#美国ADP就业数据表现超出市场预期 There is a brutal truth in Crypto Assets trading: most people do not fail due to market judgment, but rather stumble in Position management.



The zeroing act is performed every day —
Someone went All in on a small coin late at night, and with one jab, the account was cleared.
Some people hold onto a 30% Position during a bull market while watching others profit, and when a bear market comes, they go all in to buy the dip, only to end up with no bullets left to turn things around.

Identifying the right direction is just the first step; the real skill lies in whether you can manage your own Position.
This market never talks about "guaranteed wins", but "survival" is always the hard currency.

Want to keep up during the bull and bear market transitions? Remember these three survival rules:

**First, the principal is the lifeblood.**
The loss of a single transaction must be kept within 2%-4% of the principal. Taking 100,000 as an example, if the loss exceeds 4,000 in one go, you must stop and preserve the principal to have a chance to start over.

**Second, don't rigidly apply stock market strategies.**
The annualized volatility of the crypto market is 2 to 3 times that of the stock market, and positions need to be at least 30% more conservative than stock trading. Using traditional thinking to operate is like running naked into a storm.

**Third, adjust dynamically with the cycle.**
In a bull market, you can hold a Position of 50%-70%, while in a bear market, you must reduce it to below 30% and hold more cash. Mainstream coins, altcoins, and leverage should be planned separately, don't mix them.

Five practical tips to directly improve your survival rate:

**1. Build positions in segments, don't go all in**
Divide the principal into three parts: 10% for testing the waters, 20% to follow once the trend is clear, and the remaining 20% reserved as emergency funds.

**2. Allocate weights to coins based on risk**
Mainstream coins like BTC and ETH can be allocated up to 25%, while individual altcoins should not exceed 5%. Leveraged capital should be controlled within 10 times.

**3. Stop Loss Backward Position Size**
First, set the stop-loss margin (for example, 6%), then use "maximum acceptable loss ÷ stop-loss margin" to calculate how much position to open, and remember to leave a buffer to prevent being stopped out.

**4. Different strategies for different cycles**
In a bear market, control the position at 5%-8%; in the early stage of a bull market, increase it to 50%-70%; and at the end of a bull market, reduce it back to over 30% to hold cash.

**5. Eliminate Emotional Trading**
Write down the plan before taking action: where is the entry point, where is the stop-loss point, and what size Position to open, don't exceed 20% on a single coin Position. If you lose three times in a row, stop and review, don't force it.

This market is never short of opportunities.
What is missing is whether you still have principal in your account when the opportunity hits you.

Most people are trapped in a loop, not because they don't work hard enough, but because they haven't established a trading system that allows them to survive.

All the principal has been lost, and these suggestions are really heartbreaking to see now.
