What Is Maximum Drawdown? Why Can an Account Still Face Huge Risks After Making a Lot of Money?
In cryptocurrency trading, looking only at how much an account ultimately earned can easily obscure how much risk it faced along the way. Even an account that once generated very high returns may have experienced a severe drawdown and could even struggle to recover due to poor fund management. Maximum drawdown is an important metric for measuring this risk.
First, what is maximum drawdown?
Maximum drawdown is the largest percentage decline in an account’s net value from a peak to a subsequent low du

USDJPY | Bearish Momentum Builds Below Key Resistance; Watch Support Rebound
The USD/JPY pair is currently exhibiting a short-term bearish posture on the intraday charts, following a downward shift from recent highs. After rejecting the 158.429 level, the price has faced sustained selling pressure, dipping to a low near 157.784 before finding temporary footing.
On the technical front, moving averages are tilting toward a bearish alignment. The price is currently being pressured below the short-term weighted moving averages (WMA5 at 157.963 and WMA10 at 157.942), indicating that intr

11.4 ETH Long Trade Review | Accurate Read, Profits Beyond Targets
Yesterday morning, I clearly laid out the plan: ETH’s pullback after a surge was a short-term correction, while the broader bullish structure remained intact. I went long directly at the 2240 lower Bollinger Band support, with a stop-loss at 2210 and targets at 2275, 2305, and 2330.
The intraday market followed the script exactly: the price dipped to around 2225, precisely testing the confluence support zone formed by the lower Bollinger Band and the previous trading range. It then began a one-way rally, hitting all three take-

Navigating the NFP Storm: The Good News is Bad News Paradox
The recent ADP employment report surprised to the upside, adding 86,000 jobs in October. While this highlights economic resilience, the upcoming official Nonfarm Payrolls release is creating a complex setup for risk assets.
Let us break down the questions every trader is asking right now.
Is better data always more bullish, or is a moderate cooling better for the market? It is rarely that simple. We are currently in a macroeconomic environment where good news is bad news for risk assets. Stronger-than-expected data

Don’t wait for the wind to change. Trade within a range and lower your cost in stages, gradually easing the pressure on your position by sticking to rules.
Many people get stuck on the need to break even, always hoping to escape in one big rebound. The longer they hold on, the more passive they become. The key to getting out is to turn static holdings into dynamic positions, repeatedly trading around support and resistance to reduce your cost—not betting on a one-way move.
The market doesn’t owe you a rebound; all you can rely on is a response plan you can control.
Going forward, as always: se

I called a long on ETH at 2228 on the 30th; it’s now at 2426U, up nearly 200 points.
Back then, it had just been dumped to 2178, falling even harder than BTC, and the whole screen was full of people cursing ETH for being useless.
This past week, it hit resistance below 2300 three times—2309, 2300, and 2301—and each time it was just a little short, only to get pushed back down. Quite a few guys couldn’t hold on and got out near their entry price.
This time it finally broke through. The first target at 2350 was hit, so I took half off and pocketed the gains. The rest topped out at 2443, just 7 p

What is a trend-following strategy? Why can it perform well in strong trends but suffer repeated losses in choppy markets?
In cryptocurrency trading, trend following is a common trading approach: instead of trying to accurately predict tops and bottoms, traders look for entry opportunities after a trend forms and try to follow it for as long as possible. But this strategy is not suited to every market environment.
First, what is a trend-following strategy?
A trend-following strategy identifies market direction using price structure, moving averages, or trend indicators, seeking long opportunit

🔥 DEFI IS MAKING A COMEBACK — AND THIS TIME, FUNDAMENTALS ARE LEADING THE WAY!
Something interesting is happening beneath the surface of the crypto market.
Revenue-generating DeFi projects are starting to outperform the broader market. Since the beginning of 2026, a basket of 17 major DeFi tokens, including $HYPE , $LIT , $AERO, $AAVE , and $ENA , has reportedly outperformed Bitcoin by more than 2x.
That's a signal worth paying attention to.
The market appears to be shifting its focus. Instead of rewarding every trending narrative, investors are increasingly looking at projects that generate actu

Markets change by the hour, and prices rise and fall. Staying steady through volatility has never depended on luck, but on accurately gauging market rhythm and maintaining consistent execution discipline.

What Is Overfitting? Why Can More Finely Tuned Parameters Make a Strategy More Fragile?
In cryptocurrency trading, some strategies show increasingly high historical returns and increasingly attractive backtest curves after repeated parameter adjustments. However, once they enter live markets, their performance can quickly deteriorate. A common reason behind this is overfitting.
First, what is overfitting?
Overfitting occurs when a strategy adapts too closely to specific fluctuations and chance patterns in historical data, leading it to perform well in the past but lack the ability to adapt to

Hold the BTC long position. A high-volume reversal from the lows and bullish EMA alignment are in place. As long as a pullback holds above 79800, the move can continue; only look for acceleration if it breaks the previous high of 81971.
Market: A strong bullish candle surged from 75736; currently at 80634 (+3.26% intraday), above EMA7 (79804)/EMA20/EMA60. The 4H bullish structure is confirmed, and sideways action on lower volume indicates consolidation before another push.
Key levels:

What Is Out-of-Sample Testing? Why Can Data Not Used to Optimize a Strategy Better Test Its True Capabilities?
In cryptocurrency trading, a strategy may perform well in historical backtests but quickly fail in new market conditions. The problem may not lie in the trading logic itself; the strategy may instead be overfit to the historical data used for optimization. Out-of-sample testing is an important method for identifying this problem.
First, what is out-of-sample testing?
Out-of-sample testing means independently evaluating a strategy using data that was not used in its development or para

Gate has officially launched Proof of Security, or PoSEC, extending beyond Proof of Reserves by disclosing the distribution of cold-storage and hot-wallet assets and introducing a cold storage coverage ratio to measure protection under extreme-risk scenarios. Gate’s latest cold storage coverage ratio stands at 104.58%, with 88.26% of assets in cold storage and 11.74% in hot wallets. A coverage ratio of at least 100% means cold-storage assets alone would still be sufficient to cover all user assets even if hot-wallet assets were fully lost. Exchange security is not only about whether reserves are sufficient, but also how assets are stored and protected under extreme conditions. Could cold storage coverage become a new industry standard?[👉 Learn more](https://gate.com/proof-of-security)
