A few days ago, a fan asked me: “Brother Bao, why are there still so many people playing contracts when they explode every day? Is there some special charm?” This question reminded me of my experiences when I first entered the circle. At that time, I only had 10,000 USDT in hand, thinking “5x leverage should be safe,” but I ended up exploding twice in three days, and my account was left with only 2000 USDT. Later, I realized that what I thought was 5 times had actually turned into 50 times; with just a slight movement in the market, I became the “experience officer of liquidation.” In fact, those who truly know how to play contracts have a completely different mindset. In their eyes, contracts are not gambling, but risk hedging. Every penny you earn doesn’t come from nowhere but from the chips of others who are liquidating. I know an old player who spends 70% of their time watching the market without acting, just waiting for the most comfortable entry point; but once they take action, they can harvest quickly and cleanly. In contrast, I used to struggle every day in contracts, essentially working for the dealers with my life on the line. Until I learned the three words “against human nature”: when others panic, I must remain calm; when others are greedy, I must be cautious. Losses must be firmly kept within 5%, while profits should be maximized, considering taking profits only if they double. Many people say that contracts are gambling, which is actually wrong! Those who explode are the ones gambling, while those making money are just calculating. The principle sounds simple, but when it comes to operation, being able to maintain a stable mindset and resist temptation is the hardest part. I have gone through the dark period of daily liquidations and relied on cold rules to bring my account back. Do not blindly trust “magic orders”; contracts are not an emotional game, but a systematic game. As for how to understand it and survive with small capital, it cannot be summed up in a sentence or two. But remember: one tree cannot make a boat, and a lone sail cannot go far. In the crypto circle, fighting alone will only lead to a narrower path; if you want to go far, following the right people is more important than anything else. @招财阿宝
