#数字资产动态追踪 【Midnight Call, The Moment of Account Explosion】

That call came in the early morning. On the other end of the screen was a friend's colleague, whose tone was almost breaking: "Lost the 30,000 U in my hands, went all-in with a 20x short, and as soon as the market turned, it rose 2%, directly breaking through."

I checked his trading records—went all-in with 28,500 U in one shot, without even setting a stop-loss. This is the legendary "risking life for huge profits."

Similar stories happen every day. Many insist that full positions can "spread out costs," since "it's their own money they’re losing," and at worst, grit their teeth and double down to recover. But the cruel reality is: full position is not risk management, it’s betting your entire wealth on a single chip.

You have 5,000 U, and use 4,500 U to open a 20x leverage? If the market moves against you by just 2.5%, your account becomes zero. But if you only use 500 U to open the same 20x leverage, the market would need to move 25% against you to blow up. That guy was different—he bet 95% of his principal, and under 20x leverage, a slight sneeze from the market could wipe him out completely. Liquidation is never caused by leverage multiples; the real executioner is the decision to "bet all your assets."

Later, I set three trading bottom lines for him: "Profit as long as you're alive." He stuck to these for three months, not only avoiding liquidation again, but also climbing from a negative balance back to 12,000 U:

**First: Use only 15% of total funds per trade.**

Suppose the account has 10,000 U; at most, invest 1,500 U per trade. Even with a 12% stop-loss, the loss is only 180 U, which is 1.8% of total funds. Solid foundation, capable of multiple trial-and-error attempts.

**Second: The maximum loss per trade is 2%.**

Use 1,500 U to open 20x leverage, and set a 1% stop-loss in advance. Worst case, lose 150 U, exactly 2% of total funds. Even if you lose 50 trades in a row, the account still has half. It hurts the skin, not the bones.

**Third: Don’t trade without seeing the trend, and don’t greed over floating profits.**

Only trade in "moving averages aligned + trading volume continuously increasing" patterns. This way, you can kick out luck-based psychology from your trading logic.

A young guy who followed the trend used to blow up his account every month and wanted to quit the market. After applying these three rules, starting from 3,000 U, he doubled his account to 6,000 U in two months. A few days ago, he sent a message: "I used to think full position was a symbol of bravery, now I understand—surviving is the real skill of a veteran."

Every day, people in the crypto market dream of getting rich overnight, and every day, some stumble in the dark. Learning to survive in this market is the first step to actually catching the market’s real benefits. The signs of a trend are already emerging—don’t gamble everything alone in solitude.

If you believe in this method, start by learning to "lighten your position," and the days of steady safe landing are not far away.
