I am sharing my eight years of industry experience with everyone! First of all, the current crypto market is completely different from the way it operated after the 2021 bull run (contracts). We are now in a mature stage where artificial intelligence and big data are integrated. Major exchanges are continuously upgrading and expanding their algorithms! The primary goal is to ensure that the exchange does not lose money before seeking ways to increase profits! Just like business development, breakthroughs are possible! If you encounter any of the following situations, or all of them, I suggest you stop and read thoroughly before taking action! 1. The market is moving sideways, but as soon as you open a position, volatility appears. Rarely will you see a big profit immediately reaching your target; most of the time, you just see a slight floating loss after opening. 2. After being trapped, you notice that within a few minutes, the small floating loss begins to increase, reaching about 5 points or so, even if not liquidated. After a few minutes or an hour, the price oscillates back near your entry point or slightly in profit. You think it’s time to adjust your position, but most people won’t close a small part of the position. Instead, they change direction again, and the floating loss continues! 3. After resisting the loss and finally making a profit, you grit your teeth, but the price keeps oscillating just slightly in profit. As soon as you close the position, the market suddenly drops, causing you to sell at a loss! If you don’t sell, the price may go down further; if you sell, it might go up again. Regret for selling too early! 4. During a strong trend, whether the price is rising or falling, once you enter, you get trapped again. The price oscillates, and your position starts floating in loss until you hit stop-loss or get liquidated, losing your profits. If you’ve experienced any of these situations, don’t blame luck or lack of conviction. Remember, the core issue is not your personal weakness but the underlying mechanism! **Explanation of the cause:** When a user registers an account, all data—account balance, open positions, maximum margin capacity, liquidation points—can be instantly calculated. Don’t doubt it; this is possible for any current exchange! Why do these four common phenomena occur? Because the moment you open a position, the exchange’s automated warning system is triggered. It automatically analyzes your data, and before completing the analysis, your position is often temporarily trapped, causing a slight floating loss. Once trapped, your position info is incorporated into the exchange’s big data, analyzing the ratio of longs to shorts, and calculating at which price levels the platform maximizes profit and minimizes losses. If the market rises to liquidate shorts and favor longs, or if the platform’s own funds push the market upward, it can cause a quick drop after taking out shorts to prevent longs from escaping with profits. This is the real logic behind the common “pinning” phenomenon, where the price appears unchanged, but positions are wiped out! **How to solve or maintain stability in data?** If you are willing to learn humbly, continue; otherwise, please unfollow and leave! The trigger mechanism for opening positions is unavoidable for every user. Once a position is opened, the big data instantly calculates your position’s risk. The only way to handle this is through defensive strategies to prevent liquidation. The platform compares long and short data—such as for Ethereum, it only analyzes price ranges within 50, 100, or up to 300 points—because beyond that, data becomes less accurate due to market adjustments, stop-losses, reversals, etc. The main focus is on data within 50 points. If your margin is far from the liquidation point, even if your initial direction is wrong, your position won’t be liquidated as long as your margin holds. Even if the market eats through the longs, the platform prevents the shorts from profiting and causing a large drawdown, maintaining a symmetrical price level for profit-taking. If your initial direction is correct and you reach small profits, it’s best to exit early—don’t fear selling at a small profit, as it’s still profit. The platform’s market makers will prevent the opposing side from escaping with profits after taking some of the other side’s positions. This is why I emphasize: the entry point and direction are less important than ensuring your position size does not exceed 20% of your capital, and using low leverage (8x to 20x). This way, your margin is sufficient to withstand manipulations by the platform. Even if you are wrong, multiple add-ons can help self-rescue. Whether lowering the entry price through averaging down or using hedging, you need extra available funds to operate. For beginners, I recommend saving at least $1,000 and applying this strategy one-to-one. I guarantee you’ll thank me later. Avoid scams and fake coins—manipulating a fake coin with hundreds of thousands is easy! Use mainstream cryptocurrencies like ADA, SOL, DOGE, etc., for hedging. When opening and closing positions, avoid market orders; use limit orders to reduce fees. Feel free to criticize or challenge me!
