Crypto world contract survival guide: How to turn 3000 into over 200,000?



Brothers, I'm not here to flaunt wealth. Money in the crypto world rises like a tide, surging fiercely and receding even faster. Today, let's talk about how to leave the game with money in hand and a smile on our faces.

Two months ago, I entered the market with 3000 bucks, and back then I couldn't even figure out where the leverage button was. Now, there are steadily over 200,000 in my account. This isn't just luck; it's about understanding the principle of "first protect your life, then make money." My approach is actually very simple: I tested the waters with 300 bucks, investing only 30 bucks each time in 100x contracts. That's how 100x leverage works; if the direction is right, a 1% increase can double that 30 bucks. But if the direction is wrong, you could lose everything overnight, so these five life-saving rules must be firmly remembered!

1. Stop loss immediately when wrong, don't pretend not to see.

When I first entered the market, I blew up my positions twice, all because I held onto the fantasy of "just wait a little longer for a rebound". As a result, I got a harsh lesson from the market. Later, I understood that when it reaches the preset stop-loss level, I have to leave quickly without hesitation. In contracts, staying alive is the only chance for the next opportunity; "proving myself right" is not important at all, the real money in the account is what truly matters.

2. If you make five consecutive mistakes, stop and don't stubbornly resist the market.

The market sometimes behaves like a drunken person, swaying around without any logic. At times like this, the more you stubbornly cling on, the more your mindset collapses and the more chaotic your actions become, ultimately leading to greater losses. I set up a "circuit breaker mechanism" for myself: as soon as I get five trades wrong in a row, I immediately shut down my computer and take a break, doing whatever else I need to do. By the next day, when my mind is clear, the market has likely moved out of its chaotic phase, and I can make my move at a different time, which actually increases my chances of winning.

3. Withdraw 3000 immediately, don't be greedy for floating profits.

The profit figures in the account are all虚, and the market can turn faster than flipping a book, swallowing profits in a minute. I set a strict rule for myself: every time I earn enough to reach 3000, I will transfer at least half to a safe place. Only the money secured is a real win; no matter how good the numbers look, if it hasn't reached my pocket, it doesn't count.

4. Only trade in one-sided markets, during consolidation periods just "lie flat"

When the trend is clear, 100x leverage can help amplify your profits; but during a sideways market, leverage becomes a scythe for harvesting, cutting through stop losses back and forth, leading to losses no matter how you operate. So now I only open positions when the market has a direction (like a one-sided rise or fall); if the market has no direction, I'd rather stare blankly at the K-line than impulsively place an order—random operations are worse than not operating at all, at least you won't lose money for nothing.

5. The position should not exceed 10% of the principal; a light position is the real confidence.

Never go all in like a gambler; keeping a light position allows you to calmly respond when the market is volatile. Going all in is like piling up ten plates at a buffet; you may enjoy the first few plates, but the last one could lead to you "losing" in the end, making it not worth it. Keep your position within 10% of your capital, and even if you make a mistake, you can cut your losses in time without going "to zero" due to a single error.

Don't wait until the contract has lost everything to remember these words! Follow me, and let's slowly turn small money into big money together. Remember: only by walking steadily can we laugh until the end in the crypto world!
