Brothers, there’s a saying I’ve been holding back for a long time: Contracts are the only place where ordinary people can turn their lives around with their brains; they’re also the easiest place to fall into hell.
I’ve truly seen too many newcomers—carrying a few hundred or a few thousand U, with a dream of “doubling and leaving,” rushing in. In the end: three days of passion, two days of confusion, one day of liquidation, and finally your emotions collapse even faster than your account.
But I’m not just talking while standing.
Back then, I also built myself up in the market from 8,000 yuan.
Honestly, during that time, there were several times I was only one small bearish candle away from liquidation.
My phone was in my hand, and my palms were drenched in sweat.
But I ultimately made it through—and I kept getting steadier as I went.
Why?
It’s not because I’m smart, and it’s not because I have good luck.
It’s because, during that period, I finally figured out one thing: Contracts don’t kill people—only messy trading does.
Later on, I才 realized that the so-called “liquidation” has never been an accident; it’s inevitable.
Most people think they’re steady, but in reality they’re just dying a little slower.
I’ve seen too many brothers placing orders based on feelings, adding positions out of spite, and relying on luck for stop-loss.
