How to relieve worries? Only by unlocking positions.


Being trapped in a position is not scary; what's scary is the wrong way to handle it.
1. Shallow trap (small loss)
If the market is oscillating, wait for the price to bounce back near your cost, sell a portion first. Don't try to recover all at once; first reduce the risk. If it's confirmed as a one-sided decline, then be decisive: take a small loss and exit. Dragging it out will only turn a shallow trap into a deep one.
2. Deep trap (larger loss)
First step, cut half of your position to protect principal. Remember: adding more as price drops is the easiest way to get liquidated. After the market stops making new lows and starts to stabilize, use small positions to trade high and low, gradually offset the original losses with profits to lower your cost. If the trend continues to weaken, don't force it; accept the loss, clear the position, and keep your bullets and wait for (ka chi).
3. Locked positions (both long and short)
First see which side has lost more, prioritize closing the side with the larger loss. Don't bleed from both ends. After unlocking, don't randomly lock positions again. Follow the current trend, open new positions with light size, and use the profits from new positions to fill the hole of old ones.
4. Iron rules that must be strictly followed
Don't stubbornly hold, don't be greedy with position size. Use at most one-third of your usual position size. Always set a stop loss. Exit when the price hits the stop. Don't gamble on luck. One sentence summary: Survive first, then talk about turning things around.
The market is always there; if you lose your principal, you lose your opportunities.$BTC $ETH #gStocks代币化股票上线
