Four and a half years ago, I was just an ordinary white-collar worker in an office, working nine to five, with a monthly salary of less than ten thousand. Until contract trading opened a new world, my life trajectory was completely rewritten.

What I want to share today is not a tale of sudden wealth, but the survival philosophy of an ordinary person who rolled $300 into $150,000.

First rule: Survival is more critical than profit.

When I first entered the market, I bet my entire $600 in one go, and within 30 minutes I lost everything. That painful experience taught me the "three-stage capital management":

1/3 for opening positions, 1/3 as reserve funds, and 1/3 always kept outside the account.

In the extreme market conditions last May, I stopped loss four times in a row, and relying on my reserve funds, I seized the opportunity in the fifth trade, achieving a daily profit of 200% of my principal.

This strategy is like a seatbelt, helping me stay grounded during a crash.

Second rule: Execute plans with a machine-like mentality.

In March 2023, when Bitcoin was fluctuating around $27,800, I set a stop-loss at $27,300 and a take-profit at $28,200.

When the price surged to $28,150 and began to retreat, my inner greed stirred, but I gritted my teeth and executed the plan. Ten minutes later, the price plummeted to $26,500, and this experience confirmed: Discipline is a trader's moat.

The trading log for the year shows that out of 92 operations, there were 58 stop-losses and 34 take-profits, but with a risk-reward ratio of 1:2.8, I achieved stable account growth.

Third rule: Wait for your "perfect moment".

The most successful trades often stem from patience. Last November, I didn't open a position for three weeks until I discovered strong support for BTC at $35,800.

After confirming the breakout, I entered the market with 25% of my position, and this trade contributed to 65% of the month's profit. The market is in a state of fluctuation 90% of the time; real opportunities belong to those who can wait.

Survival rules for future traders:

Principal is an arsenal; don't exhaust it all at once treating every trade like an exam. Strictly execute your plan and learn to coexist with solitude; the market tests patience most of the time.

I once groped in the fog, but now I hold a compass. There are no myths in the contract market, only those who repeat simple discipline a thousand times.
