November finally turned around, this month I pocketed 750 dollars.
At the end of the month, I directly withdrew and left only 100 yuan in the account to start over. This wave of profits mainly came from short positions—earlier, I used trading bots to place various altcoin short positions, and I was lucky enough to catch the market crash.
After having some capital, I started to dabble in contracts, but I got hit with withdrawals two weekends in a row, and at that time, I was really on the verge of breaking down. After taking a few days to adjust my mindset, I realized: every time I open a position, I should control it around 20u, this range of fluctuation I can handle, so that I won’t be affected in my judgment by going all-in.
I hope to maintain a steady pace in December and not ride the roller coaster anymore.

You dare to withdraw $750? Bro, your mentality is still a bit fragile.
You've gotten smarter with the $20 stop loss; it's definitely better than going all-in.
If you're lucky enough to catch a short, just cash out immediately—I can't handle this kind of play.
If you can hold steady in December, that's real profit. Don't let it all pull back again.

$750 is quite a lot. I understand the joy of profiting from a short position—luck plays the biggest part.
Opening a position with 20u is honestly the right approach. All-in gamblers will crash sooner or later.
Stick to this pace in December, and don't go back to the rollercoaster routine.

750 dollars can be withdrawn directly, this guy really understands Risk Management.
Short orders do make money, but those two weekends with the contracts almost didn't hold on haha.
A 20u order is indeed stable, but it's said that we won't ride the roller coaster, December should start again, right?

750 dollars, this wave is indeed good, but the real bull is the one who knows how to lock in profits.
Short orders rely on luck; the contract broke defense directly over two weekends... I can feel that feeling of can't hold on anymore, it's too real.
Position control of 20u sounds easy but is hard to do; those who can understand this point can live longer.

750 dollars, this wave of short order was buy the dip
All in is really the biggest poison in trading, steadily making profits with 20u is the way to go.

750 dollars in hand, while I’m happy, what I care most about is that 20u Position management... This is what it means to survive statistically.
Profiting from short orders on altcoins that Plummet is indeed lucky, but the real wisdom lies in the following phrase, "not to go All in"... The bear market has just calculated that this shift in mentality can increase the Sharpe ratio by at least 0.8.
If we ride the roller coaster again in December, based on historical backtesting data, it’s very likely that the Position management will be problematic... Holding on to the belief in 20u is half the victory.

750 bucks, this luck is really good, the feeling of making money with a short order is indeed satisfying, just afraid that December will start causing trouble again.
This guy's summary is quite right, entering a position with 20u is indeed a rational approach, much more sensible than my previous tendency to go all in, that was really a moment of weakness.
The operation of withdrawing and leaving has some merit, unlike some people who think of doubling their profits after making money, and end up giving it all back, it seems they've learned their lesson.

750 dollars have all been withdrawn, tough guy, this is the attitude that should be had.

The short order making money wave was indeed luck, but surviving until now shows some skill.
---
20u Enter a Position at this spot is good, much more rational than those who go all in.
---
I really understand the feeling of being blown up over the weekend, that feeling of not being able to hold on is really painful.
---
Only leaving 100 dollars to start over, this mindset is not wrong.

As long as we stabilize in December, we win, don't be greedy, it's the easiest way to flip.
