One of the biggest pains for traders isn't being wrong, but being right about the trend yet missing the fill. You have 10,000 USDT and analyze that Bitcoin will drop to hard support at $95,000. You place your entire $10,000 in a single Limit order exactly at $95,000. Price drops to $95,010 and rockets to $100,000. You missed the entire wave just because of $10. To fix this, use the Laddering Strategy.
🔸 Instead of an all or nothing bet at one price, split your capital into smaller portions and spread them down like steps on a ladder.
Level 1 Probe Buy 20% capital, place slightly above support.
👉To ensure that if the price only dips slightly, you still have skin in the game.
Level 2 Standard Buy 30% capital, place exactly at hard support
👉This is the ideal technical entry according to textbooks.
Level 3 Sweep Buy 50% capital, place deep below support
👉To catch long wicks caused by Panic Selling or Liquidity Sweeps.
🔸 This strategy keeps you proactive in every scenario:
If price dips slightly then pumps you filled 20 to 50% of your bag. It not a Full position, but small profit is better than watching from the sidelines.
If price crashes hard you fill the largest order at the deep bottom. As a result, your Average Entry Price will be beautiful, much lower than if you had gone Allin at 96k or 95k.
🔹 Do not try to be a Sniper hitting the exact bottom with one shot. The probability is extremely low.
Think like a Fisherman. Cast a wide net with multiple layers. No matter what depth the fish swims at, you will catch something.
Be honest, how many times have you set a buy order at $50.00, only for the price to hit $50.01 and skyrocket, leaving you regretting it for a week? Did you wish then that you had laddered your orders starting from $50.10?
