Is blaming luck after a contract liquidation just excuses? Stop kidding yourself.

After being in this circle for a while, you realize that most liquidations are self-inflicted—full margin all-in, holding onto losing positions stubbornly, fighting against the trend.

I once knew a friend whose account dropped from hundreds of thousands of U to just over a thousand U. During that time, she was completely confused, couldn't sleep at night, and her heart would race whenever the price jumped. She wanted to quit but couldn't swallow her pride; if she kept playing, she couldn't even find the right direction.

Later, she came to me. I didn't give her any fancy theories, just four basic rules:

**1. Focus on one mainstream coin.** Don’t chase the latest hot coin every day; spreading your attention only leads to confusion and poor judgment.

**2. Keep leverage within 20x.** Greed is the biggest enemy of your account. Staying steady is more important than anything.

**3. Always keep half of your position to handle volatility.** The market can turn suddenly, and you need a backup plan.

**4. Exit when it’s time, cut losses when needed.** Take profits quickly, and don’t hesitate to cut losses—dragging it out only makes things worse.

She followed these rules.

After half a month, her account grew from over a thousand U to tens of thousands U. The progress was slow, but her mindset became stable—no more impulsive moves, no stubborn holding, no illusions of overnight success. She finally understood one thing: **Surviving in this market is far more important than making a quick fortune.**

Later, she started to roll her positions. The principles remained the same, but her position management became more flexible: keep adding when profitable, reduce to baseline when losing, gradually increasing her holdings. While others chase the dream of doubling in an hour, she steadily gains a few points every day. These small gains may seem insignificant, but the accumulated energy is astonishing.

Two months later, her account grew from over 30,000 U to hundreds of thousands U.

By then, she no longer needed me to watch over her. She would withdraw some money weekly, keep her principal intact, and her living expenses were fully covered. Life became much easier.

Others might think she’s lucky. But in reality, there’s no such thing as luck. She simply did what most people can’t—**stay calm, follow the trend, avoid illusions, and stick to her bottom line.**

Turning around in this circle isn’t that mysterious. It’s not about talent or courage; it’s about whether you can master simple things to perfection. The rules are there; whether you can follow through is the key.
