Staring at the market until your eyes almost pop out, but the numbers in your account keep going down - is this your daily routine?

To be honest, I understand.

When I first started trading contracts, I was just like that. The candlestick would jump, and my hands would start shaking; I would get up at three in the morning to check the market, even more punctual than going to my early shift. Later, I realized a principle: those who truly profit in this market are actually quite zen.

I met a brother who has been following me for half a year. In the past, he could open more than ten orders a day, trying to catch every fluctuation. And now? He only makes two or three orders a week, and his profits have increased fivefold. He told me that the best thing now is being able to sleep soundly for eight hours every night.

My understanding of contract trading? Simple - treat it like a game.

Keep your position between 40% and 60%, just like a health bar in a game. Dropped by 10%? Stay calm, don’t panic. Up by 20%? Don’t get carried away either. Last week's ETH market, we took 15% and exited; some people joked that we were too conservative. The next day, it crashed, while others were drawing circles in the corner, we were counting our money.

The most frightening thing is those who treat every trade as a matter of life and death. I have seen too many people who never trade again after one liquidation, and I have also seen those who stubbornly hold on until they end up at zero.

In fact, this market is like playing ranked matches; losing one game is not scary, but what is scary is using the same strategy in the next game.

Now the way I lead people is like this:
- Setting a stop-loss is like buying insurance for yourself.
- Review once a week to study where I went wrong.
- Withdraw a portion of your earnings to secure your profit.

There is a post-2000s individual who is particularly interesting; using this method, they turned 2000U into 15000U in three months. They said that watching the market now feels like playing Honor of Kings; with a stable mindset, the operations naturally won't go awry.

In this circle, living longer is always more important than earning quickly. When you are no longer led by every candlestick, you can see more opportunities clearly.
