I've been trading contracts for eight years, growing my account from $5,000 to seven figures, and I’ve never had a single liquidation.

It’s not luck—it’s because I treat trading as a probability game: set the rules in stone and stick to them strictly. The market will give you the answer.

# # **First, how to lock in profits**

Before opening any position, stop-loss and take-profit points must be set in advance. This isn't a suggestion—it's an iron rule.

Account profit hits 10%? Cut it in half immediately: move half to a cold wallet and lock it away, let the other half keep rolling in the account. If the market is good, let profits run; if it crashes, at least you’ve secured half.

Your principal is more important than anything. As long as it survives, you have a chance to come back.

Over the years, I’ve withdrawn profits more than 30 times. The biggest was $180,000 in a single week. This isn’t bragging—it’s to tell you: money not in your pocket is just an illusion.

# # **Next, how to position without stepping in traps**

Where others get liquidated is often the pivot point of a trend.

My method uses three layers of filters: daily chart for the big picture, 4-hour chart to define the trading range, and 15-minute chart to time entry.

For the same coin, I'll place two orders at the same time: Order A goes long with the trend, Order B goes short against the trend, with each order’s risk capped at 1.5% of total funds.

In ranging markets, harvest both sides; in trending markets, at least one side makes money.

During the LUNA crash, both my orders hit take profit at the same time, and my account was up 40% that day. That wasn’t about perfect prediction—the structure itself was designed to be fault-tolerant.

# # **Finally, how to survive**

Stop-loss isn’t admitting defeat, it’s the cost of trading.

My system’s win rate is only 40%, but my risk-reward ratio is 4:1, so over the long run, it’s consistently profitable.

Core rules boil down to three things:

Divide funds into 10 portions, with no more than 3 portions in play at any time;
After two consecutive losses, stop trading immediately—never chase the market out of frustration;
After doubling your account, withdraw 20% to allocate to other assets.

The market isn’t afraid of you losing money—it’s afraid you’ll go all-in and get wiped out.

As long as you’re still at the table, time will eventually be on your side. The truly great traders aren’t the ones who catch the most opportunities, but the ones who manage risk the best.
