#2026年比特币行情展望 It's 1 a.m., and suddenly a friend's voice call comes through, trembling: "Sis, I went all-in with 20,000 bucks on a long position, if it drops 3% it's all gone..."
I pull up the trading record and see that almost the entire account was invested, with no stop-loss set. Is this trading? No, this is just risking your entire net worth on a single direction.
Many people think that full position can double profits, but in reality, only losses are doubled. Imagine this: with a principal of 10,000U, you use 9,000U to open a 10x leverage position. As long as the market moves against you by just 5%, your account is wiped out. But think differently: with the same 10,000U, if you only use 1,000U to trade, the market must drop 50% to shake you—this is your survival space, this is your chance to come back.
After that incident, I set three strict rules for myself, and breaking any one of them means abandoning the entire trading habit:
**Rule 1: The maximum single position size is 20% of total funds.**
For a 10,000U account, the most you can trade at once is 2,000U. Even if this trade hits stop-loss and exits, you only lose 2%-4% of your total funds—within a controllable pain point, avoiding serious damage.
**Rule 2: Single trade loss strictly capped at 3%.**
Before opening a position, plan where to set the stop-loss. For example, with a 2,000U position, control the stop-loss at 1.5%, meaning a worst-case loss of 300U, which is 3% of the account. Clear numbers keep you from panicking.
**Rule 3: Only act when the main trend is confirmed, and stay calm after profits.**
Avoid trading in choppy, oscillating markets; wait until the trend is clear before taking action. After making money, lock in profits with a trailing stop-loss, and don’t let emotions lead you to add positions.
There was a fan who used to blow up his account every month. After hearing these rules, he stuck to them for three months—and as a result, a 5,000U account steadily grew to 8,000U. He later told me: "I used to think small positions meant being timid, but now I understand that small positions are to keep myself in the game forever."
The longer you stay and survive in this market, the more valuable it is than making quick profits. Those who truly make money are not gamblers who get rich overnight, but people who survive time and time again, seizing opportunities repeatedly.
