From 100U to 100,000U: My Comeback Story Using "Dumb Methods" After Getting Liquidated in the Futures Market
What is the daily life of a contract player? Get Liquidated, Get Liquidated, or Get Liquidated! As a former "Get Liquidated specialist", my account was down to just over 100 U at my worst. But can you believe it? With just this 100 U, I spent 3 months and managed to roll it up to 100,000 U!
Don't think I'm bragging, this is not some "get rich overnight" myth, but rather the result of an ordinary person stubbornly working through the contract market using the most "foolish" methods. Today, I'll break down my path to success for you, the survival rules of contract trading that ordinary people can replicate. Feel free to take it!
Step 1: Start with 100U, first practice your "guts".
At the beginning, I had 100U, and I had one thought: "Even if I lose all this money, it won't affect my ability to eat or sleep." It was precisely this "nothing to lose" mentality that allowed me to dare to "experiment" in the market.
- Only play one coin: stubbornly stick to Bitcoin (BTC)
Why choose BTC? It has a large market cap and relatively stable fluctuations, making it less susceptible to being casually harvested by "whales." Beginners should opt for this kind of "stable coin" and avoid those strange small coins; otherwise, you won't even know how you got wrecked.
- Don't be greedy with leverage: 20x is enough.
100x leverage looks exciting? That's "suicidal trading"! I use 20x — it amplifies the profits while keeping the risk within my tolerance. Beginners should stay away from high leverage; if your mindset collapses, all operations will go haywire.
- Don't take too heavy positions: always leave half of the principal.
Each time you open a position, use only 50U and keep the remaining 50U as "emergency funds." The contract market is most prone to "spike liquidations;" by keeping reserve funds, you can survive extreme market conditions.
- Set the rules: take profit at 10%, cut losses at 5%
Never get attached to trading! Make a maximum of 2 trades a day, regardless of whether you have earned enough or lost everything; stop when the time is up. Relying on this iron discipline, after half a month, 100U turned into 300U. It may be slow, but every cent is "steady happiness."
Step 2: Roll over and increase the position, making the snowball grow bigger.
With a principal of 300U, I started "rolling the warehouse". The core discipline remains unchanged, but the strategy needs to be upgraded:
- Half-position operation, increase position when profitable
When it's 300U, open a position with 150U each time. If 150U earns 10% and becomes 165U, the total funds will be 315U. Next time, open a position using half of 315U (157.5U), and so on. If you profit, gradually increase your position, and if you lose, "reset with one click."
- If you get it wrong, start over; never stubbornly persist.
Once a trade hits the stop loss, immediately reduce the position back to the initial 50U, and wait until you win a few times in a row before slowly increasing it back. This stage is the most frustrating; I spent a full 2 months, relying on one "small win" after another, rolling 300U up to 10000U.
Step 3: Capture the big market movement and achieve a qualitative leap.
By the third month, the market experienced a big surge. At this point, one must be bold when needed:
- Increase the position and dare to take profits.
After accumulating enough profits and confidence, I raised the position opening ratio to 70%. In the past, I would run after making 10%, but this time I see a good trend and directly raised the take profit level to 30%.
- Strict stop loss, maintain the bottom line
The position has been increased, and the stop-loss level has been set tighter. This ensures that even if the judgment is wrong, it won't be "injuring the bones and muscles." Relying on this wave of market, I directly surged from 10,000U to 100,000U!
Final words: In the contract market, the "foolish method" is the way to go.
In the past three months, I relied solely on these few "dumb rules" without any insider information:
- Control risk: Never invest all your money.
The futures market is high-risk, don't think about "going all in to get rich", learn to "stay alive" first.
- Overcome greed: take the profit and don't always think about selling at the highest point.
Just eating the fish body is enough, leave the fish head and tail for others.
- Accept losses: Acknowledge your mistakes, don't stubbornly hold on, preserving your principal is the most important.
The cryptocurrency world is not short of opportunities, but what is lacking are those who can control themselves and wait for those opportunities to survive.
Remember, in the contract market, slowly getting rich is the fastest way. You can laugh at my method as "stupid," but it allowed me to turn 100U into 100,000U - that's enough. #生活手记 #币圈[超话]#
