【Going light is the conviction forged by getting blown up】



· People who dare to go heavy are everywhere
· People who dare to keep their position light—those are the ones with real stories

I used to be aggressive too: 10,000 U principal, using 8,000 to open with 20x leverage. The direction was right—then a pullback, and it blew me up.

From then on, the rule: single-trade position size ≤ 20%

Heavy = low fault tolerance. If the market moves against you by 5%, you’re out.
Light = leave yourself a way to stay in the game. If you’re wrong, it’s a small loss—if you’re right, you add.

Those who YOLO it with full capital aren’t really bold; they just haven’t been blown up enough.
The ones who last aren’t the ones who make the most—they’re the ones who are best at keeping a way out. $BTC $ETH
