In the crypto world, money comes in like a flood and leaves just as quickly, terrifyingly fast. I managed to turn 3,000U into 280,000U, honestly, not relying on luck but strictly following five bottom-line rules that you must not break, combined with a cautious trading rhythm, gradually accumulating.
Contracts are like a double-edged sword; used well, they can take you to the top of the mountain, but used improperly, they can leave you stepping into the void. My approach always emphasizes one word: ruthlessness. Disperse your principal, split 3,000U into ten parts, and only use 30U each time to open a 100x leverage position. If your market judgment is correct, just one point can double your account; if wrong, turn around and walk away—no entangling, no soft-heartedness, just cut losses and exit. Only then can you survive long enough in this decisive and ruthless market.
**First Bottom Line: No Excuses for Stop-Loss**. Set your stop-loss point before entering, and close all positions when hit. Don’t hope for miraculous rebounds; the market won’t give opportunities to the indecisive. Cutting losses is painful, but preserving your remaining principal is the real chip to continue fighting—better than losing everything and being completely out.
**Second Bottom Line: Stop Trading After Five Consecutive Losses**. Once you hit five consecutive stop-losses, trigger a circuit breaker—immediately stop all trading, shut down the software, and calm down. When the market is chaotic, forcing trades is like recharging the market’s energy. Wait until the trend is clear and your mindset is adjusted before re-entering.
**Third Bottom Line: Take Profits Off the Table**. Floating profits are illusions—they can vanish in an instant. As long as there’s at least 3,000U profit in the account, I will withdraw at least half of it. That’s real wealth belonging to me. No matter how good the unrealized gains look, they’re useless if a reversal happens—they’ll disappear in an instant.
**Fourth Bottom Line: Only Chase Strong Trends**. 100x leverage in a trending market is a harvesting machine, but in choppy consolidation, it’s a meat grinder. When you’re unsure of the direction, staying in cash and waiting is wiser than shooting blindly, saving your principal from unnecessary loss.
**Fifth Bottom Line: Always Have a Position Cap**. Never open a position exceeding 10% of your total principal, always stick to a scale of 30U per lot. You can afford to lose, which makes winning possible. Small positions keep your mind clear, enable precise execution, and leave room for adding more later.
Contract trading is not about luck; it’s about discipline. Regretting at the moment of liquidation is too late. Instead of gambling on probabilities, stick to discipline. Following these five rules will help you survive long enough in the crypto world.

It sounds good, but how many actually do it? I've seen too many people talk about discipline but act wildly.
Five consecutive stop-losses and then staying calm? I think most people break down by the second time.
The bottom line is, when making money, it's all just worthless paper; only when losing money do they regret it.

It sounds good, but how many people can really stick to these five rules? I think most people are still sleepwalking with 100x leverage.
Anyway, I believe it. Next time I lose, I'll just close the software to avoid continuing to lose.
This set of theories sounds smooth, but it's too difficult to implement. Human nature is the hardest obstacle to overcome.
Talking about stop-loss is easy, but when it comes to actually cutting losses, everyone wants to gamble on a rebound, including me.
I agree with the point about light positions; at least you won't be completely out after one trade, but the prerequisite is really having discipline.

That's right, discipline is the key to survival. But I see many people talking nicely, yet as soon as the market fluctuates, they forget everything, their fingers trembling nonstop—that's the most heartbreaking part.

280,000 USDT sounds great, but the real tough ones are those who have never爆过
---
Stop-loss is a psychological barrier; most people die at the moment they can't bear to cut losses
---
Trading with a small position has really saved me many times; those with heavy positions just lost everything
---
The five bottom lines are correct, but 99% of people can't even守住 the first one
---
The phrase "waiting in cash" hit home; I previously lost profits because I couldn't sit still
---
Listening to "30U per trade" sounds conservative, but looking at others' accounts that haven't爆过, this logic makes sense
---
Five consecutive stop-losses trigger a circuit breaker; this防线 is quite well set
---
I agree with the rule of withdrawing half; how many people with 3 million in their account end up unable to withdraw a penny
---
100x leverage is indeed a harvesting tool; it all depends on the market conditions it is used in
---
Those who can survive in the crypto world for so long are disciplined; good luck won't last more than three months
