#FutureTarding trading isn’t a game of luck. It’s a battlefield of discipline, strategy, and emotional control. After 4 years of navigating the volatile waters of the crypto futures market, I’ve developed my personal 4 golden rules that help me protect my capital, stay profitable, and sleep at night. If you’re tired of making emotional trades and watching your balance drain, this article is for you.
Rule #1: The Market Is Wild and Unpredictable — Take Profit Before It Turns on You
The first thing every trader must accept: the market owes you nothing. You can analyze all you want, but in the end — the market is unpredictable.
That perfect pattern you spotted? It can vanish within minutes. Wave structures change. Trendlines break. Candles lie. The market draws what it wants, when it wants.
Key takeaway: It’s better to exit with a small profit than to hold on and exit in loss. Don’t try to prove something to the market — it will humble you. Instead, adapt. Only enter trades you clearly understand, and always have an exit plan. If it doesn’t feel right — don’t force it.
Rule #2: In
#Elliottwave — Wait for the Second Corrective Wave to End
This is a rule I live by. When trading using Elliott Waves, I never enter long on a blind impulse. I wait for the second corrective wave to fully form. Why? Because that’s when you get your edge — your moment of clarity. By then, a confirming green candle usually forms on the 1-hour timeframe, signaling trend reversal.This disciplined entry helps me:
Filter out false setups
Avoid premature tradesGain better entry prices
Protect my capitalPro tip: Patience is power. Let the wave form, catch the third impulse — that’s where the real move begins.
Rule #3: If the Trend Is Weak or Sideways — It’s Still a Correction.
Let’s make this crystal clear: A real
#bullish impulse moves fast. Always. If the coin is crawling, consolidating, or bouncing sideways without strength — it’s likely still in correction. Many traders get trapped here thinking, “This is the bottom.” But unless you see speed and strength in the movement, do not enter. If the price isn’t flying, don’t buy it. Remember: Fast up = impulse. Slow = correction.
Rule #4: Don’t Overstay the Party — Take the Profit and Leave
One of the most expensive lessons in trading is greed.It’s tempting to hold, thinking, “Just a bit more profit…” But the market doesn’t care. Corrections come quick, and when they do — they erase hours of profit in minutes.Instead, I prefer a different approach:
• Aim for 1–1.5% solid profit
• Exit during short-term impulsive spikes
• If needed, re-enter later with a fresh setup
This strategy has saved me countless times. Don’t let greed lock you in — take your gain and walk away. Profit is profit.
