At three-thirty in the morning, my phone buzzed at the bedside.

Catching a glimpse of the name on the screen, I instantly sobered up—it was that younger brother who always calls me “sister.” The video connected, and his face was ashen, his voice trembling: “Sister… it’s all gone, all of it, 10 U.”

I took a deep breath: “What’s the leverage?”

“Ten times.”

“What about the stop loss?”

He tugged at the corner of his mouth: “I thought I could pull it back...”

I was momentarily speechless. It wasn’t surprise; it was that this scene felt too familiar—like replaying that night five years ago.

At that time, I had just entered this circle, overflowing with confidence, diving in with all my assets, thinking the K-line was an ATM. As a result, the market flipped, and my account was directly wiped out.

It was only at the moment I slumped in front of the computer that I understood: going all-in is not courage, it's giving away your head.

In the following years, I stayed up late reviewing hundreds of times, finally developing three iron rules. Relying on them, I gradually climbed out of the pit of liquidation.

First, always use only one-tenth.

Even if the account has 6000U, I only move 600 at a time. No matter how crazy the market gets, I must leave some bullets to protect my home. Losing one trade doesn’t hurt the vitality, allowing the opportunity for a comeback.

Second, make a shallow cut with a knife.

Each stop loss must not exceed 1% of total capital. For example, if you open 5x with 600U and hit the preset line, immediately cut your position. You will find that even after five consecutive losses, the account only drops by 5%, maintaining a steady mindset.

Third, if you can't see clearly, pull back and wait.

The market is not a casino; real experts spend most of their time observing. When trends are chaotic, hold back and wait for clear signals before striking hard; the winning rate doubles directly.

Last year, a friend who learned trading from me used to blow up his account every few days. After following these three rules for half a year, he rolled from 3000U to 50,000U.

He later told me: 'I used to think going all-in was cool, but now I understand that going all-in should be reserved for guaranteed wins.'

So don’t rush to go all-in; survive first to have the capital to win.

The market always has opportunities, but life is only one. If you want to continue on this road—

Remember: gamble less with your life, think more.
