Lan Ge on Getting Out of a Losing Position: Most People Are Trapped by Their Mindset, Not the Market

A lot of people come to me. The moment a position goes deep underwater, they panic. The first thing they ask is: Lan Ge, when will I break even?

Let me be frank: getting out of a losing position has never been about waiting for the market to surge and hand you money. It’s about turning a passive position into an active plan yourself.

I’ve seen far too many people fall into the same two traps after getting stuck:
Either fear takes over, and they painfully cut their position at the bottom—only

Instead of relying on a single offshore structure or grey-area operations, the platform is building localized, licensed entities across key financial jurisdictions. This is not just checkbox compliance — it is becoming a core competitive moat as the industry moves into a more regulated phase.

CPI's bearish impact continues to unfold, and the broader bearish structure remains unchanged. The current move is only a weak recovery from oversold conditions; resistance after the rebound leaves room for further downside. Focus on shorting rallies, with support-based short-term longs as a secondary strategy.

What Is Monte Carlo Simulation? How Can Randomly Reordering Trade Results Help Assess the Risk of Consecutive Losses and Drawdowns?

In cryptocurrency trading, even if a strategy has been backtested and achieved positive returns, that does not mean future loss sequences and equity curves will be exactly the same as they were historically. Monte Carlo simulation repeatedly samples or reorders historical trade results to generate a large number of possible trading paths, helping traders understand the risks a strategy may face under different combinations of outcomes.

First, what is Monte Carlo

Bid farewell to October’s volatility and welcome a new trading cycle in November.

Market news may be noisy and chaotic, but ultimately, the trend itself determines the direction.
Often, losses don’t come from failing to understand market conditions, but from being unable to withstand market volatility and rushing into trades.

In the end, trading tests your mindset and discipline: follow the trend, keep positions light, and manage downside risk.

In the new month, don’t chase market moves or trade aggressively. Patiently wait for opportunities you understand.
Trading is a journey of self-cult

$SOXL Yesterday, I told everyone to confidently go long! Now let’s see if it’s bottomed out. It’s not that I’m not bullish—it’s that I have to go long on it! I still think 80 is achievable! It just needs a longer timeframe!

Why does Bitcoin's decline drag down the entire crypto market?
Many investors have the same question: Why do Ethereum, SOL, and many altcoins often fall along with Bitcoin when it declines, sometimes dropping far more than Bitcoin?
There are four main reasons behind this.
First, Bitcoin is the crypto market's core asset. It has the largest market capitalization and significant institutional participation, and is an important gauge of market risk appetite. When Bitcoin falls steadily, investors typically reduce their exposure to risk across their entire crypto portfolio.
Second, market liquidit

Day 408 | Episode 408: Calling it a missed opportunity at $80,000, playing dead at $73,000 ⏳

It’s Singles’ Day today, and Bitcoin is on sale too!

6 days ago, when #BTC surged to $80,300, everyone on the timeline was kicking themselves and crying that they’d missed the run.

They swore: “If it could drop back to $73,000, I’d go all-in and buy the dip.” Well, early this morning it dropped to $73,433.

The discount coupon was practically at their lips, but those people who’d been calling for a dip-buy couldn’t even bring themselves to open their apps. All they’re asking now is: Is it going

Historical data shows that #Bitcoin has experienced significant corrections after US midterm elections.
In 2014, $BTC experienced its deepest drop of approximately 46.7% in 71 days; in 2018, it recorded a drop of about 50.6% in just 39 days. These two cases demonstrate the risk of prolonged and significant post-election corrections.
However, the events of 2022 offer a different perspective. #Bitcoin fell by about 14.9% on the first day after the election, but then recovered strongly, ending the 100-day period with a gain of approximately 28% compared to the closing price on election day.

MSTR is highly likely to be removed from MSCI tomorrow, creating $1.6 billion in passive selling pressure! But Saylor has $4.7 billion in cash—will he really be forced to sell BTC?
After hotter-than-expected CPI and Anthropic’s shock to tech stocks, Bitcoin faces another risk event: MSCI will announce its November index rebalancing results tomorrow, with $MSTR highly likely to be removed.
Strategy disclosed that funds tracking the MSCI Global Investable Market Index hold about 13 million MSTR shares, or roughly 3.1% of its free float.
At the recent share price of $121, that is worth about $1.

What Is Trading System Backtesting? How Can You Use Historical Data to Test a Strategy Instead of Judging Its Effectiveness by Feel?

In cryptocurrency trading, a strategy that seems logical does not necessarily mean it can actually make a profit. Trading system backtesting applies clear trading rules to historical market data to simulate past trades and assess a strategy’s returns, risks, and stability.

First, what should you define before backtesting?

Start by defining the trading instrument, timeframe, entry conditions, stop-loss and take-profit rules, position size, and exit conditions.
