Newbies just starting with contracts: Never treat "leverage" as "capital"; controlling risk is the key. Newcomers to contracts are often attracted by the characteristic of "leverage amplifying profits," always thinking that "with enough leverage, I can quickly double my money." However, as a seasoned player with 8 years of experience in the contract market, I must remind you: newcomers who treat leverage as capital will have a 90% chance of stumbling during the first major market fluctuations—either thinking "small leverage earns too slowly," immediately using 100x leverage, and facing forced liquidation even if the market only moves against them by 1%; or making some money and blindly increasing leverage, thinking "let’s profit more while it’s good," but then when the market slightly retraces, all previous profits are wiped out, and they end up losing their principal, only to complain that "leverage is too risky," without realizing it’s their complete lack of understanding of risk. Contracts are never about "gambling on size with leverage," but rather "relying on risk control for steady profits." In these 8 years, I have never dared to use more than 10x leverage casually; before placing an order, I always calculate "how much loss I can tolerate at most," set a stop-loss line before ordering, and even if I encounter sudden market movements, I can exit in time; I have also often reduced positions during volatile markets to avoid triggering stop-losses due to frequent fluctuations. It wasn’t until later that I understood: those who can continuously profit from contracts are not those who "gamble correctly once with high leverage," but those who have strict principles for using leverage, a clear bottom line for risk tolerance, and can restrain the impulse for "quick gains"—these seemingly "conservative" practices make it difficult for newcomers who rely solely on hearing "stories of getting rich with leverage" and blindly following others to avoid the trap of liquidation, no matter how long they operate. Newbies who want to navigate the contract market with fewer detours should stop treating "leverage" as "capital." Find a mentor who understands risk control to learn about the risks associated with different leverage levels, learn to adjust positions based on market conditions, and develop the habit of "starting with small positions and strict stop-losses" to keep accounts safe during volatility, instead of turning their principal into a "sacrifice" under high leverage. After all, controlling risk allows you to seize opportunities, and maintaining a stable mindset enables you to go further. $ETH
