Last night, in one trade, my account went from 80,000 USDT to 136,000 USDT.



It wasn’t luck—it was because I waited seven hours before making a move.

A lot of people get liquidated, and it’s really not the market’s fault.

With an account of 10,000 USDT, they open positions worth 30,000 USDT—the platform shows 10x leverage, but in reality, you’re running naked at 30x or 50x. Any slight market fluctuation, and you go straight to zero.

Futures trading isn’t about who has the most guts.

I only watch three signals: market sentiment, price levels, and position distribution. Only when all three line up is it worth taking action. The rest of the time? I just wait.

When others are chasing the pumps or panic selling, I’m watching the moves of the big players.
When others get liquidated and exit, I’m picking up the positions they leave behind.

Leverage has never been a gambling tool—only reckless people are gambling with their lives.

The real logic behind making money is simple: control your position size with discipline, time your entries with precision, and let the odds work in your favor. Profits will naturally follow.

The futures market isn’t short on opportunities—it’s short on people who can survive until those opportunities arrive.

Taking action after 7 hours, I really can't learn this patience, but I did make money Wait, you say that people opening 30,000 positions with 10,000 USDT are just naked trading, is the platform's 10x leverage marked as a scam? Wow, when others get liquidated and you buy the chips, this game of chess is played quite tough Honestly, it's still about living long enough to make money, that hits hard You only act when all three signals align? Then most of the time you're just waiting, can't stand this loneliness It seems like experts are just idling around

Waited 7 hours before taking action, I have to admit. Most people just can't resist and have to chase a high point to feel secure, and then there's nothing after that.

Waiting 7 hours before taking action—that's real. Most people can't hold on that long; their hands start to itch.

7 hours of waiting makes a real difference. I’m the same way; when I’m not in a hurry, I make the most solid gains. --- That’s right, it really comes down to patience. Most people lose because they act at the wrong time. --- I’ve learned this logic the hard way; now I only take action when three conditions are met. --- Wow, from 80,000 to 136,000, this is the difference between having discipline and not having discipline. --- That last sentence is brilliant. Only by staying alive can you wait for the next wave. Those in a hurry will never see it. --- I just want to ask, how do you determine the signals for chip distribution? Seeking advice. --- So true. All my friends who got liquidated were tricked by leverage; they had no idea how much leverage they were actually using. --- Waiting itself is a trading strategy. Unfortunately, 99% of people can’t wait five minutes and start messing around.

It took me 7 hours before I dared to make a move. That's the difference between me and those who get liquidated three times a day.

Wait 7 hours before taking action? That's just ridiculous. I often can't resist and open a position instantly, and as a result, I end up with nothing but stop-loss orders all week. Looks like I really need to work on my discipline.

Wait 7 hours to flip 69%? That takes a lot of patience. I don’t have that kind of endurance.

7 hours of waiting for a 68% return—this is how contracts are meant to be played. Most people fail at the step of "jumping in just because they have money."

Waiting 7 hours for an opportunity—that’s what a real trader does. I’ve seen too many people treat leveraged trading like a game, and when their account is gone, they still ask what happened.
