#美联储回购协议计划 $ETH $BTC Position Management Tips — The Key Is Your Mindset



I've seen too many traders blow up, mostly falling into two traps.

One is greed. When the market is good, they want to go all-in, expecting to double their gains and keep adding positions. But what happens? A wave of retracement wipes out their account. The Federal Reserve's easing of repurchase agreement policies and abundant liquidity do make the market tempting to bet on. But this is precisely the most dangerous time.

The other is high leverage. Using 2x or 3x leverage isn't enough; they insist on 5x or 10x. When the market experiences sharp volatility, just one extreme move can liquidate their position. This isn't trading; it's gambling.

The people who truly make money are often not the ones betting the most aggressively, but those who survive the longest.

The core logic of position management is simple:
- Keep each position at 5%-10% of total funds
- No matter how confident you are, don't leverage more than 2x
- Take profits gradually when in profit

Floating gains can easily cloud judgment. Watching account numbers jump constantly sparks the imagination. At this moment, what’s most needed is to hit the pause button.

Web3 markets are inherently volatile. A change in macro policies can push the market by a dozen points or more. Instead of betting on these uncertainties, it’s better to treat trading as a long-term marathon.

It's another old cliché about mindset, but it really hits the nerve. I also went all-in during that wave, and my account was directly cut in half. Now I’m still scared.

It's the same old story, but you really need to listen. A couple of days ago, I saw Brother get liquidated with 5x leverage, crying more than anything else, saying "Give me another chance"... Bro, there are plenty of chances, but it's just that the mindset can't hold up.

Exactly right, I'm that guy who got liquidated from greed... Now I look at my account balance and feel scared.

It's the same old story, I'm tired of hearing it. But honestly... it's a once-in-a-lifetime sight. Every bull market, new rookies go all in and get wiped out instantly. Luckily, I've learned my lesson.

Really, seeing someone shouting bull market with 10x leverage, I knew the next liquidation brother was born.

It's the same old story. The 10x liquidation happened because you didn't listen, right?

the "longest survivor wins" narrative hits different when you've actually witnessed the discord exodus of 2023... honestly, the fed's liquidity play is just another plot twist in this endless story we're all writing. greed becomes poetry when your portfolio's bleeding red, doesn't it?
