Walking on the street, I suddenly remembered this experience and couldn't help but laugh. The operations during this round of the market can be described as a mix of emotions—missing out on this wave of rise, getting liquidated on BCH short positions, chasing altcoins only to get wrecked, and losing everything on SOL shorts. In the end, I only survived by shorting BTC.

Just as I was about to break even, greed took over again. Bought more SOL, went all-in on BTC longs, and ended up losing half of it directly. That wave last night was truly a lifesaver.

After closing all positions, I finally made a profit of $85. Honestly, the lessons from this time are quite profound. Next, I plan to return to fundamentals, strictly follow a fixed position size strategy, and avoid reckless moves. Moving forward, I will place orders at support and resistance levels, so even if my judgment is wrong, I can still have a relatively better exit opportunity through proper position sizing.

BCH0,62%

SOL1,87%

BTC0,27%

Haha, this move is really genius. Margin call after margin call, and I only made 85 bucks in the end? I need to learn this skill.

This guy really has some understanding, coming out alive with just $85 is a winner.

Haha, laughing to death. This is my daily routine. Greedy once and go all in. Got it, got it.

Haha, this is a classic case of "coming back alive is winning." Surviving on $85 is a miracle. Going all-in feels good temporarily, but closing positions leads to a cremation, and I’ve truly realized that. Promised not to mess around, but when the market comes again, I want to rush in bloodily—that's fate. The short position救命局 (life-saving move) really understands the situation, it's that glimmer of hope in moments of despair. Fixed position sounds right, but can you really stick to it... Missing out, liquidation, and then more liquidation—this combo has truly shown its true colors. Surviving and chatting on $85 is already good, many people have been wiped out completely in one round.

Ha, this is the legendary "narrow escape," surviving with $85 is considered a win. The more I think about it, the more absurd it becomes. If this game really goes according to plan, then he's not a trader. I've heard the term "all-in" too many times. Every time, I say not to go crazy, but you know how it goes. All I can say is that market education is quite expensive, but these lessons are often the most effective. Sticking to a fixed position size sounds easy, but actually坚持下去 is the real challenge. Keep it up.

Haha, this is the self-discipline of new investors: margin call → all-in → margin call again in an endless cycle. Wait, you only made $85 in the end? How many times do you have to lose to recover that?

Haha, this sequence of operations is really brilliant, each one more disastrous than the last. Getting out with $85 is considered good; some people keep messing around like this and their accounts go to zero.

Haha, this is us. Only after a liquidation do we understand trading. The gambler's mentality is the most dangerous; a little greed and it's all gone. Getting out alive with $85 is already good; many people don't even have that.
