Why do some people make 100x and still not get liquidated in half a year?


Some open 5x and are gone in three days.
Many think that liquidation is just bad luck.
Actually, it's not. Liquidation is already doomed the moment you place the order.
Follow Brother Xing and you'll never get liquidated.
Brother Xing has been in the crypto circle for 9 years, and only later did he understand that what truly determines whether you can survive is not leverage, but how much money you bet with.

Is 100x scary?
Not scary.
You put in 10k USDT, and only use 1,000 USDT to try; even if you're wrong about the direction, you only lose 1,000 USDT.
But if you use 9,000 USDT to open a 10x position, one needle can wipe you out instantly.

So the most dangerous thing about contracts is never high leverage.
It's high leverage combined with heavy position sizes and no stop-loss.
Many people lose 5% and don’t exit, thinking "It’ll come back if I wait a bit."
But waiting turns small losses into big losses, and big losses into liquidation.
I now set a rule for myself: the maximum loss per trade is 10% of the total funds.
If I’m wrong, I admit it; if I admit it, I can still continue trading.
If I don’t admit it, next time you won’t even qualify to get back in.

I also keep my take-profit steady.
20% profit, take half; 50% profit, take half again; the remaining position is moved to a trailing stop, letting profits run.
Because those who buy are apprentices, those who sell are the masters.
Brother Xing always says, in trading, in the end, it’s not about who has the biggest guts.
It’s whether you can follow the rules like a machine.
The crypto world is never short of opportunities.
What’s scarce is the people who can survive to the next round.
As long as you’re alive and holding USDT, there are endless opportunities.
