Recently, we've been seeing altcoins like NMR and PYTH that double in value with short-term surges.
If you're already on board, it's simple: when the price hits a key resistance level, take partial profits first, then raise your stop-loss level. Leave the remaining position to ride the trend patiently.
If you're thinking about jumping in now, it's not impossible, but you must use the EMA moving average as your stop-loss line and calculate your position size in advance.
Here's an example:
Assume your capital is $10,000, and you limit risk per trade to 2% (i.e., $200).
Current price of the surging X coin = $50
EMA moving average = $48.5
The price difference is exactly 3% (0.03 × 50).
Position size = $10,000 × 0.02 ÷ (50 × 0.03)
= 200 ÷ 1.5
≈ 133 X coins
In other words, you can buy up to 133 X coins, with a position value of approximately $6,666, which accounts for 66.7% of your total capital.
This way, even if the price drops below the EMA stop-loss by 3%, your loss won't exceed $200.
Finally, and most importantly, the risk management method above ensures you know how much you might lose when opening a position. Whether X coin surges or not depends on whether its whales decide to play nice~
