#密码资产动态追踪 $FHE "Three Trading Pitfalls, Five Years of Refining the Art of Stop-Loss — Starting from 5000U, Those Who Never Blow Up Understand"



In 2016, the year I entered the crypto world, I had only 5000U in my pocket.

$BREV Many people around me got liquidated on futures—some even had mortgaged their houses, and some slept on bridges. My account curve remained steadily upward, with a maximum drawdown kept within 8%. It’s not luck, nor insider info for airdrops, but a different approach: thinking like a market maker, not a gambler.

Here are three key points, just take them and use:

**First, lock in profits and compound, always keep the principal armored**

$SPK Every trade has a fixed take profit and stop loss. Once profits reach 10% of the principal, immediately withdraw half to a cold wallet. The remaining 50% continues to roll, using the earned money to seize the next opportunity. If the market keeps rising, enjoy the compound; if it turns, at most you give back some floating gains. The principal is always at zero risk.

Over five years, I’ve taken profits 37 times this way, with the biggest weekly withdrawal reaching 180,000U. The problem is—most people can’t do this, they always want to squeeze the last penny from the principal.

**Second, double orders for sniper entries, using others’ liquidation points as ATM**

This triple-cycle linkage strategy is brilliant: look at the big picture on the daily chart, refine the range on the 4-hour, and find sniper points on the 15-minute.

Open two orders on the same coin: Order A is a trend-following order, chasing breakouts of key levels, with stop loss set at the previous high or low on the daily chart; Order B is a lurking order, placing limit orders in overbought or oversold zones on the 4-hour chart. Both stop losses are ≤1.5%, with take profits starting at 5 times the risk.

80% of the market time is oscillating; while others blow up holding positions, you can profit from both sides of the volatility.

**Third, treat stop-loss as a ticket, risking 1.5% for a big move**

Stop-loss isn’t losing, it’s buying a ticket to watch the show. Small wounds within 1.5% don’t hurt the bones. If the market really moves, use trailing stops to let profits run. If you’re wrong, cut losses immediately—never gamble.

There’s a saying I always remember: the casino’s biggest fear isn’t you winning too much, but winning once and blowing up, never recovering. The market is the same.

The core of these three tricks is discipline and probability. Write them into your trading plan, and you’ll go from gambler to market maker. Consistent profits never come from quick gains, but from surviving long enough.

That was harsh, but there's some truth to it... The worst thing is knowing these things but still unable to change the greediness.

It seems logically consistent, but I still trust probability more than stories. How can we verify data like locking in profits 37 times?

Really? Starting with 5000U and still steadily going up? I feel like I'm just hearing a story. If it were that simple, billionaires would be everywhere already. The key is to go through a few margin calls to truly understand. Double single sniping sounds perfect, but in practice, it's probably just taking two hits. I agree with the logic of locking in profits, but the problem is that when the market moves, you simply can't hold. Human nature is the biggest trap in trading, discipline is easy to talk about but hard to practice.

Talking about longevity doesn't really help; in practice, your mindset can still break down, especially when you see the coin suddenly surge.

That's right, discipline is indeed the most valuable, but I've seen too many people go all in again after reading this kind of article, haha. --- The double single sniping move sounds perfect, but in practice, the biggest hurdle is the mindset. --- 5 years with 37 profit increases, I trust this data. But the key is to stick to that 1.5% stop-loss line; most people can't do it. --- The idea of wearing armor on the principal is brilliant; greed can destroy all previous gains in an instant. --- From a gambler to a house, it's easy to say, but how many can really survive for a long time? --- An 180,000 USD weekly profit, just hearing about it is enough, but the key is how to get through those days of floating losses. --- 80% of the market is shaking, I think this ratio should be discounted a bit, depending on the coin. --- Stop-loss as a ticket, this metaphor is perfect, it saved me a lot of heartache over money.

Damn, really? Starting with 5000U and only 8% drawdown, how strict must the discipline be? Just thinking about it makes me feel so uncomfortable... Honestly, the most common theory I hear is this one. How many actually follow through? Someone starts fantasizing about getting rich overnight with just a 20% increase, and even locks in profits with compounding... The double single sniper strategy sounds pretty good, but I have some doubts about the statement that 80% of the time in a ranging market is normal. It doesn't seem that high to me... Ah, the analogy of stop-loss as a ticket is still the best. Compared to those who stubbornly hold onto losing positions, it's really much better. The key is, everyone, you have to actually follow through...

It sounds very systematic, but I just want to ask—does this logic really hold up in a bear market, or is it just a survivor bias from the bull market?
