#比特币流动性 The phone kept vibrating nonstop in the early morning. The caller was a trader who had been messing around in the crypto circle for two years.
"I got liquidated... I went all-in with 10,000 USDT short, and after a 3% pullback, I was wiped out."
His voice was full of despair. I paused for a moment—not out of surprise, but because stories like this are all too common. Eight years ago, I did the same stupid thing.
Back then, I also believed that "full position is faith," thinking that going all-in was the true way to invest. And what happened? A small wave of fluctuation wiped out my position, and my confidence shattered.
I asked him to send over his trading records. When I looked: he entered with 9,500 USDT full position, without even setting a stop-loss. That’s a classic case of "dying from courage."
Many people think that only by going all-in can they make big money. Wrong. That’s actually the fastest way to get out of the market. Going all-in is like putting a knife to your own neck—if the market moves against you, it will force you out, and you won’t even have time to react.
I told him: You didn’t lose because of market judgment, but because of position management.
Here’s an example:
If you have 1,000 USDT and use 900 USDT with 10x leverage, a 5% drop in price will wipe out your account. But if you only use 100 USDT with 10x leverage, the market would have to drop 50% before liquidation. Same principal, same leverage multiple, what’s the difference? It’s in the "survival space."
Over the past eight years, the market has repeatedly taught me lessons and helped me summarize some ironclad rules for survival:
**Single trade capital no more than 20% of total funds** — a stop-loss is just a minor scratch, far from injuring your bones
**Maximum loss per trade 3%** — even if you’re right about the direction, don’t bet your life
**During market oscillations, prefer to stay in cash** — money can always be earned, but you only have one account
Using this approach, I survived three major liquidation waves. I never got wiped out once, and instead, my initial 70,000 USDT grew all the way to nearly 400,000.
Later, that trader restructured his positions based on this mindset. After three months, he sent a message: "My account doubled. I finally understand what stable profits mean."
This is the key difference:
People who get liquidated are always waiting for a miracle; those who survive are already enjoying compound interest.
You can’t control the market trends, but you have the power over your position allocation. To earn more, the prerequisite is to first learn how to lose without being fatal. Don’t think about getting rich overnight every day—first, make sure you won’t be wiped out overnight.
I’ve tested this steady and reliable methodology for eight years, and the results are clear—zero liquidations, continuous profits. Market rhythms are always there; opportunities never lack. But whether you can seize them depends on whether you’re still alive.
