After seven liquidation events, I finally learned how to make money
The 400,000 in my account was rolled out from just a few thousand USDT. It wasn’t luck—after seven liquidations, I finally learned “recognition”
The core is three words: control, follow, roll
Control—how do you control your position?
Always stay fully allocated. Each time, only move 20% of your total funds. Cut loss on each trade at 2%-3%; once it hits, exit. At most two trades per day—then close the software. If your emotions run hot, you will definitely lose money
Follow—how do you judge the trend?
Don’t look at the K-lines below 1 hour; they’re all noise. Only trade coins with a bullish moving-average alignment, with the 20-day moving average above the 50-day. Wait for the price to pull back to the 20-day line, with volume shrinking and selling pressure stopping before you enter—chasing highs is like in the stock market
Roll—how do you roll your profits?
Add to your position only when floating profit exceeds 5%, and plug the loss gap when you’re down. Add positions using a pyramid structure, adding less and less each time. Take profit in batches: when it rises 5%, exit at the top; when it rises 8%, exit again at the top—then run the remaining position with stop-loss set to protect capital so your profits ride
Here’s an example of a real trade:
On a 4-hour timeframe, the moving averages are in a bullish alignment. The price retraces to the 20-day moving average, with volume shrinking and selling pressure stopping. Enter with the base position at 20%, stop loss at 2.5%. When floating profit reaches 5%, add 10%; when floating profit reaches 8%, reduce by one-third to lock in gains. Set the remaining position’s stop-loss to move up to the entry cost. This one netted a 12% return and “stayed locked” (套)
