#大户持仓变化 Contracts are all about split-second decisions and lifelong regrets.
The first time I got into contracts, I only had 8,000 USDT in my account, but I was dreaming of getting rich overnight. I didn’t even know where the courage came from, but I went all-in with 100x leverage. When the market moved slightly, in fifteen minutes, half my position was gone. Sitting in front of the screen, watching that glaring red text, my heart was pounding like it was about to jump out of my chest. That moment, I realized a painful truth — liquidation is never an accident; it’s the first lesson the market teaches all beginners.
Since then, my mindset completely changed. I stopped dreaming of overnight riches and no longer let emotions decide my actions. Gradually, I began to understand: contracts are not gambling, but a practice in risk management.
I’ve seen too many people: making a profit and thinking they’re a genius, only to blow up their account three days later; I’ve also seen those who lost so much they couldn’t sleep, staring at K-line charts all night until 4 a.m., completely consumed by greed and fear. They never understood one principle — the traders who truly survive spend most of their time doing one thing: **waiting**.
Seventy percent of the time, they stay in cash and observe calmly; thirty percent of the time, they strike with heavy positions. Once they act, they only take that “clean profit,” never greedy.
Last year, I used the BOLL indicator + K-line rhythm to catch a wave of $SOL. While others looked at the K-line trend, I saw the rhythm — a tightening signal indicates accumulation, and a surge in volume means the window is opening. I entered in stages at the lower band, with stop-loss set at previous lows. Over three weeks, my account multiplied thirty times. This wasn’t luck, but discipline.
From this, I’ve summarized three iron rules, engraved in my heart:
**Rule 1**: No single loss exceeds 2% of the account. **Rule 2**: Only make two trades per day at most. **Rule 3**: Lock in profits immediately when floating gains reach 50%.
Sounds a bit rigid? It’s precisely this “rigidity” that has kept me alive until now. The market is never short of passion and courage; what’s missing are those who survive.
If you’re still being led by the market and trading emotionally, I have only one thing to say: stop first. Doubling your money is easy; the hard part is not blowing up first. The abyss is right beneath your feet, but the light has already been lit — are you brave enough to follow?

100x leverage, half the position liquidated in 15 minutes, this opening was incredible, I directly jumped in.
One person says they doubled their investment 30 times in three weeks, another says they only make two trades a day, but it all feels like armchair quarterbacking afterward.
The real situation is that most people simply cannot stick to these three ironclad rules.

Playing with 100x leverage and crashing is basically inviting death, but the discipline mentioned later does sound a bit convincing. However, for those who can really stick to it... hmm, I guess there aren't many down here in this building.

It's true, I've also experienced the 100x leverage moment and felt that suffocating sensation. Now I only believe in one principle: living is more important than making money.

It can be seen from the research... that this framework of 2% stop loss + 50% locked principal indeed makes sense. But the key is that most people can't stick to it for even three days, let alone the "practice" of 70% empty positions.

100x leverage is really a must-know for beginners; that's how I got started too.
It sounds like motivational advice, but a 70/30 split really works... the problem is that I can't stick with it.

100x leverage loses half in 15 minutes, this is not a story, it's a warning.
Ah brother, I've had this kind of dream too, now I just want to survive.
Sounds nice, but most people can't resist greed, including myself.
The three iron laws sound boring, but that's the difference between surviving and not.
Discipline indeed overcomes emotions, but the question is who can stick to it forever.
Not blowing up is the first lesson; the opportunity to double your investment will always come.

100x leverage, this thing is really the graveyard for the young.
Getting liquidated once and gaining enlightenment, this guy is truly lucky.
Wait, thirty times in three weeks? No... this number is a bit unbelievable.
I just want to ask, can that 2% stop loss really be executed, especially when seeing floating profits...
Everyone's right, but how many actually manage to do it?
What the market lacks is those who can survive, this statement hits the nail on the head.
The 70/30 split sounds simple, but the key is whether you can endure that 30% window period.

This set of theories sounds good, but the people who can truly implement these three iron laws... I bet five dollars that it won't exceed 5%.
