Many people ask me how to maintain stable profits during this market cycle. Instead of claiming there are secret tricks, I would say it's about pushing risk control to the extreme. My comprehensive protection framework is divided into six dimensions, each corresponding to a potential explosion point of risk.



**Basic Defense Line**: Limit the maximum loss per trade to 1% of total funds—that's the bottom line. If daily losses reach 2%, I immediately shut down and take a break, leaving the trading room, because at that point, my mindset has already started to drift. If I experience more than 3 consecutive losses, I enforce a 24-hour trading ban, review all candlestick charts, and identify where my issues lie.

**Position Discipline**: I never allocate more than 30% of my holdings to a single coin, leverage stays within 3x, and the total position size never exceeds 60% of the funds. This may seem conservative, but it's actually to ensure longevity. In this market, survival comes first; getting rich quickly is a luxury.

**Profit Management**: If I earn more than $50 in a day, I withdraw 30% immediately. If weekly profits exceed $100, I take out 50%. If monthly profits surpass $200, I withdraw 70%. The benefit of this rhythm is that it allows the account to grow steadily without losing all previous gains due to retracements.

**Mindset Firewall**: If my heartbeat noticeably accelerates before trading, I pause for 5 minutes to clear my mind. Once the thought of "must recover losses" pops up, I close all positions immediately because I’ve already fallen into an emotional trap. Frequent monitoring of the market is also a signal; at such times, set conditional orders and leave the screen.

**Current Opportunity Scan**:

For BTC, just watch if it breaks above 89,000 and stabilizes for 24 hours. The key is not to break below 91,000 during a pullback. Weekly closing should stay above 90,000, and only consider entering if volume has been increasing for three consecutive days.

For ETH, the recent threshold is the 3,000 resistance level. After breaking through, it needs to stabilize at 3,200 for a week to be considered stable. The DeFi sector should also be moving in sync, with staking data continuously growing.

For SOL, the signals are clearer: all conditions must be met—break above the previous high of 135, the ecosystem projects rally, trading volume ranks in the top three, and the daily MACD shows a golden cross.

**Specific Trading Rhythm**: Start with a 20% position. If there’s a pullback, add another 10%. Once profits reach 20%, begin taking profits in batches. If the price drops 3% below the entry point, stop-loss and exit. This methodology isn’t complicated, but disciplined execution is the real test.

Well said, but how many can truly achieve it? The key point is still the same: only by staying alive can you make money.

That's right, but the hardest part is mindset. The rules that seem simple often break down when it comes to execution.

No matter how well you speak, self-discipline is essential. The key is that most people simply cannot stay away from the screen.

It sounds good, but how many people can actually follow through... The mindset is really the killer.

That's quite true, but how many people can truly stick to this discipline? Most of them have already lost their composure.
