#数字资产市场动态 The crypto world is not a casino—it's a battlefield. Those who truly make money rely not on luck, but on their own set of survival rules.



People often say that making money in crypto depends on luck? That mindset should have changed long ago.

Here's a real example worth noting: a novice enters with an initial 2000U, and in three months, it grows to 32,000U. Now they are holding a steady 65,000U in assets, with zero liquidation during this period. How is this possible? Not because they are chosen by luck, but because they mastered the set of skills I used to go from 10,000U to financial freedom.

**First hand: Diversification is the only trump card for survival**

You can't just throw 2000U all in at once. Divide it into three parts, about 660U each, with each having its own approach:

Intraday trades: Make one trade per day, take profits when done, never greedy; Swing trades: Hold for about ten days without touching, and when the time comes, ride the big wave for a full segment; Core holdings: Do nothing if it’s flat—this is your lifeline, the chance for a comeback depends on it.

What about people who go all-in? One drop and they explode, losing the chance to even make money. Remember this: in crypto, survival comes first; only when you're alive can you talk about doubling your assets.

**Second hand: Take big profits and let go of small ones, manage your mindset like this**

Eighty percent of the time in crypto is spent in consolidation and frustration. Daily trading all the time is just giving money to the market. The ones who truly understand how to play are not trading machines but hunters—waiting for a clear trend, then striking decisively to capture the core move.

Another critical detail: take 25% profit and don’t be greedy. Quickly take a 30% profit and run. The money you actually get is real money; the floating gains on the screen are illusions.

**Third hand: Use rules to suppress emotions—this is the watershed in trading**

Before each trade, you must lock in these three strict rules:

Stop-loss at 2.5%. When reached, cut it immediately—no hesitation; When profits reach 5%, reduce your position and lock in some gains; The last rule—absolutely no adding to positions. Averaging up is not saving the trade; it’s gambling with a bigger hole, betting on an almost impossible turnaround.

The biggest opponent in trading is not the market itself but an out-of-control heart. Let your capital cycle according to the process, not dance to the beat of your heartbeat.

Can you really make money in crypto? The answer isn’t about market conditions but whether you have a set of trading rules that can keep you alive. That’s the difference.

How to say it, the split-position strategy really hits the mark. I've seen too many people go all-in with full positions, and after one wave, they're gone. It's just one word: greed. The floating profits on the screen are all fake; only when you take it out is it real. But to be honest, knowing and doing are two different things. The hardest part is maintaining the right mindset.

From a technical perspective, there is a confusion here between the risk management framework and the essence of trading profitability. Hmm... The data shows that the case of that novice trader actually has a small sample size, which is insufficient to support the conclusion of "systematic profit." It is worth noting that the position sizing strategy is essentially a variant of the Kelly formula, but the article overlooks the impact of market microstructure on the effectiveness of stop-losses. I have to criticize the ban on adding positions—an absolute prohibition itself violates the fundamentals of probability theory. Reverse position adding can actually be the optimal strategy under certain market conditions. Quoting from Chapter 7 of "Algorithmic Trading," such absolute rules often lead to over-optimization. In summary, rules are important but not the only variable.

After listening to stories from the crypto world for so many years, this position-splitting logic really hits the point, but to be honest, most people still get stuck on greed. The real difficulty isn't understanding the rules, but the mental demons during execution. I've seen too many people want to double their position at just 25%. I deeply understand the 2.5% stop-loss rule. In my early years, I was reluctant to cut my position, and a small loss turned into a catastrophic liquidation. The illusion of floating gains on the screen is just that—an illusion. This phrase must be engraved in your mind. How many people have fallen for "just wait a bit, it will double"? The strategy of dividing into three parts is good; it's like buying three insurance policies for yourself. But the premise is that you can truly resist touching the bottom position.

The split-positioning strategy is truly harsh on the surface but kind-hearted underneath. It may sound cold-blooded, but it's actually a lifesaver. I've seen too many corpses of those who bet everything and lost.
