#看懂K线 Do you remember when I first started trading contracts, watching the numbers in my account fluctuate up and down, my heart racing like I was at a nightclub! There was one time I set my sights on a coin called SOP, convinced it was going to drop, so I went all in and shorted it!
What happened? The market played a big joke on me, and the price kept rising steadily, my unrealized profit and loss floating in the green, making me shiver with pain. At that time, I truly understood what it meant when they say 'the market teaches you a lesson'.
Later, I realized that relying solely on instinct and impulse doesn't work in the contract market. **Position management**, **stop-loss settings**, these are lessons learned through painful experiences. Just like this time, although my direction to short SOP was correct, if I hadn’t been so greedy, controlled my position well, and set a proper stop-loss, I wouldn’t have been hit so hard by the market.
Looking back, that liquidation, although it made me lose quite a bit of money, also made me truly start to pay attention to risk, learn technical analysis, and gradually build my own trading system. So, mistakes in trading are actually a valuable asset on our path to growth! Have you ever experienced a similar moment of 'paying tuition'?
