If you're still losing now, you might as well stop and ask yourself a question: Do you really understand this trade, or are you just afraid of missing out, unwilling to accept defeat, and wanting to take a gamble?
Many people lose money in contracts, not because the market doesn't give opportunities, but because their operations lack method. One moment they're saying to follow the trend, and the next second they're trying to catch the bottom; they just mentioned setting stop losses, and then they hold onto their positions; opening positions is all based on feelings, and blowing up their accounts feels like a routine process.
I used to be like that, messing around, being emotional, and ended up with my account repeatedly going to zero. Later, I only focused on one thing - building my own system and then sticking to it.
I only trade mainstream coins, BTC and ETH, and I don't touch others.
Because these coins have enough volatility, but not absurd, the technical charts are clear, and the traces of trading are not that heavy.
How to determine the direction? Once I open the four-hour chart, if it can't hold above MA60, I continue to short. If three candlesticks can't go up, don't fantasize about a bullish breakout.
Entering the market relies entirely on rhythm: divide into three batches, don't rush to finish it all at once. If the market really shows movement, there will be plenty of opportunities to add positions.
Set stop losses below key support; if the market really breaks, get out without looking back. Always pull the profit-loss ratio, starting with at least four times; if you lose 100, you can't just aim to make 150, avoid such trades.
If the market is unclear, I’ll stay out. I'd rather wait three days than engage in anything I'm not confident about.
I never leave positions open overnight, nor do I operate on weekends. It's not that I'm afraid of missing out; I just don't want to be a test subject when the market makers are testing liquidity.
Before every trade I make, I always go through the system logic: Is the structure there? Is the signal clear? Where is the risk position?
If these points don't align, then I don't act. Even if I don't open a single trade today, my account won't lose value.
Because I know that most people lose not because they can't analyze but because they always want to do something.
Real stable contract trading doesn't rely on frequency or enthusiasm but on the calmness and patience of executing a system.
The market has opportunities every day, but you can't catch them every day. When you always want to do something, often that's the time you should be staying out.
Don't look at others making huge profits and feel itchy; first, clarify your own trading logic before talking about making money.
You must survive first to qualify for discussing recovery.
What you lack is not effort, nor opportunity, but someone who can help you achieve stable profits in this market.
