Many people get deeper and deeper into contract trading, and the root cause is only one: relying entirely on intuition to open positions without a mature trading system.

I am 37 years old this year. Since I officially started dealing with digital assets at age 25, I managed to grow my account to an eight-figure scale in just two years. These achievements are not luck-based; they are the result of strictly following a set of underlying logic that "seems clumsy but is almost consistently profitable." These 7 ironclad trading rules are each learned through blood and tears from real losses:

**1. Strict Position Allocation, Risks Always Controllable**
Divide the total funds into 5 portions, trading only 1 portion at a time. Set a 10-point stop-loss, with a maximum single-loss of only 2% of total funds. Even after 5 consecutive stop-losses, the total capital only decreases by 10%. As for take profit, set a minimum target of 10 points, making it almost impossible to get trapped.

**2. Follow the Trend, Win Rate Naturally Increases**
Rebounds in a downtrend are mostly traps for bulls, while pullbacks in an uptrend are true low-entry opportunities. Instead of blindly bottom-fishing, it’s better to trade in the direction of the trend, which can reduce difficulty by about 50%.

**3. Stay Away from Explosive Coins to Avoid Fake Trends**
Whether mainstream coins or small altcoins, rapid rises in the short term are hard to sustain at new highs. Once high levels show stagnation, subsequent attempts to push higher usually fail, increasing risk sharply. Don’t hold onto false hope to gamble on the last frenzy.

**4. Use MACD Signals for Entry and Exit, Know Your Mindset**
When DIF and DEA form a golden cross below the zero line and break above zero, it’s the most reliable entry point; when a death cross appears above zero and presses downward, you should decisively reduce your position.

**5. Volume-Price Relationship Tells the Truth Best**
A significant volume breakout after thorough consolidation in low areas must be closely watched; if high-level volume increases but prices don’t rise, you should immediately clear your positions. Trading volume never lies.

**6. Only Participate in Uptrends, Match the Cycle Well**
The 3-day moving average trending upward indicates short-term opportunities; the 30-day moving average rising reflects medium-term trends; only when the 84-day moving average is upward does the main upward wave occur; a rising 120-day moving average indicates a long-term trend. Layout according to the big picture for the highest success rate.

**7. Conduct Weekly Deep Review and Correct Deviations in Time**
Regularly review whether your current positions still align with your initial logic; observe if the weekly chart remains on the expected track; if there are signs of a major trend reversal, you must adjust your plan immediately and never resist it stubbornly.

Contract trading is far from a game of luck; relying solely on intuition will only lead to increasing losses. As long as you truly incorporate these 7 ironclad rules into your trading execution, you will be surprised to find that stable profitability is not as distant as you imagine.
