#密码资产动态追踪 $DEEP How exactly can full position trading avoid liquidation? Many beginners have the wrong idea—it's not simply about lowering leverage; the core issue is that the position itself is too aggressive.



For example, with a 1000U account: using 900U to open 10x leverage, a mere 5-point move in the opposite direction can wipe out the account. If only 100U is used to open the same leverage, it takes a 50-point move to trigger liquidation. The margin for error here is vastly different.

I know a guy who almost put all his capital into a position, and when the market slightly retraced, his account was wiped out instantly. In contrast, I personally have been using full position trading for over half a year, and not only have I avoided liquidation once, but I also doubled my capital. What's the difference? It all comes down to these three unbreakable rules:

**Rule 1: Never risk more than 20% of total funds on a single position**

For a 10,000U account, invest no more than 2,000U at a time. Even if the market moves against you, with a 10-point stop loss, you only lose 200U, which is hardly damaging to the principal. You can always adjust your strategy and start again.

**Rule 2: Never lose more than 3% of total capital on a single trade**

For example, using 2,000U to open 10x leverage, setting a stop loss at 1.5%, means a loss of only 300U, which is exactly 3% of the total funds. Even if you make several wrong calls in a row, it won't break you, leaving room for a comeback.

**Rule 3: Do not open new positions in choppy markets; do not add to profits**

Only trade breakouts of trends. When the market is sideways, even if it looks tempting, just watch—don't trade unnecessarily. After opening a position, regardless of whether the market rises or falls, keep your emotions in check. Do not add to your position; otherwise, the more you add, the more you get trapped.

In short, the true purpose of full position trading is to give yourself enough room for trial and error, not to be a gambler's chip.

A follower once kept getting liquidated every month, but by following these three rules, he turned 2,600U into 100,000U in just three months. Steady and cautious progress is the long-term way.

That's true, but there are very few who can really withstand it. I've seen too many arrogant brothers who jump in and can't come back.

Proportion is the key, don't be greedy --- It seems right, but when the market actually comes, I still want to go all in. That's human nature --- I always forget the rule of not opening positions during volatile markets. How many times have I been cut by sideways trading --- From 2,600 to 100,000, it's all about discipline. I need to take a screenshot to remind myself --- The 20% single trade red line, I’ve marked it for myself --- Adding to positions is a big trap. I’ve previously doubled down so much I doubted my life --- Tripling in three months is pretty intense. Is it real or just my buddy bragging --- The 3% stop-loss line, I’ve noted it down. It’s better than getting liquidated --- Not everyone can avoid adding to positions; it tests your willpower --- Easier said than done, executing it is super difficult

Bro, this set of theories sounds comfortable, but I still think the most critical point hasn't been explained clearly—mindset issues are the most deadly. --- Doubling is indeed impressive, but I've seen more cases of self-deception, thinking they can control risks, only to break down during a market wave. --- That fan's account grew from 2,600 to 100,000 in three months, which sounds a bit suspicious... depends on whether it's real trading or backtesting. --- Honestly, I agree with the 20% position limit, but it's really hard to stick to in practice, especially when the trend is obvious. --- The biggest fear of full position isn't liquidation, but the helpless feeling when the account starts to shrink. --- My experience is, setting the rules is easy; overcoming human greed is the real challenge. --- These three ironclad rules sound like standard textbooks, but I don't see the truly profitable traders following such strict rules.

empirically speaking, the "20% position cap" thing isn't actually revolutionary—it's just kelly criterion with training wheels, but sure go off about it i guess
