#数字货币市场洞察 I’ve seen too many stories of people going into debt from contract liquidations, but not many truly make a comeback. I have a friend who owed 600,000 two years ago; her family and friends all advised her to stay away from crypto, but she just wouldn’t listen. She scraped together 3,000 USDT and came to me, saying she wanted to take one last shot.

The strategy I set for her was very simple—strictly follow the compounding plan and never get greedy. She’s hot-tempered, but fortunately very disciplined. Six months later, she actually filled the hole. Looking back now, what got her back on her feet wasn’t luck; it was that she truly engraved those painful lessons into her bones.

If you’re also trading leveraged contracts, these lessons might be more useful than any signal group:

**Don’t get emotional after consecutive stop-losses.** Many people want to immediately recover their losses, which only drags them deeper. When this happens, the best thing to do is close the app, go out for a walk, and wait until your mind is clear. Opening impulsive trades is just giving away money.

**Don’t expect to get rich overnight.** Trading isn’t something where you enter today and become financially free tomorrow. Going all-in feels thrilling, but liquidation is even more “thrilling”—to the point you question your life. Slowly compounding small funds is better than anything.

**Don’t fight the trend.** The worst thing in a one-sided market is trading against the trend—trying to catch the bottom in a crash or shorting during a pump. The market won’t change direction for your stubbornness. Admit defeat when necessary and follow the trend—that’s the right way.

**Always calculate your risk-reward ratio.** Before opening a position, ask yourself: If this trade goes right, how much can I make? If it goes wrong, how much will I lose? At minimum, aim for a 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio; otherwise, even with a 50% win rate, you’ll still lose money. If you can’t get the math right, contracts aren’t for you.

**Frequent trading is slow suicide.** Rookies often see opportunities everywhere and open over a dozen trades a day. In reality, 90% of the market moves have nothing to do with you. Truly worthwhile opportunities only come a few times a month. Controlling your hand is more important than any technical indicator.

**Never hold onto a losing position.** This can’t be said enough. Holding onto losses is like boiling a frog in warm water—today you hold a bit, tomorrow a bit more, and eventually liquidation hits before you can react. Cutting losses hurts, but at least you live to fight another day.

**Making money is when you’re at the most risk.** After a few consecutive wins, it’s easy to get cocky and think you’ve figured it all out, only to go all-in and lose everything in one shot. The market will humble you in a hundred different ways; maintaining respect is what keeps you in the game.

At the end of the day, trading contracts is a game of using small amounts to go for big returns, but that doesn’t mean you can act recklessly. Those who truly make money rely not on luck, but on strict discipline and a healthy respect for risk. Remember, only earn money within your level of understanding—everything else is just tuition paid to the market.
