Cryptocurrency Contract Survival Manual: The Ultimate Guide from Beginner to Surviving
When I first entered the market, I spent 5000U as tuition to learn a truth: the contract market is a slaughterhouse specifically for harvesting smart people. It wasn't until I met an old trader who turned 300U into 20 million that I realized the ones who truly make money are always those who use the simplest methods. Below are the survival rules verified through practical experience.
1. Understanding the Essence of Contracts (3 truths every beginner must know)
1. The essence of leverage is "time accelerator"
5x leverage = compressing 1 hour of market activity into 12 minutes
20x leverage = 1 hour becomes 3 minutes
100x leverage = viewing candlesticks feels like pressing fast forward
Real Case: In September 2023, when BTC broke through the key level, users with 5x leverage had an average profit of 23%, while users with 100x leverage had a liquidation rate of 89%
2. The hidden algorithms of exchanges
Liquidation line = opening price × (1 ± 1/leverage ratio × 1.2)
Slippage formula: When price fluctuates by 0.5%, the actual execution price of a market order differs by approximately fluctuation range × leverage ratio / 10
2. Beginner's Operation Safety Manual
Step 1: Opening position settings (taking 100U as the principal)
1. Leverage choice: Initially recommended 3-5 times
2. Position calculation: 100U × 5 times = 500U position
3. Take profit and stop loss:
Stop loss = opening price ± (2% of account principal)
Take profit = 2-3 times the stop loss
Step 2: Margin management golden ratio
Example: A 10,000U account should be split as follows:
500U main position (5 times)
200U hedge (3 times)
5000U reserved funds
4300U unmovable principal
3. Practical Training Roadmap
Phase 1 (1-3 months):
Complete 100 trades using a simulated account
Record each trade's: opening reason / holding time / emotional state
Focus on practicing: stop loss execution ability
Phase 2 (3-6 months):
Real funds ≤ 500U
Goal: Monthly return rate of 5%-10%
Prohibited: Using leverage over 10 times
Phase 3 (after 6 months):
Use 20% of funds
Establish your own 3 trading strategies
Annual goal: Maintain a stable return of 30%+
Finally, remember this truth: in the contract market, living longer is 100 times more important than making money quickly. Those who post profit screenshots every day will see 80% of them disappear after three months. True experts often use the simplest methods—low leverage, strict stop-loss, waiting for opportunities. Now, take a deep breath and get ready to hone your trading system over the next 3 years.
