Rolling from 1000U to 10,000U, the advanced path of contract trading has never relied on luck — the real key is to intertwine 'focusing on targets + quantifying discipline' into one strand.

Don't think that 10x returns rely on aggressively increasing leverage. High leverage is like wielding a sharp knife; discipline is the hand that holds the knife. If the hand is unsteady, the sharper the knife, the easier it is to hurt oneself. The moment you violate discipline, the outcome of a liquidation is already written.

First stage: Roll from 1000U to 3000U, using high-frequency sniping to solidify the foundation.

In the beginning, I have to rely on small fluctuations to practice my feel and engrave discipline into muscle memory.

The core goal is clear: to accumulate confidence with stable small profits, making 'trading by the rules' a reflex.

I only recognize ETH as the target. After testing over 20 cryptocurrencies, I found that it has deep liquidity and relatively stable volatility, reducing the sudden spike risk by 80% compared to altcoins. Focus on trading in the 4-hour cycle, where K-line patterns and trading volume signals are clear, and short-term opportunities are easily captured.

Timing is crucial: 10 minutes before the daily 4-hour closing, this is when the bullish and bearish discrepancies are most intense, and the direction often reveals itself.

I set three strict rules for myself during trading:

  • Keep the position firmly at 20%, and make sure to note the ratio in my memo before opening a position, fearing a slip of the hand might lead to over-leveraging;

  • Gradually reduce leverage from 200x to 50-100x (newbies are advised to reduce leverage first; surviving is more important than anything else);

  • Enter long at support and short at resistance, immediately take profit after earning 10 points (20-30U per trade, accumulating little by little).

When the trend is clear, I will add positions according to Fibonacci retracement, but there is a strict prerequisite: the initial position must already be profitable, and I will never add positions to rescue losses.

Make 2-3 effective trades daily, steadily rolling to 3000U in 10-14 days; it isn’t difficult, the challenge is to resist the urge to act recklessly.

Second stage: Sprint from 3000U to 10,000U, focusing on high certainty opportunities for heavy trades.

At this time, I need to hold back my temperament, do less but do it precisely, and capture those higher probability swings.

Focus only on two golden windows every day:

  • One hour before and after the US stock market opens (the capital flow is the strongest, and ETH often moves along);

  • When the ETH on-chain data updates (for example, staking volume, sudden changes in Gas fees, which can easily indicate direction).

The position remains unchanged at 20%, but leverage must be reduced to 50x. With more capital, risk control must be stricter; do not let a single mistake wipe out the gains.

The key is to focus on a single direction: if the 4-hour moving average is bullish, only go long; if bearish, only go short. Don't fantasize about 'eating both sides'; I have tried opening positions on both sides, but ended up hitting stop losses on both. Later I understood that greed is the greatest risk.

When a single profit stabilizes at 100-150U, reaching 3000U to 10,000U can actually happen quickly, within 2-3 weeks is enough.

Third stage: After reaching 10,000U, use isolation strategy to protect the gains.

Once the account exceeds 10,000U, first transfer 8000U to spot or stablecoins; only seeing the receipt SMS feels secure — realized profits are truly yours.

The remaining 2000U is divided into separate operations, essentially giving the capital double insurance:

  • Reduce leverage to 20x for 1000U, focusing on daily level swings, setting profit targets at 5-8 points, and rolling slowly with high win rates;

  • Additionally, use 1000U for short-term trading, but it must be operated separately on two exchanges: one specifically for short-term trading, and one for holding backup positions. During last year's extreme market conditions, my short-term position got wiped out, but the backup position was preserved, which helped me avoid a chain reaction.

If you are still struggling with how to control positions and adjust leverage, feel free to chat with me. I have organized the operations of the three stages into a mind map, clearly outlining when to add positions and how to set profit targets.
