🥇 Higher Trading Competition – Top 1 AMA 🥇
We sat down with
@cav4lier, the champion of our latest competition, to hear about his journey, trading style, and why Higher has become his favorite platform on Base.
Q&A:
1. Can you briefly introduce yourself and your trading style on Base?
- Hello, I'm a cav4lier living in Brazil. I started studying crypto in 2020. Luckily, I started earning, but I soon lost all my initial capital in the collapse of Luna and then FTX. I didn't give up because of that and continued doing airdrops, speculating, and currently I managed to recover everything I lost simply by voluntarily supporting new projects on Base.
2. How was your trading experience on Higher compared to other platforms?
- I discovered Higher through a Clanker retweet and immediately started using it, and it was love at first sight. Most other Telegram bots didn't have a web interface, and it was difficult for me to use Telegram to manage my positions, which Higher does, and it's intuitive and easy to manage with an incredible UI/UX!
3. What was the most memorable moment for you during the competition?
- In my first trade, I managed to double my capital when I realized that an influencer with 2 million subscribers started streaming on Retake.
4. You climbed straight to the #1 spot with just a few trades. Can you share the secret behind picking those “ace” trades?
- I've been following the market for some time, mainly interacting on Farcaster, and I can identify when someone impactful to the community launches a project/token.
5. What were your main criteria when choosing tokens to trade?
- First of all, risk management. I don't want to get rich or retire with just one trade. I'm here for the long term. If I can earn a little with each new launch, I'm already happy with that. The new opportunities are vast and abundant in this market, so there will always be something new that I can participate in with 1% or 2% of my capital, which could become 10% or 20% of my portfolio in the future.
6. Did you prepare a strategy in advance for the competition, or did everything happen more naturally?
- Yes, if you have a strategy in mind, everything becomes easier to manage. To turn 0.1 ETH into Glory, I chose to bet on a portfolio of Streamers (CCM) in Base through Retake. I identified that the narrative was hot, with several streamers starting to do their livestreams adjacent to this, launching new tokens where the initial market cap is only $4,000, thus allowing me to make exponential profits if I managed to be one of the first in the orderbook.
7. What do you think about Higher’s fee rebate system - especially the x2 fee rebates on losing trades?
- Everything works very well and is easy to understand with an intuitive interface. I confess that I don't worry about fees as long as I can perform well and feel comfortable with the platform execution. I always know that I have some ETH to claim after some trades on Higher, but I haven't yet delved into these calculations to determine if I'm really saving less than on other platforms. I know that I already save more on Higher than on the biggest platforms on the market like Uniswap, but I still need to study this further. As I have little capital, I don't worry so much, but it seems to be a win-win for both sides!
8. Is there anything else you’d like to share?
- I'd like to congratulate you for doing this work, which I consider genuine, and for all your dedication to responding promptly when we need support across different platforms, as well as for always being eager for feedback! Higher has now become my favorite platform for trading on Base.
🙏 Thanks cav4lier for sharing your story with the Higher community!
