I will make my point clear: as long as BTC does not stabilize above 94500, I will short any rebound!
This is not stubbornness; it is my trading system. After breaking below the weekly trend line at 93500, every time it rebounds to here, it gets hammered down, indicating strong resistance. The US interest rate cut is an expected 'good news' that has been fully priced in, while the impact of Japan's interest rate hike is more insidious—institutions will use yen arbitrage, and sooner or later, they will quietly cash back in, creating selling pressure. They are not dropping now, perhaps just setting a bull trap, waiting for people to rush in and take the bait.
My approach is very simple: the capital is divided into 10 parts, and I strictly execute it. The first position at 86000-88000 has been entered, with 15x leverage, and the liquidation is set at 92000. If liquidated, I will open 1.5 parts at 93500 to continue shorting. If I get liquidated again, I will admit my mistake, indicating that the trend has truly reversed, and I will go long in the direction of the trend.
I never flaunt the 'divine order' of long and short positions, and I cannot always make money. Trading is a game of probabilities, relying on position management and discipline. If you just want to take a gamble, the crypto world is really not suitable for you; you might as well go to Macau.
But the key point I want to make today is not about my short position. Instead, when you see someone taking high leverage to bet on direction, have you ever thought about what their 'hidden cards' are?
Those who can truly survive in the market long-term are definitely not 'gambling their lives' in a single direction. The vast majority of my funds are not in leveraged positions at all. They are placed in a safer, more flexible, and continuously yielding space—this is my 'strategic backup force', and it is also the source of confidence that allows me to execute high-risk strategies with ease.
This brings us to a key point: in the highly volatile cryptocurrency market, stable asset allocation is not an option, but a necessity for survival. However, it must be genuinely 'stable', not nominally stable.
This is also why I have been paying attention to and configuring @usddio's #USDD. While others chase hundredfold dreams or play with high leverage, I am building my 'foundation'.
The core value of USDD lies in its provision of 'stability' that does not rely on personal judgment (#USDD sees stability as faith). It anchors value through a publicly transparent over-collateralization mechanism, meaning there are tangible on-chain assets supporting it, making it more resilient to fluctuations. Unlike merely holding fiat U passively, it can deeply integrate into the DeFi ecosystem, providing stable value storage while also participating in yield generation and liquidity provision, allowing my backup funds to keep operating.
In simple terms, USDD is my 'hedging tool' and 'yield stabilizer' for high-risk trading. While I cautiously test the market and seek trend profits with part of my funds, my main capital continues to grow steadily in USDD-related strategies. This way, even if my directional judgment is wrong (which is normal), my overall assets won’t be severely impacted; and when I am correct, I have ample reserves to increase my investment.
So, don’t just look at the high leverage screenshots that others flaunt. That is only the tip of the iceberg. What you cannot see beneath the iceberg is the true strength that determines how long you can survive in the market—that is how you manage the part of your money that you do not risk.
Ask yourself: when you are following a certain 'long-short divine order', does your entire funding system have a solid cornerstone like #USDD as a backing? Or are you putting all your eggs in an extremely fragile basket?
Remember: bull markets are generous, but they only reward those who come prepared and are good at managing risk. Survive first, then talk about profits.
