In the contract market, the myth of 'getting rich overnight' always attracts countless retail investors, but behind these myths are more people going bankrupt and leaving the market. Many traders set their profit targets as 'doubling every month' but ignore the objective laws of the market; high returns inevitably come with high risks. Short-term windfalls are often the prelude to long-term losses. The true essence of long-term profitability in contracts is to abandon the fantasy of windfall profits and practice the 'slow wealth' philosophy by accumulating compound interest through stable small profits, ultimately achieving sustained wealth growth.

The core of the 'slow wealth' philosophy is to accept reasonable profit expectations. Those who can truly profit in the contract market for a long time understand that a stable annual return of 20%-50% far exceeds the outcome of doubling in a certain period but ultimately going bankrupt. Wang Lu's trading system does not aim for a single large profit but earns stable time value through selling strategies, combined with dynamic position optimization to enhance returns. This seemingly 'slow' way of making profits can form an astonishing compounding effect over the long term. Calculated at an annual rate of 30%, an initial capital of 100,000 yuan will grow to 371,000 yuan after 5 years and reach 1,378,000 yuan after 10 years. This is the charm of 'slow wealth.'

Practicing the philosophy of 'slow wealth' requires rejecting short-term temptations and focusing on long-term goals. Every day in the market, there are seemingly attractive 'hot contracts,' and many retail investors frequently switch varieties and adjust strategies in pursuit of these opportunities, ultimately leading to soaring transaction costs and profit retracements. Practitioners of 'slow wealth' will adhere to their trading system, only making trades that align with their strategies, and even if they miss certain hot trends, they do not feel anxious. They understand that trading is a marathon; short-term leads are meaningless, and long-term stability is the ultimate victory. As trading philosophy states, 'Only earn the money you can understand.' Those lucrative opportunities that do not belong to you are traps in themselves.

'Slow wealth' also requires traders to maintain restraint and avoid amplifying risks after profits. Many people, after achieving a large profit, develop a greedy mindset, begin to expand their positions and increase leverage, resulting in profit retracement or even losses. A rational approach is to 'lock in profits while protecting the principal' after making a profit, such as reducing positions appropriately after reaching a 10% profit and moving the stop-loss to the cost line to ensure that the gains do not slip away. At the same time, some profits should be transferred out of the account, which not only reduces the risk exposure of the trading account but also enhances psychological security, avoiding the impact of profit fluctuations on trading mindset.

Giving up the fantasy of huge profits does not mean giving up the pursuit of profit, but rather giving up unrealistic greed; practicing the philosophy of 'slow wealth' is not about passively waiting but actively building a stable profit system. In the contract market, those who are eager for quick success often fall first, while those willing to 'slowly become rich' can reap lasting profits with the support of time. In the end, trading is not just about skills and strategies but also about understanding and adhering to the laws of wealth growth.
