The vast majority of people blow up their accounts in contracts, not because the market is too harsh, but because they fundamentally do not understand what they are doing.
The platform states "5x leverage, 10x leverage", and you take it at face value. Clearly, you only have 10,000 U in your account, and can afford to lose 500 U, but in a moment of excitement, you opened a position of 30,000 U. You thought it was 5 times, but in reality, you are already bearing dozens of times leverage—when the market shakes slightly, you blow up without even having the chance to react.
Real experts do not play like this.
Their logic can be summed up in one sentence: Contracts are not gambling; they are tools for risk management.
Where does their profit come from? It starts from the moment you blow up your account.
The rhythm of experts is completely opposite to that of retail investors—
70% of the time is spent waiting; when the opportunity has not arrived, they prefer to stay still; when the opportunity comes, they strike decisively and cleanly.
However, most people frequently make trades, becoming busier and losing more, ultimately leaving all their money on the table.
If you want to survive in the contract market, remember two words: restraint.
When others panic, you must remain calm; when others are greedy, you must be cautious.
Losses must be limited to within 5% of the account; but once there is profit, you must dare to amplify it, letting profits run, rather than hastily securing them.
"Contracts are just gambling." This statement is only half true.
True gamblers are those who recklessly open leverage and bet based on feelings; those who understand the calculations rely not on luck, but on discipline + probability.
A person charging blindly will eventually crash; following someone experienced gives you a chance to walk more steadily and further. $BTC
