In the crypto world, many people aren't wrong about the market trend; they just die from losing control of their positions.

Those who get wiped out and go to zero on altcoins, those who miss the bull market and get their legs broken by overleveraged positions, and those who are fully invested in a bear market and can't move—it's not bad luck, it's your positions that are threatening your life. There are no invincible gods in crypto, only those who survive steadily. Position management is the only protective shield to navigate through bull and bear markets.

Here are 5 survival rules even beginners can follow:

1. Three-stage position building: Divide your capital into three parts, 10% for trial trades to explore, add positions when the trend is clear with 20%, and keep 20% as emergency funds.

2. Risk-weighted allocation: No more than 25% in mainstream coins (BTC/ETH), single altcoins not exceeding 5%, and leverage within 10x not exceeding 10% of your capital.

3. Stop-loss reverse calculation of position: First set your stop-loss range, then calculate your position size by dividing the maximum loss amount by the stop-loss range, leaving enough buffer to prevent liquidation.

4. Adjust according to the cycle: In a bear market, try trading with 5%-8% to control losses; in early bull markets, increase to 50%-70%; in late stages, reduce holdings to 30% to hold cash.

5. Abandon emotional trading: Plan ahead, fix your entry points, stop-loss points, and position sizes; do not allocate more than 20% to a single coin; after three consecutive losses, stop and review.

The market is never short of opportunities; what’s missing is your capital when opportunity strikes.
Surviving is never just a choice; it’s a skill.
