#Strategy加仓BTC I can feel your situation.



To be honest, I don’t have much talent either. I’ve had so many liquidation orders I’ve lost count. I’ve made all the classic mistakes—missing the bull market and trying to bottom fish in the bear market. Last October, I had a trading friend who only had $5,200 left and said it was his last chance, wanting to discuss how to turn things around.

I didn’t give him any motivational speeches, just shared three survival rules I earned with real money. He followed this logic for four months, and his account grew from $5,200 to $70,000. The most amazing part is, he finally can sleep well—this is what’s truly valuable.

These three rules are fundamentally about surviving in a high-risk market. How long you can hold on depends not on your skills but on how much you want to survive in this battlefield.

**Rule 1: Capital Segmentation, Separate Accounts**

Your principal is your lifeline. The $5,200 must be divided into three parts, and never be used for anything else.

The first part, $2,000, is for the guerrilla fund. Focus on high-probability opportunities that can be confirmed within the day. Take one or two trades and then exit. Regardless of profit or loss, clear everything before the market closes. Then turn off the software, spend time with family, and delete the market from your mind.

The second part, $2,000, is strategic reserve. Only bet big—wait for weekly level reversals in main coins like $BTC and $ETH. If you don’t see a clear breakout pattern or a massive volume breaking through key levels, pretend this money doesn’t exist. Waiting itself is the highest-level skill.

The third part, $1,200, is insurance. Specifically for emergencies—during extreme market moves, if your core position is about to be liquidated, use this to save yourself. Don’t touch it during normal times; that’s suicide.

**Rule 2: The Middle Zone is the Safe Zone**

Don’t dream of buying at the lowest point and selling at the highest. That’s a game for gods.

What you can earn is the middle part of the wave. Wait for the pattern to be fully confirmed, wait until the price moves out of the low zone before entering, and once it rises another 30%, decisively exit. The huge profits at the ends are left for gamblers willing to risk everything.

**Rule 3: Trade Like an Execution Machine**

Markets love to eat up emotional traders. Every hesitation of yours is market nourishment.

Stop-loss is your red line—once hit, you must close the position automatically, no exceptions. Don’t think about averaging down or watching for one more minute. Accepting small losses is the only way to avoid bigger disasters.

Once your account grows by 10%, immediately move your stop-loss to your cost basis. From that moment, the trade is safe—at worst, no profit, but impossible to lose.

One last detail: at 11 PM, force yourself offline. Whether it’s trading software or market websites, disconnect everything. Feeling insomnia? Go for a run, watch some mindless variety shows. Only when you step away from the screen are you truly yourself.

The strategy is simple, execution is the hardest part. Most people fail at the phrase “just one more look.”

The stop-loss red line really hits home. I was among those who lost everything on the "Look again in one minute" moment. My account went from 20,000 to 10,000 because I couldn't bear to close the position at that moment.

Oh my, I need to take a screenshot and save these three rules, especially the one about being forcibly offline at 11 PM. I previously just "took one more look" and ended up getting liquidated directly.

ngl the "just one more glance" part hits different... that's where most people's portfolios go to die, honestly. the 11pm cutoff thing actually sounds less insane than it should.

Wow, from 5,200 to 70,000. Is this guy really not joking? The key is that I can still sleep now. That's truly amazing.

The three-account separation system is indeed tough, but what I really can't understand is how they can truly disconnect the internet at 11... I've tried, and my hands are trembling.
