Let me share some lessons from trading recently:
Everyone can exchange ideas together and encourage each other.
When trading contracts, you definitely trade the right-side trend.
Because contract positions are usually held for a short time, the right-side trend makes it easier to determine direction.
When trading contracts, you must calculate the risk-reward ratio.
For example, with 100 USDT, if you want to make 10 USDT each time, then your stop loss must be below 5 USDT.
Never, just to make 10 USDT, take a loss of 50 USDT like “absorbing the order” head-on.
When trading contracts, you must raise your win rate (steady style).
Bet with a higher win rate as much as possible.
You don’t need to constantly watch the chart long-term, but you should reduce the number of orders.
When trading contracts, you must not listen to messages or trust KOLs.
All information is reflected in the K-line.
No one can predict the market. If someone gets it right multiple times, it doesn’t mean the next time will be correct. If someone is wrong every time, it doesn’t mean the next time will be wrong.
When trading contracts, you must be ruthless.
Take profit can be a trailing stop, but the stop loss must be a one-time stop.
Hesitation and indecision will make you lose discipline in the contract market.
When trading contracts, you must have a good mindset.
Believe in probability, believe in the market, and don’t be emotional about short-term gains or losses.
Don’t regret selling too early. Don’t be upset when losing money.
When trading contracts, you must trade a market that allows full-on game theory.
Don’t play high-control position sizing—high-control always ends in losing 9 out of 10 times.
When trading contracts, make sure you invest spare money.
Contract trading is part of your funds with high leverage.
Not all of your net worth with high leverage—if all your net worth has high leverage,
there’s always a wave that takes away your assets.
When trading contracts, you must take win and chase after wins.
When you make money, make it aggressively. If you’ve been losing badly recently,
you must stop.
When trading contracts, you must not learn technical chart “K-line” trading, and you must not believe in analysis.
Any technical indicators are just auxiliary. Any confident belief is suicide.
When trading contracts, you must place orders according to your plan.
Don’t change your mind midway—if you change your plan because the K-line slightly pulls back, or because of a big rally that changes your original plan, then short-term contract trades can’t bottom-pick and top-escape; even God can’t do it.
When trading contracts, you must set goals.
After you earn the money set as your goal, you must withdraw it to improve your life.
Improving your life is the real, permanent motivation!!!
Finally, I want to say: contracts are not just pure gambling, but also a better path for small retail traders to grow—especially since the US stock market has increased contracts and expanded the market underlying assets. I hope everyone keeps a calm mindset and earns the money they can earn.
