In the crypto world, those who turn the tide with contracts are often not gambling on luck, but strictly adhering to discipline.

I climbed out of a loss abyss of 2000U and eventually reached 160,000U. The turning point wasn't some magical secret, but learning how to survive longer. At first, I also had a gambler's mentality until I experienced several margin calls and realized: the essence of contracts is a psychological battle, not a prediction game.

The most crucial changes come from these 5 rules:

1️⃣ Always set a stop-loss before entering a position; never hold onto a losing trade
2️⃣ Stop trading immediately after 3 consecutive losses; clear your mind of emotions
3️⃣ Take out half of your profits every time you earn 2000U; don’t expect prices to keep rising forever
4️⃣ Only trade assets with clear trends (like BTC, ETH); during sideways markets, just watch the show
5️⃣ Keep each position within 10% of your total funds

Divide 2000U into 10 parts, each 200U, with leverage no more than 20~30x — sounds conservative, but this approach actually makes you more stable over time. The difference between experts and rookies isn’t how accurately they can predict, but how many mistakes they make.

I've seen too many people try to turn things around overnight with 100x leverage, only to become market "cannon fodder." High leverage is like a money shredder; only discipline can protect you. If you get the direction right, you can earn dozens of points, but one wrong judgment can wipe out all your previous profits, or even cause losses.

Assets like LTC, SOL have high volatility and many opportunities, but beginners should start practicing with mainstream coins first for more stability. The market is always there every day, don’t rush to make a big move. Learning to survive is the key to eventually making profits.
