#加密生态动态追踪 Newbies entering the crypto world immediately want to trade contracts, dreaming of a quick turnaround. But what happens? For most people, their first lesson is account zeroed out.
Perpetual contracts may seem easy to get into, but the risks never take a holiday. Many people fall victim to leverage—the higher the multiplier, the faster you die. If you're really going to play, don’t rush to use leverage; starting with low multiples to get a feel for it is the right approach.
The two most important things: First, always set a stop-loss, or a single sharp move can send you back to square one in minutes; second, choose large, stable exchanges—don't chase a few points in lower rates on fly-by-night platforms, because if something goes wrong, no one will take the loss.
Contracts are not a forbidden zone, but only if you learn how to protect yourself. The first step to making money is actually very simple—don't let your account blow up first.

Good grief, another story of an account being wiped out, a classic start. I mean, really, don't go all-in with 5x or 10x leverage right away; you'll be gone in less than three days.

The lesson of account zeroing is the tuition I paid. Now watching newcomers still want to take a gamble, I just laugh.

Stop loss really, if you don't set it, just wait to be pierced and beaten violently.
---
The more leverage you open, the faster you die. This is a blood and tears summary.
---
Big exchanges are indeed more expensive, but at least they are still there when liquidation happens. When a scam platform runs away, there's nowhere to cry.
---
Practicing with low leverage is too heartbreaking. No one wants to hear it but must listen.
---
Can you prevent being pierced? Or is it because your stop loss isn't set tight enough?
---
Contracts are really about risking wealth for profit, but most people are seeking wealth only to end up zeroed out.
---
Protecting your account is more important than anything else. This is the hardest lesson to learn.

It's the same story again. Every time, someone refuses to take advice and insists on getting into this muddy water. Contracts are like casinos; before you go in, ask yourself how much you can afford to lose from your pocket.

The lesson of zeroing out your account is really costly; my friend lost 5,000 yuan in one night.

This is this set again, newbies listen. I've seen too many pins explode in seconds, really, the account is cleared in one second... Don't ask me how I know.

Newcomers, really, as soon as they enter the circle, they want to go all in. Statistical significance shows us that the average account lifespan for this group is less than 72 hours(◍•ᴗ•◍)
Don't worry, don't worry. According to the Kelly formula, the correct approach should be—stay alive first, then make money meow.
Stop-loss is easy to say but really hard to do ಥ_ಥ. However, after reviewing historical data, accounts with stop-loss set have a 47 percentage point higher survival rate.
When choosing an exchange, don't skimp on those few cents of fees. The schedule of scam platforms running away is never-ending...
Dollar-cost averaging at low leverage is the survival guide in a bear market. Let's gently keep our accounts safe and we'll win.
Leverage is like caffeine; a slight difference in dosage can turn wakefulness into explosion(´;ω;`)
