The world of contract trading has never lacked stories, but most end with liquidation. The difference is—some learn to survive, others do not.

To go further in this volatile market, what you need is not boldness, but awareness of the rules. The following five rules are survival principles summarized by countless practical traders based on their account balances:

**Stop-loss must be strict, luck should be avoided**

Set your stop-loss level and actually execute it—this sounds ridiculously simple, but very few people stick to it. Exit when hit, with no expectation of rebounds or luck. Protecting your principal always comes first.

**Stop after consecutive losses; adjustment is key**

Continuous losses are often signals—perhaps the market rhythm is off, or your state is problematic. Instead of forcing to continue, it’s better to exit proactively and stay away from the market for a few days. Sometimes, the best trading decision is to not trade.

**Take profits when earned; don’t push all in**

When your account has a decent profit, withdraw some to your wallet. This not only locks in risk but also keeps your mindset clear—so you don’t forget who you are just because of unrealized gains on paper.

**Follow the trend, avoid chaotic oscillations**

Clear trending markets often offer the best risk-reward ratio. In contrast, those disorderly sideways movements tend to consume both your principal and patience. Choosing the right battlefield is crucial.

**Operate with small positions, leave room for maneuver**

Control the proportion of each position relative to your total funds; overly large positions can distort your mindset. Small positions help maintain rationality and give you the chips to continue trading in subsequent trends.

Contracts are not machines for quick wealth; they are a long-term battle. Don’t wait until liquidation to regret—internalize these five rules into your trading discipline. Steady progress, grasp each clear trend, and ultimately, you will be the winner. Mindset and discipline are the ultimate secrets of contract trading.
