key.
What does the market fear the most? It fears your greed! When making a profit, there’s always a desire to 'earn a little more,' resulting in a market reversal, profit retracement, and further losses. My method is simple: place stop-loss and take-profit orders as soon as I open a position, and when profits reach 10% of the principal, immediately withdraw 50% to a cold wallet, using the remaining 'free profits' to continue trading.
For example, with a principal of 10,000 USDT, when you earn 1,000 USDT, directly withdraw 500 USDT to store in a cold wallet, and continue operating with the remaining 500 USDT. If the market rises, you enjoy compounding; if it falls, you only give back half a unit of profit, while the principal remains intact. Over five years, I used this strategy to withdraw profit 37 times, with the highest weekly withdrawal exceeding 180,000 USDT, and I was even monitored by the exchange's customer service to verify if it was money laundering.
In simple terms: secure profits first, use the market's money to seize opportunities, and always prioritize the safety of the principal.
The second tip: build positions out of alignment, focusing specifically on liquidation points.
The market oscillates 80% of the time, but most people only know how to go long or short; a single spike can lead to liquidation. My strategy is to combine multiple timeframes with hedging trades.
Daily lines determine direction: observe whether the big trend is bullish or bearish.
Look for ranges in 4 hours: identify support and resistance levels.
Precision entry in 15 minutes: avoid spike traps.
Open two positions for the same cryptocurrency:
For the long position, break through and chase, with stop-loss set below the recent daily low.
Place limit orders to short, lurking in the 4-hour overbought zone.
Both stop-losses for my trades do not exceed 1.5% of the principal, and profit-taking is set above 5 times. Last year, during the LUNA crash, the price dipped 90% in 24 hours; I took profits on both long and short positions, resulting in a 42% increase in my account in a single day.
In simple terms: Don't confront the market head-on; hedge when it oscillates, and let profits run when it trends.
The third tip: stop-loss is the 'ticket,' small losses exchange for big opportunities.
Many people stubbornly hold onto their losses and end up liquidating. I treat stop-losses as 'entry tickets,' exchanging a small loss of 1.5% for the opportunity to sit at the table. My win rate is only 38%, but I achieve a profit-loss ratio of 4.8:1, with a mathematical expectation of 1.9%—equivalent to earning 1.9 for every 1 unit of risk taken.
Remember three details in practical operation:
Funds are divided into 10 parts, with a maximum of 1 part per trade, and total positions not exceeding 3 parts.
If I incur two consecutive losses, I shut down, work out, drink tea, and do not engage in revenge trades.
For every account doubling, withdraw 20% to buy US bonds or gold, allowing for a peaceful sleep even in a bear market.
The last point is a mindset reminder.
The market is not afraid of your mistakes, it is afraid that you won't be able to get up after a liquidation. My three tips may seem simple, but the core is to avoid human weaknesses: greed, fear, and luck. Before opening a position next time, ask yourself: Have I set a stop-loss? Have I locked in profits? Have I controlled my position? If the answer is yes, you have already outperformed 90% of people.
