How many people have had their account reach 80U, only to fall back to the starting point?



I have seen too much. And the problem has never been with the technology, but rather with an overwhelming sense of confidence.

The most heart-wrenching reality at this stage can be summed up in one sentence: a single operational mistake can lead from wealth to poverty.

So how to survive? The core logic is very simple – allow mistakes, but never make fatal errors.

**The Magic of Sub-accounts**

Divide 80U into 8 parts, moving only 10U each time. Sounds very conservative, right? But the result is completely different:

Mistake once? Still alive.
Miss three times? Keep going.
Wrong to the eighth time? Only then does it truly return to zero.

The biggest benefit of doing this is not how high the returns are, but that when the market reverses, your emotions won't collapse. The account is still active, so your mindset is still intact.

**Why must we use isolated margin instead of cross margin?**

Full position means putting all the principal at stake; if one position explodes, everything is lost. Isolated position is different - each position is an independent fortress. An extreme mistake in one order only loses the margin of that position, while other positions remain intact and can continue to operate.

Full margin is a gambling mindset, while incremental margin is a trading mentality. The difference is significant.

**Points worth upgrading at this stage**

Stop staring at the minute chart. Start looking at the 4-hour trend to feel the market's real temper. Try hedging between different currencies to reduce the risk of a single currency. The most important thing - only trade in markets you "understand", don't be greedy.

The logic of leading cryptocurrencies like BTC and ETH is relatively clear. Starting to accumulate from here has a higher success rate than randomly trading altcoins.

This approach seems conservative, but in reality, it is using time to exchange for probability. The longer you live, the more opportunities there are to make money.

Damn, I've seen this happen too many times, to put it bluntly, it's just greed that has burned their brains. Using multiple accounts has indeed saved me several times, but it still depends on self-control.

80U to drop to zero, I've seen a lot... to put it bluntly, it's just a mindset get liquidated, while the technique is still fine. This trap of splitting positions is indeed ruthless, 8 portions of 10U are much more reliable than going all in on a gamble, one mistake allows you to continue operating, you won't just kneel down directly. Going all in is truly a suicidal trade, just like a gambler.

Damn, that hits too hard. I've seen it go from 80 to 0 no less than ten times, and it's always the same group of people.

Indeed, going all-in is looking for death; diversifying is the way to survive. --- There are too many people who went from 80U to drop to zero, mostly out of greed. --- This gradual position management has indeed saved my mindset; otherwise, a single explosion would have wiped everything out. --- Watching the 4-hour chart is much better for the mindset than staring at the minute chart, reducing the impulse to frequently cut losses. --- Only trade what you understand; this saying should be etched in your mind. --- To put it bluntly, you still have to endure; living longer allows you to make money. --- BTC and ETH are indeed more reliable than randomly chasing altcoins; the success rate speaks for itself. --- The logic of dividing into 8 parts of 10U is clever because if you're wrong, you can still continue; that's trading.

I'm tired of the trap from 80U to 0; the key is that I can't help but want to go all in, this problem really can't be fixed.
