Trading contracts has never been about luck or talent. I've seen too many people get rich quickly only to have their accounts wiped out, cycling through this repeatedly. Those who can truly stand firm in the market never rely on a stroke of luck once or twice; instead, they embed trading discipline into their bones.
I've also experienced days when the market repeatedly crushed me. Now, being able to profit steadily relies on these trading rules.
First, always halve your position size. The market is always there, but your capital only has one chance. What we can control is not the market's ups and downs, but our own risk exposure.
Second, if you make two consecutive mistakes on the same coin, you must stop trading. This isn't about not understanding the market, but about emotional control being lost. After consecutive errors, either switch to a different coin or take a break—never force it.
No stop-loss, no trading. Even if you are confident, set your defenses. Those who are reluctant to take small losses often end up losing all their capital.
Never trade in a chaotic market. When the structure is messy, volume is low, and sentiment is scattered, entering only wastes time and capital, as you won't be able to hold your position.
Don't envy others' trades. Watching others profit easily can disrupt your rhythm. Only by sticking to your trading plan can you go far.
Don't treat trading like clocking in at work. When there are no good opportunities, holding a vacant position is the best self-protection. Many people lose money precisely because they enter the market without a reason.
Never add to a losing position. When losing, keep your position small and observe or rest. Rushing to add positions to recover losses will only make you lose faster and harder.
If you don't understand the market structure, don't do short-term trading. Short-term trading isn't about courage; it's about rhythm. If the rhythm is off, even the correct direction is useless.
Don't force opportunities to enter. Don't desperately look for entry points; patiently wait for opportunities to appear naturally. True opportunities are never just once.
Finally, during a review, you must write down three things: why you entered, why you exited, and what regrets you have. The depth of your review directly determines how far you can go in the market.
This market isn't short of hardworking people or opportunities; what it lacks most are those who can stay steady amidst the waves. Blindly rushing in will eventually lead to a crash. But if someone leads with rhythm and plans together, things will be different. If you truly want to change your situation, it's better to establish your own trading system early and seize the upcoming market opportunities together.
