I just started getting into contracts not long ago, and seeing others play so smoothly makes me eager to try it out myself. But to be honest, the interface with all those leverage multipliers, stop loss, take profit, and so on makes my head spin. I randomly clicked a few times and found that I was losing quite quickly...

I would like to ask everyone: What settings should beginners pay attention to when trading contracts? How can I operate to reduce the risk of liquidation? Should I start with low leverage? Are there any survival tips that can be shared?

I sincerely seek stable strategies, I don't want to lose everything in one go😂

Hey buddy, leverage seems simple but is deadly in practice. Low leverage can really be a bloody lesson. Always set a stop loss before taking action; how many people got liquidated just because they didn't have this habit? Practice enough with a demo account; putting real money in is just paying tuition. Don't tell me you can go all in in one shot. Diversifying your funds is the way to go; going all in at once is definitely a death sentence. Actually, being stable? It means not operating too frequently. Those who can't resist the urge to act just by looking at the candlestick charts lose the fastest. It's normal to feel overwhelmed; it shows you still have rationality, much better than those who go full position right off the bat.

Bro, this is a classic symptom of being impulsive and not thinking clearly. I've been there before, and I'm still paying off debts, haha. Starting with low leverage is definitely not wrong, but the key is to understand those settings first; otherwise, you can still lose a lot even with low leverage. Set your stop loss tighter, really don't think it's a hassle; one time getting liquidated is more expensive than anything else. --- Buddy, I advise you to start with a small amount to practice, don't rush to follow the trend. Contracts are designed to eat up those who are too anxious. --- To be honest, no matter how stable your strategy is, it can't withstand a collapsed mindset. First, think clearly about how much you can afford to lose; that's the real lifesaver. --- You must set a stop loss at the start; that's the bottom line, bro. Otherwise, no matter how cautious you are, it's all in vain. --- My advice can be summed up in two words: be cautious. It's really not about showing off; getting liquidated once can keep you humble for a while. --- Don't be greedy with the leverage; 2x or 3x is enough for practice. The rest is just gambling psychology at work.

Simply put, low leverage is a lifeline; don't think about making a big comeback all at once. Contracts really need to be talked about theoretically first; once you get the feel for it, then start with small amounts. Setting a stop loss means you won't panic as much; a calm mindset helps you survive longer. Start practicing with 1-2 times leverage; don't listen to those who brag; stable returns are the way to go. The higher the leverage, the quicker the losses; I've learned this lesson the hard way multiple times. Instead of studying flashy settings, it's better to learn when to set a stop loss. There are no lifeline techniques; only those who are not greedy can survive longer.

Dude, I advise you, put that lever down first, really Low-leverage rigging is also better than high-leverage liquidation, believe me Don't move blindly when the stop loss is set, this is a lifeline Don't look at others playing slippery, 99% of them are survivor bias, and the rest is long gone To tell the truth, let's play the simulation plate for three or two months, don't be in a hurry to throw real money I was like this at first, and I was taught to be quite ruthless No matter how good the setting is, it can't withstand the collapse of mentality, which is the biggest pitfall

It sounds like you were misled by the operations of whales. Little do you know, these people are backed by quantitative teams controlling the market, and the chip distribution has long been locked... Is it really normal to lose money quickly by casually using leverage? Have you looked at the on-chain data? The real lifesaving technique isn't about low leverage, but understanding the flow of funds, you know?

Bro, stop with the fancy stuff, set your stop loss first. --- Low leverage is really a lifesaver, I've seen too many people go all in. --- To be honest, leverage is a trap, newbies should never touch high multipliers. --- This thing is just a gambling machine, I advise you to skip it. --- Mindset is more important than skill, you die the moment you get greedy. --- I've lost like this too, now even 5x feels thrilling. --- Strictly execute stop loss and take profit, otherwise you'll eventually be closed out. --- There are no life-saving skills, only suckers who deserve to be played. --- Try small amounts first, don’t go all in right away. --- Even if you see the market correctly, it’s useless, a slippage can wipe you out.
