In the world of contracts, some people flip their accounts in March; others see the grim reaper in just three days.

My first experience with contracts was when my account balance was only 8,000 USDT. Back then, I was young and reckless, thinking I understood the market trend. Without hesitation, I opened a 100x leverage long position. The result? A small market correction within fifteen minutes, and half of my position was wiped out instantly. I remember that afternoon was very dark, staring at the fluctuating numbers on the screen, feeling drained as if all energy had been pulled out of me, forgetting to breathe.

After that, I realized: liquidation isn't bad luck; it's a graduation exam prepared by the market for every newbie.

Later, I gradually figured out a few principles—don't expect to get rich overnight, and don't let impulsiveness override rationality. Contracts are not about gambling on luck; they're about controlling your own hands better.

Many of my friends, after making a few profits, got cocky, thinking they had unlocked the secret to wealth. But within a week, they blew up three times; others lost so much they turned red and stayed up until 3 a.m. reviewing their trades, only to be worn down by anxiety. These people all overlooked one truth: the best traders spend most of their time observing.

My current rhythm is 70% of the time in idle position waiting for opportunities, and 30% focusing all-in. Once a wave is fully exploited, I exit.

Last year, there was a classic case where I used the BOLL channel to catch the SOL market trend. While others were staring at individual candlesticks trying to guess rise or fall, I only followed one logic—narrowing channels indicate market consolidation; a volume breakout is a signal. I built positions near the lower band in batches, set stop-losses below the previous low, and in three weeks, my account multiplied thirtyfold.

It's not some magic trick; it's just strict discipline in execution.

Now I’ve set three strict rules for myself—though they are a bit blunt, they definitely save lives:
1. Limit single-loss to within 2% of total capital;
2. No more than two trades per day to avoid chaos;
3. When floating profit reaches 50%, set a breakeven take-profit to lock in gains.

The market isn't short of people willing to fight; what’s lacking are those who can survive until the end.

If you’re still placing orders based on feelings or chasing the market up and down, take a moment to think: to make big money, you first need to learn not to lose all your principal.

I’ve laid out the methods—whether you want to pick them up is up to you.
