I learned a lesson on a night of liquidation: truly successful traders don’t rely on predictions to make a living. What do they rely on? Three ironclad rules. Behind each is the cost of real gold and silver.

**First: Lock in profits immediately.**

Don’t delude yourself into selling at the top. When $BTC rises 10%, move your stop-loss to your break-even point; at 20%, hold on to at least 10% profit; at 30%, that 15% bottom line is your life line. Real profits should be pocketed; that’s your money. Ever feel like your profit vanishes from 100 to zero in an instant? One experience is enough.

**Second: When losing money, the only thing to do is "cut".**

I’ve set a strict rule for myself: exit unconditionally when losing 15%. Don’t gamble on rebounds, don’t deceive yourself. Stop-loss isn’t giving up—it’s leaving a way out for the next opportunity. Greed and luck are the fastest ways to eat away at your capital. The most realistic part of the contract market is this: your discipline determines your life or death.

**Third: If you "sold too early", give yourself a chance to change your mind.**

If a coin drops back after you sell and you still believe in it, just buy it back. The amount of the coin doesn’t change, but you’ve earned the difference in your pocket. But if it soars forever from now on—never to look back—then let go completely. The market offers opportunities all the time. Repeatedly regretting past mistakes only causes you to miss more.

**The core is simple: you are executing rules, not gambling on luck.**

All successful traders know that winning or losing isn’t about how accurate your predictions are, but how disciplined you are. If you’re always regretting, chasing to "break even", or lost in confusion… it’s not opportunity you lack, but a system that can truly keep you alive.

Tired of being repeatedly harvested by the market? Instead of acting on impulse, replace intuition with rules. From the logic of opening contracts, risk management parameters, to every aspect of trading mentality, building your own system is the way to go. True profit begins the moment you stop chasing volatility and start adhering to your rules.
