#数字资产市场动态 In contract trading, what is the cruelest truth?

You master all candlestick patterns, study on-chain data until dawn, and can preemptively position yourself whenever a macro policy is announced—yet your account still shrinks. What does this indicate?

Technical analysis is just a ticket; psychology is the battlefield that determines life or death.

I’ve seen many traders who are familiar with various charts and can accurately identify breakout points, scanning on-chain data daily. But once they enter real trading, they repeatedly suffer losses. The reason is simple: the market doesn’t assess how much you "know," only how long you can "endure."

When panic selling occurs at low levels, you get scared and dare not buy. When you see others making money at high levels, you get envious and jump in, only to get harvested. This is the fate of trading—greed and fear take turns controlling your decisions.

Many believe in the myth of "small funds relying on short-term rolling." Earning ten points today, twenty points tomorrow, dreaming of quick doubling through frequent trades. But what is the reality? Fees and slippage quickly eat up more than half of the principal, and the rest is repeatedly harvested by your own emotions. The more you trade, the thinner your account becomes.

And those who truly grow small funds into large ones? They share a common trait—they can persist. Once they recognize a trend, they hold firm, not anxious about short-term fluctuations, letting time ferment the market. This requires not more intelligence, but more stability.

Speaking of leverage, most people's risk control logic is reversed. They first calculate "when will they get liquidated," which is not risk control—it's gambling mentality.

True risk control is like this: before opening a position, clearly define "the maximum loss for this trade," set a stop-loss line, and decisively exit when reached—no bargaining. Money can be earned again, but if liquidated, everything is lost.

Technical analysis is the foundation, giving you the qualification to enter. But what allows you to survive longer in the market? A mature trading system, strict discipline, and restraint over internal impulses.

Stop blaming the market’s weirdness or the manipulations of the big players. Most stories of liquidation stem not from the market but from the mirror. Most people fall into a loss cycle not because of weak analysis skills, but because they lack that string—execution.

Opportunities are never absent in the market; what’s missing is your patience and discipline.
