In the crypto world, to trade contracts and survive steadily, there is only one core principle: choose good coins and be a good person.

This may sound like motivational talk, but it’s not. I only realized after liquidating my positions three times that which coins you choose determines whether you can survive; how you conduct yourself determines how long you can last. $STO
First, let’s talk about choosing coins. I’ve seen too many people who only pick those small-cap coins with a market cap of a few million, hoping for big swings and quick gains. But what happens? When a whale drops a single needle, you have no time to react, and your account is wiped out instantly. I’m not saying small coins can’t be played, but if you want to survive steadily, put your core holdings in mainstream coins first. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana—these have liquidity, deep funds, and global players watching. When you open a position, at least you don’t have to worry about the project team running away tomorrow.
Next, being a good person. In the crypto space, being a good person doesn’t mean never criticizing others; it means following the rules. Don’t be greedy, don’t hold onto positions recklessly, don’t gamble. Before you open a trade, ask yourself: if I lose this trade, am I willing to accept it? Have I set a stop-loss? Is my position size appropriate? If you can’t answer these three questions, don’t make a move.
I have a fan who followed me into contract trading last year. At first, he was chasing rallies and selling on dips, and he blew up twice. Later, I told him to only trade ETH, only do four-hour level retracements, set stop-losses tightly, and keep his position at 10%. He followed my advice, and in three months, he never blew up his account again and made 50% profit. He said, “I used to think I was fighting the market, but now I realize I was fighting myself.”
