Dare to trade. Dare to win.
In the rapidly changing Crypto Assets market, relying solely on strong technology is far from enough to achieve long-term stable profits. Years of market ups and downs have made me deeply realize that an effective set of survival rules is equally indispensable.
The vast majority of traders who encounter liquidation often fall into the trap of excessively pursuing short-term profits. I have witnessed many newcomers achieving decent returns in the early stages of their entry, only to suffer severe losses in their accounts a year later. This is not because they lack understanding of technical analysis or market sentiment, but rather because the obsession with 'ten times in three months' blinded their rationality, leading to a loss of control over position management. In fact, 90% of liquidation cases stem from an 'impatience for quick success' mentality, while those seasoned traders who can survive in the market long-term have internalized the concept of 'rolling profits' as an instinctive response.
The crypto market is like a war without gunpowder; over the past decade, I have witnessed countless people fail due to greed, as well as a few who have navigated the bull and bear markets with strict discipline. From an initial capital of tens of thousands to now having assets worth millions, what has supported me throughout this journey is not luck, but a deep-rooted set of survival principles.
In this challenging market, capital management strategies are particularly crucial. I have adopted a quadrant method to build a capital defense system:
First, allocate 40% of the funds as the 'main force', firmly holding Bitcoin and Ethereum. Regardless of market fluctuations, this portion of the position will remain stable, providing a solid foundation for the overall investment portfolio.
Secondly, 30% of the funds will be allocated as a 'vanguard' to potential projects with real application scenarios. From early smart contract platforms to the recently popular Layer2 solutions, this portion of the investment aims to achieve excess returns.
Furthermore, 20% of the funds are held in cash as a "reserve team" on standby. When the market experiences a significant pullback, this portion of the funds will become a powerful weapon for bottom-fishing.
Finally, the remaining 10% of the funds will be used as 'scouts' for flexible allocation and exploration of new investment opportunities.
By this decentralized and targeted capital allocation strategy, it is possible not only to effectively manage risks but also to seize potential profit opportunities at different stages of the market.
