When engaging in contract trading, the most important thing is to understand the trend clearly and then adjust your strategy accordingly. Contrarian thinking also has its merits, but the prerequisite is a solid foundation.
So how exactly should you operate? First, avoid chasing frequent trades, and don't open long and short positions on the same coin simultaneously, as this can lead to self-conflict. Be cautious when building positions; keep each single position below 5% to allow room for adding or averaging down.
Timing for adding positions is crucial and depends on the performance of support and resistance levels. If the price breaks below a key support, stop-loss is necessary—don't think about reversing the trend; having the courage to cut losses is very important. Conversely, learn to wait; when you are out of the market, it’s a time to accumulate strength, and wait for the perfect buy point to enter aggressively. It’s better to miss out than to throw money in recklessly.
After each trade, review and analyze what went right and what can be improved. Proper use of technical indicators can help you detect subtle market changes; signals of rebounds and pullbacks are usually detectable in advance. Continuously refine your trading habits, stay calm and patient—these are the long-term survival rules in the crypto space. Keep at it, and consistent profits are entirely achievable. Come on, everyone, let’s move towards financial freedom together in 2026!

5% position is really too conservative; with my risk tolerance, I would have gone all-in long ago...
