At 3 a.m., a brother sent me a message:


“20k USDT, 50x leverage, a drawdown of 1.7%, and it’s gone.”$ETH
After I looked at his trading records, I found a problem:
This liquidation was really not because the market was too vicious.
It was because the position was already out of control.
Many people lose money, not because they got the direction wrong.
But because they went in too heavy—once the market moves slightly against them, they don’t even get a chance to adjust.
After trading for so long, I’ve always stuck to only three bottom lines:
First, control your position.
Don’t think about turning it around with a single trade—the heavier the position, the greater the psychological pressure.
Leave room for the market, and also leave yourself a way out.
Second, strict stop-loss.
There’s no 100% win rate in trading—getting it wrong is normal.
Cut a small loss in time, and don’t let one mistake turn into a fatal blow.
Third, only trade trends.
If there’s no clear opportunity, wait.
If you can’t understand the market, don’t participate.
Money isn’t made by trading every day.
It’s made by catching certain, definite opportunities.
In the futures market, it’s never about who makes the most profit from one single trade.
It’s about who can stay in the game after countless rounds of volatility.
Lasting long is what earns you the right to wait for the next opportunity.
