To win in these "Extreme Fear" conditions, you have to stop thinking like a trader and start thinking like a Business Owner.
When a store has a 30% off sale, people run into the store. In crypto, when there is a 30% sale, people run away.
The market is flushing out the final retail traders. Here is your general "Survivor's Strategy" for this environment. Here is the general strategy to win when the market is bleeding:
1. The "Rule of 3" (Capital Preservation)
• Divide your money: Never put 100% of your cash into the market at once. Divide your "buy" money into three equal parts.
• Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) is the most effective way to recover after a loss because it fixes the biggest mistake traders make: trying to time the perfect bottom.
• Slow Entry: Buy the first part now, the second if it drops another 10%, and the third only if it drops 20%. This ensures you never "run out of bullets" before the bottom is hit.
2. Follow the "Fear Index," Not the News:
• The Cheat Code: When the Fear & Greed Index is between 5 and 15 (where we are now), the risk of a further massive crash is much lower than the chance of a big bounce.
• The Mindset: Buy when you feel "sick" to your stomach. If you feel excited to buy, it’s probably too late.
3. Exit the "Trash," Enter the "Kings"
• Flight to Quality: In a crash, small/new coins (like ZAMA i.e seed coins) can drop 90% and never come back. Large coins (BTC
$BTC , ETH
$ETH , SOL
$SOL ) almost always recover.
• The Strategy: During a panic, move your money out of "risky" small coins and into the "Kings." Once the market stabilizes, you can move back into small coins for higher profits.
4. Use "Fixed" Stop-Losses, Not "Mental" Ones
• Automatic Discipline: Decide your "exit price" before you buy. Set the order in the exchange and do not touch it.
• Why? Your brain will try to convince you to "hold a little longer" when the price is falling. An automatic stop-loss removes the emotion that causes big losses.
5. The "Zoom Out" Test
• Look at the Weekly Chart: When you are panicking on the 5-minute chart, look at the 1-week chart. You will see that these "scary" drops are just tiny blips in a long-term uptrend.
• The Goal: Your job today is not to make 100% profit. Your job today is survival. If you survive the crash with your capital intact, you win the bull market.
• "Safe Portfolio" setup (e.g., 50% BTC, 30% SOL, 20% Cash) that you can use to stay calm during these volatile times.
6.The "Whale Entry" Rule
• Whales don't buy when the price is going up; they buy when people are crying.
• One another method is not to invest in risky coins instead buy those coins who are running against the flow of market.
The market is currently "raiding" liquidity. The goal of the big players is to make you sell your coins to them at a discount. If you can stay calm, keep 30–50% of your wallet in cash, and focus on high-quality coins (like SOL or BTC), you will come out of this month much stronger.
These are the few effective strategies to apply in these grive conditions, where the investors have always lost trust on the crypto markets, in such times these are the fruit full wayout to mitigate the loss and maximum protect one's money.
