In the contract market, people get liquidated every day, yet they come back the next day to keep giving away money. Why is that?

To put it simply, it comes down to one thing: not understanding.

Look at what platforms clearly state—5x leverage, 10x leverage—many people actually think they're using that leverage. But what's the reality? There's 10,000 USDT in the account, but their real risk tolerance is at most 500 USDT, yet with a shaky hand, they open a 30,000 USDT position.

You think it's 5x leverage? In fact, it's already dozens of times that, barely holding on. A slight market fluctuation, and you’re wiped out, becoming a contributor to liquidity.

People who really know what they’re doing play a completely different game.

What do they use contracts for? As risk hedging tools, not a gambling table. Where does the money come from? It's left behind by those who blindly go all-in and trade frequently.

Look at how the pros operate: they spend 70% of their time waiting and watching. Waiting for what? For market signals, for others to make mistakes. Once they act, it's fast, precise, and decisive—they take their profits and leave.

Now look at most people: glued to the screen for dozens of hours a day, going long one moment and short the next—the busier they are, the more chaotic it gets, and in the end, they realize they're just paying platform fees.

If you want to survive in this market, the core is just two words: self-control.

When others panic, you stay calm; when others get greedy, you hold back. Each single loss should be strictly limited to no more than 5% of your account—that’s the bottom line. Profit? Take it when you should, let your profits run, don’t be too quick to cash out.

Some say contracts are just gambling. That’s wrong.

The real gamblers are those who go all-in based on gut feeling, set no stop-loss, and take oversized positions. What do the pros rely on? Discipline and probability—not luck.

Opportunities are never lacking in the market; what’s lacking are people who can stick to the rules. Only those who can control themselves will have the last laugh.
