#加密生态动态追踪 Many people think that as long as they choose the right direction in contracts, they can just relax and win. I'll tell you directly—this idea is too naive.

When I first entered the contract market, I lost 730,000 in just six months. Ironically, I was always right about the direction of those trades, yet I still ended up losing everything.

Later, after reviewing the settlement records, I realized that I didn't lose to the market itself, but to the tricks played by the manipulators.

**The First Trap: Rushing to open positions.**
As soon as the candlestick moves, I want to act immediately; when I see a breakout, I throw everything in. Then I get whipped out by a quick spike. This kind of entering and exiting, along with the fees, wipes out profits.

**The Second Trap: Setting stop-losses too tight.**
Many people like to set their stops at 3% or 5% and stick to them, but the volatility in the contract market can be ten times that. That small margin is basically a free lunch in the eyes of the manipulators. I was swept out three times by "false breakouts," watching the market go straight in the direction I predicted while I was already kicked out. Only then did I realize—stop-loss isn’t a fixed number; it needs to be dynamically adjusted with volatility, not based on emotion or stubbornness.

**The Third Trap: Going all-in with a single position.**
Putting your entire holdings into one trade is like betting your whole account on the market. Even if the direction is correct, a few reverse candles can wipe out your account. When I saw my balance drop to zero during a margin call, I was completely stunned.

Having lost enough, I set three strict rules for myself:
- Never go all-in; split your position into three parts
- Adjust stop-losses according to volatility, don’t fixate on one number
- If you don't understand the market clearly, stay out; being idle is also a form of position management

After following these rules, from a cycle of margin calls to steady profitability, my account tripled in one year.

In the crypto world, those who survive and profit are not the ones who just pick the right market direction, but those who last the longest. As long as you are alive, there’s still a chance; once you die, it’s truly over.
