1. Trading contracts is about taking small risks for large gains. Experiencing losses is normal, but after a stop-loss occurs, there are two types of people: some will open positions recklessly after a stop-loss, while others will directly enter a cooling-off period. My suggestion is that if you encounter frequent stop-loss situations, you should calm down, temporarily stop trading, and adjust your strategy.

2. Do not rush for success; trading is not a means to get rich overnight. When encountering losses in trading, maintain a calm mindset, do not rush to open positions, and do not heavily invest all at once.

3. It's important to recognize the big trend. When the market shows a one-sided trend, you should trade with the trend and not against it; trading against the trend is the root of losses. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced trader, many have a habit of trading against the trend. However, once the market trend is established, trading against it can often lead to severe lessons from the market. Therefore, we must learn to trade with the trend and patiently wait for opportunities to act.

4. The risk-reward ratio must be well managed; otherwise, it is difficult to make money. Ensure that profits are larger than losses as much as possible, and at least achieve a 2:1 ratio before considering opening a position.

5. Frequent trading is a major taboo in contracts; if you are not a contract expert, you must restrain the impulse to open positions blindly, especially novice traders who always want to seize every opportunity, but most so-called opportunities will lead to losses. 6. Only earn money within your understanding of the market, which is very important.

7. Do not hold onto losing positions; holding onto contracts is a major taboo, especially for beginners. You must set stop-losses; holding onto positions is the beginning of a downward spiral. Again, please do not hold onto positions.

8. Don't get carried away when you are profitable; getting carried away will lead to losses.

The most stable way to play contracts: perpetual contract profit-making tips

1. The most stable way to play contracts in the crypto space

Choose good coins and be a good person. As a leveraged trader, volatility can be amplified by leverage; during trading, the primary consideration should not be volatility but certainty.

In a rising market, go long on strong coins; conversely, in a declining market, go short on weak coins.

For example, at the beginning of a new quarter, the strongest rising coins are EOS and ETH, and the first choices for going long on a pullback are these two coins. When the market is falling, the first choice for shorting is Bitcoin; even if the final result is that mainstream coins fall more than Bitcoin, only shorting or chasing after Bitcoin can greatly reduce the risk of violent rebounds.

Most traders in the market are short-term traders, and it's hard to stick to ideal exit points during trades. They are also not very proficient in position control and cannot rely on fluctuations to average prices. Given this situation, for most traders, a good entry price outweighs everything.

Once there is a profit, take some off the table to secure gains, and set the remaining portion to break-even stop-loss. This is something I have always emphasized in my community.

The essence of contract trading strategy

(1) Identify the main trend and trade in the direction of the main trend; otherwise, do not enter the market.
