Having navigated the contract market for these years, I’ve set three ironclad rules for myself. They are not mysterious techniques, but survival principles earned with real money.

1. Lock profits in stages; don’t chase after full gains
Prepare to defend when floating profits reach 8%, prioritize capital preservation before seeking profit; when exceeding 15%, reduce positions in batches, pocket some gains; at 25%, at least retain half of the profits. Your goal is not to sell at the peak, but to ensure each market fluctuation effectively translates into numbers in your account.

2. Stop when losses get out of control; don’t try to justify yourself
If the position drops more than 10% after opening, exit immediately. No questions asked, no excuses. Cutting losses is not a failure, but an acknowledgment that the current market rhythm is different from yours. Opportunities are daily, but your capital cannot withstand repeated depletion.

3. Dare to turn back after missing out; don’t be trapped by face
Profit-taking and the trend continues? As long as the core logic remains intact, and the price returns to the exit point, decisively re-enter. Transaction fees are just costs; collapsing emotionally because of missing out is the real loss. Maintaining a trading rhythm is far more important than obsessing over a specific price level.

In this market, choosing the entry point is just the beginning; grasping the exit point is where the real skill lies. Those who survive long-term may not always be the most accurate predictors, but they definitely know when to close the net and when to cast it again.

Remember: Discipline is not Plan B, but your only guiding principle from start to finish.
