1. Core Mindset: Survival is the Primary Goal

1. Respect the market, give up the fantasy of getting rich quickly

The essence of the contract market is a zero-sum game. You may profit in the short term due to luck, but long-term survival depends on rationality. Never think of yourself as the 'chosen one'; the market is always more complex than your understanding. A mentality of getting rich quickly can lead to over-leveraging and frequent trading, ultimately being consumed by volatility.

2. Accepting losses as an inevitable cost:

Losses are part of trading; no one can achieve a 100% win rate. The key is to control losses within an acceptable range through stop-loss rules, avoiding catastrophic hits from a single mistake. Treat losses as tuition, not shame.

2. Emotional Management: Combatting Human Weaknesses

1. Balancing Fear and Greed

Fear: Not daring to enter when prices drop, and fearing missed opportunities (FOMO) during rebounds, easily leading to chasing highs and cutting losses.

Greed: Unwilling to take profits when in the green, always wanting to 'catch the whole fish', ultimately turning gains into losses.

Countermeasure: Replace emotions with rules, establish a trading plan in advance (when to enter, stop-loss, take-profit), and execute with machine-like coldness.

2. Refuse 'revenge trading'

Rushing to recover losses after a setback is the trigger for most people's liquidation. At this time, it is necessary to force a pause in trading, review mistakes, rather than 'betting back' with a larger position.

3. Avoid excessive confidence

Continuous profits can easily lead to overestimating one's abilities and neglecting risks. Remember: the market can reverse at any time; past victories do not guarantee future success.

3. Strategy Discipline: Using Systems to Combat Uncertainty

1. Position management is paramount

No single trade position should exceed 2%-5% of the principal (adjust based on risk tolerance).

Never add to a 'losing position'; decisively cut losses when floating losses exceed the plan.

Leverage is a double-edged sword; beginners are advised to start with low leverage (e.g., 3-5 times).

2. Only trade markets you understand

Market opportunities are infinite, but you may only have 1-2 patterns that suit you (e.g., trend breakouts, pullback reversals). Focus on the patterns you excel in and ignore the 'noise' in complex fluctuations.

3. Record and review

Daily record trading logs: analyze entry and exit logic, emotional fluctuations, and execution deviations.

Regularly calculate win rates and profit-loss ratios to optimize strategy weaknesses.

4. Cognitive Enhancement: Continuously Evolving Traders

1. Understand the essence of the market

The contract market is a battlefield of capital competition and emotional resonance. While learning technical analysis, also study market psychology (e.g., long-short positions, liquidation points) to find opportunities in group behavior.

2. Maintain openness and humility

The market is always changing; past strategies may become ineffective. Continuously learn new tools (e.g., options hedging), new logic (e.g., the impact of macroeconomics on assets), and avoid stagnation.

3. Distinguish between 'luck' and 'skill'

A single success may be due to luck; long-term stable profits are a sign of skill. Beware of survivor bias and do not blindly imitate others' 'myths'.

5. Ultimate Insight: Trading is a Process of Mental Cultivation

Contracts are not gambling but a probability game: use rules to capture high-probability opportunities, accept small losses, and embrace large gains.

The greatest enemy is oneself: 90% of failures stem from a collapse in mindset, not a lack of technical skill.

Balance trading with life: avoid becoming obsessed with market conditions, and maintain a healthy routine. Life outside the market is the foundation that supports your calm decision-making.

Conclusion:

Trading contracts is like walking a tightrope, requiring extreme calmness and discipline. True experts are not fortune-tellers predicting market movements, but craftsmen managing risks. If you cannot master your mindset, even the best strategy will become a tool for gambling. Remember: the market never closes, but your capital may only have one chance.
