Honestly, after more than ten years in the crypto world, what bothers me the most isn't getting liquidated, but earning money and not being able to withdraw it.


I've seen too many people whose accounts multiplied several times or even dozens of times, sending screenshots everywhere, walking with confidence. But when it comes to withdrawing, their cards get frozen, they panic, and their funds are stuck on the exchange, leaving them anxious. That feeling is even worse than a liquidation.
A few years ago, a brother of mine grew his account from a few thousand USD to over 400,000 USD, and he was ecstatic, sending me screenshots, saying he was finally going to cash out. But the next morning, his card was frozen, and he was asked to explain the source of funds at the police station. During those days, he couldn't even eat properly. Although he eventually got his money back, he lost a whole month of effort and became much thinner.
Nowadays, bank risk control is more sensitive than the crypto market. As soon as the system detects "abnormal fund flows," it can lock the card within minutes. I’ve been frozen myself, and only then did I realize a truth: earning money is for apprentices, but being able to withdraw it is for masters.
Later, I developed a simple but reliable withdrawal method. It’s not a trick; it’s lessons learned the hard way.
First, don’t be greedy. Don’t try to withdraw everything at once. I do it in three or four rounds, each time no more than 30% of the profit, using different cards. It’s slower, but safer. Making money in crypto is about risking everything; withdrawing funds requires a proper rhythm.
Second, create a “fake salary flow.” I transfer funds once a week, keeping each transfer under 50,000 USD, with regular timing and amounts. Over time, the bank system automatically recognizes this as “normal income.” During those years, I withdrew over a million USD without triggering any risk control.
Third, use a dedicated withdrawal card. Don’t use your main card for receiving funds—that’s pushing yourself into a trap. I specifically got a card that only handles crypto funds. The money first lands on this card, then gradually flows to my regular spending card. Once, that dedicated card was frozen, but the money I use daily was unaffected, and I stayed calm.
Over these years, I’ve seen too many brothers get excited when earning, like celebrating the New Year, but panic when withdrawing, as if risking their lives. In reality, true experts aren’t the ones earning the most—they’re the ones who can safely and steadily withdraw their funds.
Making money depends on skill; withdrawing money depends on methods. Protecting your funds is the real skill. I’ve already lit the lamp; whether you follow or not, that’s up to you.

What is the number one, most fundamental survival rule in short-term trading? There are always people who refuse to accept it, believing that their skills allow them to seize opportunities in weak markets and accurately find entry points at lows. But I can responsibly say that no matter how strong your short-term skills are, if you can't adhere to this principle, you will eventually suffer losses.

Many people ask, where should I start learning good technical skills? Technical analysis is divided into internal skills and external skills! There are four foundational books for internal skills and four series of books for external skills. When I first finished reading these 4 internal books and 4 external series, I was completely enlightened. They overturned my bad habit of trading based on intuition and helped me build a complete trading framework. I still review them regularly, and each time I gain new insights.
