In the leveraged market, as long as you have the habit of holding positions, the outcome will undoubtedly lead to a blow-up (loss), it's just a matter of time, regardless of how light your position is!

To change this habit, you must strictly adhere to your trading system every day. The trading system can be refined, and trading skills can be improved, all of which will naturally enhance with the increase in trading time. Only through self-discipline can you retain the possibility of success and ensure a higher probability of winning big while losing small. No matter how powerful a trading system is, it requires discipline to function effectively; otherwise, it all amounts to nothing in the end. Trading is essentially a probabilistic event, where making profits becomes a high-probability event and losses become a low-probability occurrence, that's all there is to it.

So how can we avoid holding positions? A simple method is to set stop-loss orders upon entering a trade. After setting the stop-loss, do not manually widen it. Generally, when entering a trade, the stop-loss is set at certain key levels; if these key levels are breached, it indicates that the direction of entry is likely to be wrong, making it reasonable to exit the position at the stop-loss.

Moreover, try to avoid contrarian trades as much as possible. For instance, in an uptrend, when it reaches a key resistance level, it may encounter resistance and pull back, but it could also break through directly. When reaching a key resistance level, many people have the habit of shorting, expecting a pullback at the resistance; if this trade can't be executed in time, it can easily turn into a holding position or even lead to adding to a losing position.

Therefore, try to avoid contrarian trades; when reaching key levels, it's more appropriate to exit previous trend-following positions and observe the market. Because in contrarian trading, you never know if the trend will continue, and if it does, no one knows where it will stop.
