#美联储降息 This thing called a contract is so ruthless—it never gives you a buffer for trial and error. Either rely on self-discipline to climb out of the pit, or be eaten by leverage.
I've seen too many scenarios. A newbie throws in a few thousand U, dreaming of doubling in a week, only to be frequently liquidated, finally cursing the market to death.
I've also crossed this line. In the beginning, I used 8000U, watched the charts until midnight every day, and when floating losses widened, my palms would sweat. Several times, I was just one bad news away from liquidation. Later, I managed to survive—not because luck favored me, but because I finally saw clearly—liquidation is not an accident; it's a bill of cognition that must be paid sooner or later.
Do you think 3x or 5x leverage is safe? Honestly, that's just delaying the death sentence. Leverage, risk-wise, is not linearly increasing but exploding exponentially. Plus transaction fees, slippage, and the hidden costs of frequent operations, silently bleeding you dry.
The most heartbreaking fact is this mathematical truth—many people haven't even calculated:
Losing 50% requires doubling to break even; losing 90% means a 9x increase to fill the gap.
And then? Some keep adding, reinvesting, increasing positions, dying faster each time, until the account is wiped out.
I can achieve stable profits, not by some prediction magic, but by mastering one tool—the Bollinger Bands. Not just looking at superficial golden or death crosses, but observing when they contract (a sign of brewing change) and when they expand (the trend really starts). Before any trend explosion, the market leaves traces: the tighter the contraction, the more powerful the subsequent breakout.
Using this logic, I once achieved 30x returns in a month. It’s not a fairy tale, but the result of discipline:
• Never trade based on emotions, only follow signals • Enter when it's time, cut losses when needed, no hesitation • Turn off feelings, let rules automatically manage the account
If you're still trading blindly on intuition, experiencing countless liquidations but can't find the problem—it's not luck, but the lack of a long-term sustainable trading system. Staring at K-line charts, the easiest thing to deceive is your own eyes.
The next wave of the market is gathering strength. To go far, you first need to learn how not to be buried by the market.

I've seen too many stories like "I earn 30 times a month." Honestly, it's a bit exhausting.
Those who treat Bollinger Bands as a holy grail will basically not survive the next bear market.

Here we go again with the Bollinger Bands explanation, I've heard it countless times, and in the end, I still get trapped.

It's that same old story of "I made 30x profits by discipline," I'm tired of hearing it.
It's not wrong but not entirely correct either. The Bollinger Bands narrowing and widening can indeed help avoid risks, but those who truly make money are never just relying on indicators—they depend on luck + timing + capital size.
I understand when beginners blow up their accounts, but blaming your "cognitive ledger" for wiping out your account? Often, it's just sudden market negative news causing a sell-off. No matter how strict your discipline is, it can't save you in such situations. Don't speak too confidently.
