The most common mistake in trading is going all-in in one shot. I've seen too many people put their last dollar into a position and end up getting wiped out when the market moves against them.



It's actually very simple—always leave yourself a backup plan. Keep a few hundred dollars aside; this isn't a waste, but a chip for rebirth. You can use this money to start a small business, deliver food, or invest in an electric scooter for part-time work—all of which can generate cash flow. The key is that when the market gives you an opportunity, you still have bullets in the chamber.

Look at this cycle; the trends of leading coins like BTC, ETH, and ZEC make it clear. Market changes happen quickly, and the risks are high. But if you go all-in without any buffer, a single pullback could wipe you out. Those who keep some reserve can instead buy the dip at the bottom and ultimately turn the tide in their favor.

Trading is fundamentally a game of probabilities. Protect your principal so you have a chance to participate in the next bull run. Don't let a single mistake ruin all your chances to turn things around.

You're so right, going all-in really is a surefire way to get killed. My friend went all in two years ago, and he was wiped out in one night. He's still working in food delivery now. It's really about saving some ammunition, so you can strike when the opportunity comes. If you don't have bullets for this round of BTC, you'll really regret it.

I've seen too many people go all-in and lose everything; that's not trading, that's gambling. Exactly right, if you have no bullets, you have no right to survive in this game.

The statement is correct, but 99% of you can't actually execute it. Just look at the on-chain data and you'll see that during every crash, big players are frantically buying up assets, while retail investors are still debating "whether to keep some cash" — think about why the gap is so huge and you'll understand.

Going all-in is truly a original sin; I've seen too many people lose everything in one shot, it's not worth it.

Going all-in is truly a painful lesson; I've seen too many people lose everything in one shot and end up crying. Keeping some bullets in reserve is the right way to play this game.

A one-shot all-in is like committing suicide; I've seen too many lessons learned from blood.
