Trading contracts over these years, I’ve realized a principle: most people lose money not because they can’t read the charts, but because they are too smart and too greedy. Indicators fill the screen, frequent trades, staying up late watching the charts—ultimately, their mentality collapses, and their accounts are gone.



On the other hand, those “fools” who simplify trading and strictly follow rules are able to survive in this market and gradually compound their gains.

I’ve always used a minimalist approach, with just a few core rules:
Only use two moving averages: EMA21 and EMA55.
Buy when the golden cross occurs, sell when the death cross occurs, and ignore all other noisy signals.
Overthinking leads to mistakes.

Only look at the four-hour cycle.
There’s too much noise in short-term fluctuations; focus on the larger cycle, stay out of the market during choppy periods, and wait.
Don’t bet on direction; only trade when the trend is clear.

Place stop-loss orders at the high or low of the previous 4H candlestick.
Keep single trade losses within 5% of total capital.
Holding onto a losing position is the root of liquidation; when it hits, exit immediately—no attachment.
Start with only 10% of your capital; add to positions gradually as profits come in.
If the trend remains, hold on; if a reversal occurs, exit immediately.
Don’t chase the last drop; only eat the fish in the middle. $RE

The only trading mentality is: better to miss out than make mistakes.
1-2 trades per day are enough; impulsively opening trades leads to losses.
There are no shortcuts in contracts—trust the system, follow discipline.
Simplify the market, eliminate emotions, and even ordinary people can slowly turn things around.
