#美联储联邦公开市场委员会决议 💡 To keep generating continuous income from U, rather than spending every day busy "earning U."
What are the biggest fears when trading contracts? Lack of discipline. Today I’ve summarized three most practical trading rules, hoping they will be helpful to everyone.
**Rule 1: Ensure the profits are protected**
When you buy a coin and it rises more than 10%, start to be cautious.
If it drops back to the purchase price later, sell immediately to take profit—don’t hesitate. Profit is profit; only when you lock in gains does it count.
Made 20%? Set a rule for yourself—no matter what, at least retain 10% profit before selling. Made 30%? The bottom line is to protect at least 15%. This approach may seem conservative, but it actually allows profits to grow through compound interest. Even if your timing at high points is only average, this principle can help your account grow steadily.
**Rule 2: Be brave to cut losses**
Once you enter a position and it drops 15%, don’t listen to any excuses—exit immediately and stop loss.
Don’t deceive yourself with "it will rebound," and don’t fight against it. Even if it does rise back later, there’s no regret—because the entry point was wrong from the start, and stopping loss is the correct action.
Strict rule: Before placing each trade, set the stop-loss level beforehand. Controlling losses within an acceptable range is the foundation of making money. Only those who can afford to lose can truly win.
**Rule 3: If the price continues to fall after selling, buy back at the original price**
If you’ve sold a coin and it continues to decline, but you still believe in the trend, buy back the same amount at a lower price.
What are the benefits of this? The position size remains unchanged, but the profit from the previous sale becomes additional principal—like earning an extra spread beyond transaction fees.
Conversely, if after selling the price doesn’t fall much but instead starts rising, just buy back to avoid missing out. Paying a bit more in fees is not a problem; the key is not to watch profits slip away through your fingers.
Use this together with stop-loss strategies for better results: buy back when the price rebounds to the original level, and exit if it breaks below a key support level. After a few cycles, if you notice the price repeatedly hitting a certain range, it’s probably a sign that something’s off—time to change your approach.
**In summary**
Short-term trading isn’t about reckless rushing; it requires principles and strategies. Quick in and out isn’t impatience; taking profits when the moment is right isn’t a lack of courage; sitting out isn’t cowardice. Skilled traders don’t obsess over bottom fishing or top selling—they steadily take the most comfortable profits from the middle swings.
Market opportunities will ultimately favor those who have a plan and follow disciplined execution. Going it alone makes you easily swayed by emotions; finding the right direction and sticking to the right mindset is more important. The roadmap is already laid out—now it’s up to you whether you can keep walking it.

That's right, but too many people can't do these three things.

The way stop-loss is handled is truly excellent. So many people end up losing money because of the phrase "It will definitely rebound."

That's right, stop-loss is truly a life-and-death line; so many people end up losing because they can't let go of those two words.

This theory looks comfortable, but I want to see the on-chain address flows of these "disciplined traders"... Nine out of ten are extremely concentrated in funds, essentially still playing the pump-up rhythm of the casino.
