After trading for a year, I realize that the most reliable state is to keep the position between 30% and 50%. This way, you can follow the market trends without being scared by pullbacks and tossing and turning.
Here's a more straightforward analogy: driving is all about rhythm. Some people keep stomping the accelerator, hoping for a smooth ride through green lights—that's actually going too fast. Others keep slamming the brakes, afraid they can't move forward—that's not finding the right rhythm at all. The smartest approach is to adjust flexibly based on road conditions—speed up when needed, slow down when necessary.
Looking at the current situation, BTC is fluctuating around the 90,000 level. It's really hard to predict short-term movements. But in the long run, the direction hasn't changed. Instead of obsessing over short-term ups and downs, it's better to solidify your basic skills in position management, ensuring you can handle whatever the market throws at you with composure.
Ultimately, the market is always smarter than we imagine. The only thing we can do is find relatively stable opportunities amid uncertainty—and these opportunities are often hidden in reasonable position allocations.

30-50% position sizing... sure, until liquidity dries up and your "stable" allocation gets correlation-punched into oblivion. heard this risk-adjusted wisdom before—usually right before the next black swan event.

That's true, but I've seen too many people say 30-50% but actually hold 0 or be fully invested. Few can actually execute it.

The 30-50 position ratio is really tightly controlled. I do it this way too, so I don't have to watch the market every day and have my mental state collapse.

The 30-50 ratio I’ve tried before, and it’s really comfortable, no need to watch the market anxiously every day

The car analogy is good, but most people are still learning to turn before they want to speed
---
After such a long period of 90,000 fluctuations, it’s time to let go of short-term expectations
---
Position management is really a basic skill, but nine out of ten people tend to ignore it
---
You’re right, instead of predicting the trend, it’s better to manage your own chips well
---
I understood this a year ago, but executing it still often fails, it’s really hard
---
The underlying logic is sound, but the biggest challenge is always the mindset

Compared to the thrill of going all-in, the stability of 30-50 really allows people to sleep peacefully

I’ve tried the 30-50 range, and my sleep quality has definitely improved a lot haha
Exactly, the full-position folks should all be staring at the ceiling now
That car analogy is perfect, I used to be the type constantly stepping on the gas, but I’ve changed my attitude now

It sounds good, but ultimately self-discipline is key. Hearing that 30% to 50% is simple is one thing, but whether you can keep a stable mindset when actually implementing it is another matter.

The 30% to 50% range really hit me hard. I almost died of fright when I went all-in before.
