3000U eventually grew to 360,000U. This is not a story of luck; frankly, it's just me gradually quitting those deadly bad habits.



In the contract market, the ones who last the longest are never those who master some advanced skills, but those who stick to a few simplest, most ruthless rules. Really, it's that simple.

Back then, I never thought about getting rich overnight with my 3000U. Trading can be fierce, but your mind can't be foolish.

I divided the principal into ten parts, risking only 30U per attempt. Using 100x leverage. When the market moves favorably, one point doubles; if it goes against me, I exit immediately, never holding onto illusions.

The market is always right; only myself can be wrong. This sounds easy to say, but it's really hard to do.

Regarding stop-loss, I am stricter than anyone. I don't dream of rebounds or expect anything. I don't wait for those illusory "maybe"s. When the market turns, even a second of hesitation is a loss. My stop-loss principle is just one sentence—if there's an opportunity, exit; if you have no face, then get out. This bottom line has saved me countless times.

Another life-saving rule: after five consecutive losses, trigger a forced circuit breaker. Turn off the trading software and forcibly exit. Do you think you're still trading? Actually, you're just giving money to the market. When you look at it calmly the next day, the market's pattern becomes clearer.

Profit must be realized immediately; this is the final bottom line. Earning 3000U in your account but not withdrawing? That's just a shiny number game on the screen. Withdrawing half into your wallet makes you realize what real silver and gold are.

Contracts are not a stage for screenshot showing off. Being able to stay at the table without being kicked out—that's real skill.

My core principle is simple: follow the trend. The trend is a money-printing machine; oscillations are a meat grinder. If you can't see clearly, wait patiently. Wait until the pattern is clear before taking action. Missing one opportunity is okay; as long as you're alive, there will be another.

I keep my position size tight, never exceeding 10% of total funds. Each trial with 30U, I can afford to lose because I can compensate.

Truly consistent profit-makers are never those gamblers who go all-in. Those who make it to the end are disciplined, self-controlled traders who live long enough.

This contract game is a long-term battle, not a show of quick wealth.

When you embed trading rules into your bones and lock your emotions in an iron cage, you'll suddenly realize: making money is just a byproduct. The real skill is to survive.

Stop-loss is a lifeline; I only understood this truth after experiencing a margin call myself.

Medical records indicate that the core issue for this patient is not the choice of surgical procedure, but the treatment plan for emotional complications—clinically manifested as the "forced circuit breaker after five consecutive losses," which is essentially a psychological circuit breaker, not a trading strategy. It is important to note that the article's mention of 100x leverage with 30U trial and error, while seemingly a standard position management approach, has hidden liquidity risks—can 30U really be liquidated instantly during extreme market volatility? This requires regular review. Additionally, the judgment that "the trend is a money-printing machine" should be approached with caution—during volatile markets, trend-following strategies often show clear signs of capital outflow, but no strategies for handling consolidation phases are mentioned. However, it must be acknowledged that this disciplinary framework does have value at the psychological level, especially in effectively locking traders' psychology in a cage.

Basically, it's discipline and mindset—nothing mysterious. Living long is the real winner.

Talking about stop-losses quite harshly, really, most people die because of the words "wait a little longer"

That's right, stop-loss is a lifesaver. I've seen too many people die because of the words "wait a little longer."

Wow, this is the real deal. I need to tattoo that stop-loss line on my forehead.
