#Strategy加码BTC配置 The most common mistake for newcomers entering the circle: thinking about doubling their investment from the start, only to end up losing everything and exiting. I’ve been down that road too, once losing an account from 200,000 to just 10,000.



That period was the hardest, but it also forced me to give up the idea of "smart trading." Later, I switched to a very simple but highly disciplined method, sticking to it for five years. My win rate remained above 90% over the long term, gradually reaching eight-figure assets. Looking back, the secret to success is actually just one thing: **Trading is never about brains, but about execution**.

I’ve condensed my years of experience into 10 bottom lines:

**Only look at strong coins after they drop 8-9 days** — The premise is that top-tier coins with declining trading volume indicate the selling pressure is quickly running out.

**If it rises for two days in a row, cut your position in half immediately** — Lock in profits first; treat the remaining position as a reward from the market.

**A single-day surge over 7%, usually has inertia the next day** — Continue holding on volume; if volume shrinks, exit immediately. Don’t expect to ride the entire trend.

**Never chase highs in a bull market** — Wait for it to retest the 30-day moving average or key support levels before acting.

**Set wider stop-loss than take-profit** — This is the only guarantee to stay alive and exit safely.

**Always build positions gradually, refuse to go all-in at once** — No one can buy the bottom perfectly in one shot.

**Rebound in hot coins is a signal to reduce positions** — Don’t be greedy and try to catch the entire rally.

**Volume increase at the bottom is the most trustworthy signal** — Trading volume is more honest than any news.

**In sideways markets, do T+0 trading; in trending markets, follow the trend** — Use the same capital but adapt your strategy to the market type.

**In the end, it’s about endurance and mindset** — Those who truly make it to the end and profit are those who can endure, wait, and stay disciplined.

Many people can’t accept these ideas, thinking they are too conservative. But I’ve seen too many accounts vanish due to greed.

Remember one truth: The ones who make money are not the smartest, but those who follow the rules and last until the end.

This logic sounds reasonable, but how many people can truly stick to it? I've seen too many individuals who follow the rules diligently in the first three months, only to start changing the rules in the fourth month.

I'm curious about the part where you went from losing 200,000 to just 10,000. How did you get through that... Was it really just discipline?

The drop from 200,000 to 10,000 is something I've experienced too. The market really teaches you how to behave... Now I understand, this game is all about who can survive until the end. I must remember the rule of cutting in half after a continuous rise; it's too easy to get greedy. Honestly, a 90% win rate sounds a bit suspicious, but the logic is correct—discipline > intelligence. Gradually building positions is the most practical approach. Going all-in is really just a gambler's mentality. May I ask, which phase was the hardest for you during those five years? Trading volume is more honest than news. That really hit home—I was fooled by positive news too many times before. Following rules makes money, greed disappears, simple and straightforward. But it's hard to execute, everyone. Ultimately, those 10 bottom lines boil down to one thing: living is more important than making quick money. Wider stop-loss than take-profit may seem counterintuitive, but thinking about it, it makes sense—capital safety is the foundation.

Losing from 200,000 to 10,000 was really painful, but compared to those still doubling in their dreams, at least you are still alive. Going all-in is truly the biggest enemy; I've seen too many people disappear after a single all-in. Honestly, a 90% win rate maintained for five years... this level of execution is indeed exceptional.

Losing from 200,000 to 10,000... this is the most honest textbook of the market. The polite way to say it is "paying tuition," but the harsh reality is that you got a hard slap in the face. However, those who survive ultimately understand—that rules are the only moat.

90% win rate over five years with eight figures, on-chain data can be misleading but trading volume won't. Your strategy essentially boils down to judging capital flow, in other words, tracking the movements of whales—just a different way of saying it.

I have a deep understanding of losing 200,000 to 10,000. At that time, I really thought I had gained insight, but I was slapped awake by the market. Now I strictly adhere to discipline and dare not have any luck-based mindset.

There's nothing wrong with this approach; it's just difficult to execute. A couple of years ago, I also wanted to go all-in, but I got hit with several IQ taxes haha. After carefully studying this framework, the bottom volume spike is the most reliable, much more useful than just looking at candlestick charts. Losing 200,000 to 10,000 is really brutal. Being able to withstand it and develop this set of strategies is truly impressive.

The range from 200,000 to 10,000, I’ve been through it too, it’s truly worse than death... Now I understand, this circle is a test of human nature. You’re absolutely right. I was chasing highs and getting my face slapped two months ago. Now I’m going to strictly follow your method and see how it goes. The part about reducing positions during a rebound in popular coins really hit me. I always want to buy more, but then I get hammered right after. Execution > Smart brains. This phrase should be engraved in my mind... The problem is, how can I truly stick to it? The part about building positions in batches, I now understand why I lost everything with my previous all-in approach. Serves me right. The bottom volume signal is the most practical, a hundred times more reliable than those indicators touted by big V influencers.
