Let's talk about the most painful thing in the crypto world - it's not about how much you've lost, but being directly Get Liquidated and exiting.
I have seen too many people who dare to go all in with a few thousand U in hand, and a wave of correction directly returns to zero. To be honest, this kind of play is no different from giving away money.
I have also fallen into traps myself. At that time, I had 20,000 U in my account, thinking I had studied everything thoroughly. What happened? I chased highs, held on stubbornly, and acted emotionally, and in the end, there was barely anything left in my account. Later, I forced myself to calm down and took risk control seriously. Over four months, I gradually worked my way up to 100,000 U.
Today, let's talk about three most effective survival strategies.
**Don't use all your bullets at once**
Seeing an opportunity and wanting to go all in? That's a gambling mindset. You need to leave yourself a way out—open a position at most half, the other half is your insurance and ammunition. If the market is right, you can increase your position; if not, withdraw immediately. This is the skill to survive.
**You can't be ambiguous about profit taking and stop loss**
The crypto world is full of ups and downs. You might earn 30% today, but a big bearish candle tomorrow could wipe it all out. So set your stop-loss line, and if you need to run, just run; if you have made a profit, take some off the table for safety. If you can't use these two strategies, you will inevitably suffer big losses.
**Don't understand the coin type**
Among the projects on the market, eight out of ten are traps. Charging in without understanding the fundamentals? That's just throwing money to the dogs. It's better to watch others make money than to impulsively follow the trend. If you miss this opportunity, there will be another one, but if you lose your principal, it's really gone.
In the end, what the crypto world lacks the least is opportunity; what it lacks are those who can withstand temptation and protect their principal. By following these three protective measures, at least you can live a little longer, and living longer gives you a chance to turn things around.

Getting Liquidated with a Full Position is really brutal, I've seen too much.
---
Stop loss sounds simple, but hardly anyone actually uses it, it's all due to greed.
---
It's true that you shouldn't touch what you don't understand, but most people just can't control their hands.
---
From twenty thousand to one hundred thousand in four months? Is that reliable? Please share how it's done.
---
Position management is truly the core, half position is indeed safer, just afraid of human nature.
---
It's the hardest when you see others making money, actually missing an opportunity is not a big deal, losing the principal is what really means no chance of recovery.
---
Staying alive in the crypto world is much more important than making money, this really strikes a chord.
---
It's hard to quit the habit of chasing the price, staying calm is truly a luxury.

I have seen too many people go all in on this, and it always ends the same way.
Seriously, the stop loss line is like a condom; some people find it troublesome and don't use it, only to regret it when they get caught.
Back then, I also acted on impulse and went all in; thinking about it now still makes me cringe.
If you don't understand the coin, you really shouldn't touch it. Several frens around me got tied up because they followed the trend, and now they're still stubbornly holding on.
Position management sounds simple, but it really requires self-discipline to execute.
If you have profits, you should take some off the table. Those who can't shake off the habit of greed are destined to pay tuition.

Full Position? That's just giving away money, really.
---
Talking about stop loss is easy, but doing it is hard; when you see it fall, you want to hold on for dear life.
---
I can relate; when it goes from 20k to a few thousand, people are dumbfounded.
---
If you don't understand, don't touch it. How many times has this been said, yet there are still people stepping into pitfalls.
---
If risk control is not done well, no matter how much you earn, it's all in vain.
---
I just want to ask how to stick to a half position operation, it's too difficult.
---
Living longer is indeed more important than going all in, but that's human nature.
---
How are those guys who chased the price doing now? They probably have already exited.

Oh no, this is my two years ago self... I would go Full Position at the first golden cross of MACD, thinking back it was really foolish of me.
That Full Position move, I stubbornly held on at the head and shoulders pattern, completely without a stop loss, and deserved to get wiped out.
So true, position management is truly a lifeline. I now operate on half position, leaving the other half to add more or to Rug Pull at any time.
There are just too many people rushing in without looking at the bearish signals, can't you see any danger signals on the Candlestick? You have to experience it personally to understand.
The hardest part is that "if you don't understand, don't touch"... I've suffered losses on coins without knowing the fundamentals.
Buying the dip at historical highs is really addictive, every time I think this wave is different, but in the end, it's always the same.
It's great that I can still be here now, there are still many opportunities to turn things around, once the capital is gone, it's really GG.
