Frequent losses in contracts, then losing more and more to replenish the principal—how many people have truly broken this cycle?

Honestly, investors with smaller capital tend to suffer losses here. For example, someone with a total asset of 1 million only wants to try the contract with 100,000. It sounds cautious, but what’s the reality? When they make profits, they taste the sweetness; when they lose, they’re reluctant to cut losses. The proportion of the contract in the total investment begins to skyrocket, and the leverage multiplies accordingly. In the end, they might get completely carried away, turning that 100,000 into a risk exposure of 500,000 or even 1 million.

In contrast, those with relatively ample funds are much calmer. They don’t pursue extreme operations but follow the market’s long-term cycle. The clearer the cycle and the more long-term the thinking, the more naturally the win rate increases. Large capital isn’t created out of thin air; it’s accumulated from small beginnings. The key is choosing the right cycle and avoiding the trap of high leverage.

This bull market has actually provided many opportunities. By following the market rhythm, you’ll be surprised to find that making money isn’t as complicated as it seems. Many in the market now have starting funds between 200,000 and 300,000, yet they still feel their funds are insufficient. Don’t compete with the big players; your gap isn’t at the starting point but in the time accumulated.

Most importantly, adjust your mindset. Treat yourself as an ordinary person and accept the ordinary. Those legendary traders who are mythologized—just listen to their stories. You’ll experience what they’ve gone through. Going solo consumes too much energy—why not follow the rhythm of the majority? The direction is already there; it’s up to you whether you can truly keep up.
