Look at a real story: a brother with 10,000 USDT full position opening 10x leverage, and when the market gently retraced 3%, his account was wiped out. When I checked his trading record, it was even more outrageous—he threw all 9,500 USDT into a single position, with no stop-loss set, leaving no way out.

Many people think that full position can resist dips, but actually, it's the opposite. Using full position incorrectly is even more deadly than isolated positions. Leverage itself is dangerous; it's you who push your entire net worth into it.

Let's do some quick calculations. If you have 1,000 USDT and use 900 USDT to open a 10x position, a 5% move against you will wipe out your account. But if you only use 100 USDT to open the same leverage, it takes a 50% move against you to get liquidated. Both accounts face the same market, the difference is in position management.

I've lived this long by following these three strict rules:

**First**, keep each single position within 20% of your total funds. If you have 10,000 USDT, never open more than 2,000 USDT at once. Even if you pick the wrong direction, a 10% stop-loss only loses 200 USDT, leaving room to recover.

**Second**, never lose more than 3% of your total capital on a single trade. With 2,000 USDT at 10x leverage, your stop-loss must be set in advance, limiting your loss to 300 USDT at most. Even if you make three consecutive mistakes, you still have more than half your capital left, so your mindset won't collapse.

**Third**, only eat the meat of trend breakouts; during choppy markets, don’t reach out. Never add to your position when you're making profits; if emotions take over, stop immediately, shut down, and stay calm.

Many people misunderstand what full position means. Full position isn't about risking everything; it's about leaving enough room for error so you can survive longer. Opportunities are always in the market, waiting for you—so long as you haven't been wiped out.

I once taught a fan who used to blow up his account every month. After I explained these three rules to him, he really started to control himself. In three months, his account grew from 5,000 USDT to 30,000 USDT. He told me something I remember very clearly: "I used to think full position was gambling my life, but now I understand, full position is for steady survival."

Crypto is never about who runs faster; it's about who survives the longest. Instead of guessing market ups and downs every day, better to manage your positions well—slowing down is actually the fastest way.

The market is always there; the key is your rhythm. To break free from the vicious cycle of liquidation, start with position management. Follow this mindset, and your trading will become more and more stable, your account growing steadily.
