#数字货币市场洞察 Someone asked me, what does liquidation feel like?

It's probably like this: at 3 a.m., your phone pops up with two notifications at once—one is a forced liquidation message from the exchange, and the other is someone saying goodbye. Your account numbers are bleeding, and your mindset collapses with them. That sense of despair is like falling into a bottomless abyss.

But the market never cares how miserable you are. It just keeps moving—going up when it should, going down when it should.

Later, I understood one thing: the crypto world doesn’t need tears, it needs iron discipline. Want to bounce back? Engrave these six rules into your mind first.

**Six Survival Rules for Contract Trading**

**Rule 1: Take profit and stop loss, no discussion**
Your principal is your lifeline. Take your profit and run, cut your losses when you’re wrong, don’t count on luck.

**Rule 2: Don’t trade impulsively**
Frequent trading = giving money away. Just the fees and slippage will eat away 1–2% before you even start making money.

**Rule 3: Knowing when to stay out is real trading**
Missing a move won’t kill you—blindly going all-in will. Don’t trade if you don’t understand the market.

**Rule 4: Small steps, don’t dream of overnight riches**
Contracts aren’t a casino. If you use $100 with 10x leverage, even a 1% gain only nets you ten bucks. Steady and consistent wins.

**Rule 5: Never go all-in**
Black swans hit without warning. Leave yourself room to fight another day. People who bet everything usually lose the chance to recover.

**Rule 6: Stick to your plan**
The hardest part isn’t making a strategy—it’s sticking to it. Overcome greed and fear, and you’ll outperform 90% of people.

Some people make money by luck, but eventually lose it all by skill. The only ones who survive in this market are those who treat rules like a religion. Discipline is everything—always.
