Brothers, let me state this first: I’m not here to show off. The money in the cryptocurrency market comes quickly and goes even faster, more frequently than discounts at a milk tea shop. Today, I’m going to share my heartfelt thoughts with you on how to play contracts and walk away with money and a smile.

Three months ago, I cautiously entered the market with 3000U, not even knowing where the leverage button was. And now? There’s a stable amount of over 100,000 U in my account. It’s not due to luck or divine intervention; it’s purely because — I know how to play smart and protect my capital.

My strategy is simple and straightforward: I started by testing the waters with 300U, only risking 30U on 100x contracts each time. What does 100x leverage mean? If you’re right about the direction, a 1% increase can double your money; if you’re wrong, be prepared for significant losses. So, if you want to last longer, you must memorize these five “rules for survival”:

① Cut losses immediately when wrong; don’t play dead.

When I first entered the market, I blew my account twice simply because I thought the market would rebound. What happened? I got slapped by the market. Later, I set the rule: leave when you hit the stop-loss, whether the market turns or not has nothing to do with me. Remember — proving yourself right? Useless. Staying alive is what counts.

② If you’re wrong five times in a row, don’t struggle.

Sometimes the market behaves like someone who’s drunk, completely going off course. If you stubbornly hold on, your mindset will explode in minutes. I directly set a circuit breaker: if I make five wrong trades in a day, I immediately shut down and watch a show, take a shower, and sleep. The next day, when I open my eyes, the pit is gone.

③ Once you earn 3000U, withdraw immediately.

Never get complacent; the numbers in your account are illusions. The market can swallow them at any moment. I set a strict rule for myself: every time I earn 3000U, I withdraw at least half. Taking profits is the real win.

④ Only trade in one direction; play dead during sideways movements.

When a trend emerges, 100x leverage can take you flying. But if the market is moving sideways, it’s like a harvesting scythe. When the market lacks direction, it’s better to lie flat and do nothing than to make random trades.

⑤ Don’t let your position exceed 10% of your capital.

Don’t go all in; that’s what gamblers do. Keep your position light, and even if the market gets chaotic, you can respond calmly. Simply put, going all in is like binge-eating at a buffet — the tenth plate could land you in the hospital.

Now, my mindset when watching the market is like walking a cat: no rush, no anxiety, just follow the rules. Getting rich is a matter of probability, but staying alive is a must-answer question.
