#Strategy加仓比特币 In the winter of 2017, a basement in Beijing, 5 square meters, no heating. Bank card had 87 yuan, during the day serving dishes, at night watching K-line charts. Eight years have passed, and the account figures in Lujiazui make me look back at those days—it's not luck that turned things around, but four survival rules hammered out by the market's bloody lessons.
**Rapid rise must be followed by rapid fall**
That year during the bull market, a certain altcoin surged 320% in ten days, with my full position of 80,000. On the third day, it plummeted 18%, and a week later I lost 60,000 before stopping the loss. Only later did I understand the logic: a sudden increase of over 30% → sideways trading for 3-5 days → a sudden volume spike with a 15% drop, this is the market maker unloading. I have seen this pattern dozens of times, always effective.
**Sideways consolidation at high levels is a trap**
In 2019, holding mainstream coins, watching sideways for two months, I added leverage to top up my position, only to be cut in half. The indicator told me: sideways for over 20 days, turnover below 2%, deviation from the 20-day moving average over 20%, essentially a signal of distribution, not "accumulation." Now, when this pattern triggers in the system, I immediately reduce my position, I won't wait.
**Look at volume, not price, for true bottoms**
During the crash on March 12, 2020, I bottomed out with $LINK, and was trapped for a long time afterward. What does a real bottom look like? Shrinking volume consolidation plus gentle volume increase with three consecutive small bullish candles. Last year, Bitcoin showed this pattern at $25,000; I fully entered, sold at $42,000, earning 5.8 million in a single trade. Price can deceive, but volume never lies.
**Position management determines life and death**
Live long enough to win. I stick to half-position trading, never leverage. Last year, I entered only after a fivefold volume increase in $PEPE, and when the trend broke, I took profits immediately, earning 12 times while avoiding the subsequent crash. In crypto, no one is smarter than anyone else, only those who survive longer. The market changes, human nature never does. Keep your bottom line, and you'll go far.

Wow, I really can't hold back on that 87 bucks part. Currently, there are quite a few people whose monthly salary isn't even at that level... But I really appreciate the focus on volume rather than price. I also got caught in the LINK wave last year and have a deep understanding of it.

Even at 87, you dare to watch the K-line. This guy is really bold, I'm scared.

That 87-dollar part was really amazing. Looking back now, these rules are all lessons learned by throwing money at them. I have deep experience with sideways trading at high levels; so many times, I was just waiting to die in "accumulation."

I've heard the story of 87 yuan many times, but the 5.8 million transaction was really ruthless. I just don't quite understand, why wait for PEPE to increase fivefold before moving with half a position? This logic seems a bit backwards.

Honestly, I've seen many stories with similar patterns, but focusing on volume rather than price really hit home. The jump from 87 to Lujia's order span is more heartbreaking than the probability itself.
