On a cold winter night in 2022, I experienced a profound turning point in my life. As I looked at my phone screen with only 10% battery left, despair filled my heart. After three sleepless nights, my principal of over 8 million had vanished, and the bright red 'Get Liquidated Notification' on my account page felt like a burning iron, making my fingers tremble uncontrollably. This was my sixth time encountering liquidation. During the first five times when I lost my savings, I could still comfort myself with 'I'll fight again next time,' but this time, even the emergency funds raised by my parents were wasted. Standing on the balcony overlooking the streetlights below, I felt for the first time the immense pressure that the term 'Cryptocurrency Trading' could bring.



Looking back at that period, I was lying in a rented room, constantly flipping through trading records. It wasn't until my fingers went numb that I suddenly realized: I had been focused on 'insider trading' and 'speculating on market trends', but neglected the most basic survival skill—how to maintain stability amidst market fluctuations. In fact, 90% of the massive profits in the cryptocurrency market often stem from two extreme emotions: 'extreme panic' and 'extreme greed'. The former provides us with the opportunity to seize chances when others are panic selling, while the latter is a trap caused by one's own greed.

After six months of deep reflection, I have broken down my past mistakes into details and recombined them into a set of operational strategies that can both 'ensure survival' and 'generate profits'. The valuable experiences shared below are all earned with real money, and every step has been rigorously verified, with no exaggeration.

First, it is crucial to understand the core principle of 'not getting liquidated'. I have summarized five key steps to minimize risk:

1. Allocate funds reasonably, avoiding putting all funds into a single position.
2. Set stop-loss levels to protect capital from being completely lost.
3. Diversify your investments, don't put all your eggs in one basket.
4. Stay calm and do not let short-term market fluctuations affect your judgment.
5. Continuously learn to improve your market analysis skills.

In the cryptocurrency market, the importance of 'survival' far exceeds 'quick profits'. Only by ensuring that you can survive in the market for the long term is it possible to seize real opportunities and achieve sustainable profits. Through these lessons, I gradually realized that successful trading not only requires skills but also the right mindset and strict risk management.
