Wizard tower and mortars are much higher priority than the cannons or archer towers due to their splash defense. Wizard towers and mortars should be one of the FIRST upgrades at any TH level, despite the fact they cost more, due to being much more beneficial, especially against tier 1 troops. I would imagine the OP gets swarmed by tier 1's frequently (I know I could 100% barch that base easily). Also protecting both storages and collectors will be incredibly important for him since his walls and defenses are so low and will need so much loot. Your mortars/wizard towers are really what protects the majority of the loot so high level upgrades of these are recommended early.
This.
I'm especially a fan of the notion to get your tier 1 troops to max... this will at least allow you to attack others to gain the coin for the defensive upgrades.
At this point, your defences are so low that you'll hopefully be spending all your coin before you log off, leaving nothing to take. Once you start to build the coin for higher defences you'll be stronger and hopefully more able to withstand attacks to retain your coin for those bigger upgrades.

P.S. Move your Townhall outside your base to hopefully give you cheap shields. Don't worry about trophy's... your base won't live through any type of trophy push anyway.
probably one of the most important things you can do now (besides dumping all your resources into upgrades before you go to bed) is to leave your townhall outside in a corner, surround it with cheap decorations.
If you get rid of all your resources each night before bed, then you will almost definitely get a cheap shield from a trophy pusher, meaning you only lose some trophies and 1000 or each resource, which is basically nothing.
Only trying to help out here. Im an expierenced farmer with two accts, one a premie rush job to TH9..
My suggestions
Elixir upgrades recommended order:
1 Lab. This is the single most important upgrade each new TH level. Then work on upgrading your most used troops in the most used order. I recommend Barbs 6, Giants 6, Minions 5 then Archers 6. B’loons 6 if you like to go air (and if your Minions are lvl 4 or 5)…These tend to be the most effective farming troops for TH9 IME. I don’t know how you raid so those are just suggestions.
2 Spell Factory Getting access to the 4th spellif you don’t already have it.
3 Camps to ‘Rocks’ and get your 220 troops asap
After those are maxed for TH9, then work on Dark Drills, Dark Storage, Barrax/Dark Rax, and other lesser used troops in your lab and the spells; Heal, Rage, Thor, Jump..etc
As far as Defensive upgrades, I recommend the following course:
Do a cycle of the following upgrades, 1 Mortar to max. 1 Wiz Tower to max, one A/Def to max, build 2nd X-Bow, start on Teslas. Those would be my priority builds. if you cant save up to get them to max, then use this as a cycle to keep them around the same level. Work on walls in between the longer builds.. those wooden walls get them to lvl 4, then to lvl 6. As far as Cannons and ArchTwrs, I kept my cannons at lvl 9 for a while, and Arch Towers at lvl 8 (these one shot lvl 6 archers)
I feel like this type of cycle will get you a good start on protecting your loots better.
Also, farm out your TH, to minimize taking three star losses and getting cleaned out. Put it in a corner or edge of the map FAR away from Defenses, if you have decorations and the white flag place them around it to ensure its not trapped by bombs and teslas. and the snipers will shield you more often IME.
As far as Dark elixir upgrades, again the dark drills will help your collection efforts greatly so get them to level 3-4 asap, and being above 1800 or so trophies (like you are now) since its more readily available to raid there.
Dump it into heros, then into dark troops you use the most, I see hoggies in the camps so you may wanna give them some lab time over Minions if you don’t use Minions.
Get your heros to level 5 so they get their powers, they begin to help a lot in farming and cupping efforts when they get to higherlevels..
Keep posting in this thread so we can keep helping you out.
If I get time this wknd, Ill swing by your clan for a visit and offer some more advise.
Good luck Meggieboo:o
