#数字货币市场洞察 Why haven't I been liquidated after trading for ten years? You might not believe it, but it's all thanks to a few simple rules.



A lot of people stare at the screen until their eyes hurt, but I actually think there's no need to take heavy positions during the day. When rumors are flying everywhere, it's hard to tell what's true and what's not, and the chances of getting whipsawed are way too high. I usually only feel comfortable increasing my position after 9 PM, when the market is relatively clean and the direction is clearer.

If the setup doesn't look right, I'd rather do nothing. Even if I'm itching to trade, I force myself to hold back—browsing short videos is better than forcing a trade. I've seen too many people go all-in with bad hands, and without exception, they all end up losing everything.

What do I do after making a profit? Withdraw immediately.

Even if I only make a thousand or two, I have to transfer out a few hundred first. Money that isn't in your bank account isn't real money. I've seen too many cases where people go from tens of thousands in profits to a zero balance, simply because they couldn't bring themselves to cash out.

I've set up a dumb process for myself: before placing an order, I have to pass three checkpoints—check the trend with MACD, judge overbought/oversold with RSI, and confirm the volatility range with Bollinger Bands. Going through this routine filters out at least half of my impulsive trades.

When it comes to stop-losses, I'm never indecisive. When I'm watching the market, I raise the stop price bit by bit; if I'm stepping away, I just set a hard stop-loss and don't worry about overnight swings.

Every Friday I withdraw cash—this is my iron rule. No matter how much I make, I transfer out a sum and give myself real feedback: you're not playing with monopoly money, you're making actual profit.

There's a method to watching timeframes too. When the market is moving fast, I watch the 1-hour chart; during sideways movement, I switch to the 4-hour to find the bigger trend—way better than guessing blindly.

Finally, a few pitfalls: don't mess with leverage—3x is already tough for beginners; avoid emotional trades and pumps in sketchy altcoins; three trades max per day—the more excited you get, the more likely you'll crash.

In this business, it all comes down to who can stay steady and disciplined the longest. Money doesn't chase madmen; it sticks with those who can stick to the rules. These basic methods aren't flashy, but they really can keep you in the game.

It's really unbelievable to go ten years without being liquidated. Just looking at this set of rules reminds me of my own painful lessons last year. During the day, I really got hammered by news over and over again. Wait, I need to remember this idea of adding to positions at 9 PM. It's way more reliable than the random times I used to guess before.

Not getting liquidated for ten years, that's really something. But I still feel that 9 p.m. as an entry point is a bit superstitious. That being said, your stop-loss strategy is quite good. Many people end up selling at the bottom because they hesitate too much. I used to be like that too, but later I realized that taking timely stop-losses is actually a way to make money.

If you haven’t been liquidated in ten years, you’re a winner. Unlike me—I went all-in last year and lost so much I didn’t even have my pants left.

honestly tho, this is literally just proof-of-restraint applied to trading... like, you're basically running a smart contract on your own emotions lmao. the whole "don't FOMO, wait til 9pm" thing? that's just implementing a time-lock mechanism for your portfolio. genius tbh.

Not getting liquidated for ten years basically means knowing how to cut losses and withdraw funds; everything else is just talk.
