Here's a summary of trading strategies for 2026, with several key points that must be remembered.
First, the ranking list of the top gainers may look impressive on the surface, but chasing high prices can easily lead to being trapped. Position sizing must be controlled, and only when there are highly certain opportunities should you moderately increase your position. This is the foundation of risk management.
Second, exit timing is more important than entry timing. Never be greedy with orders that have high funding fees; holding onto them is just losing money—entering such trades is even more unreasonable, so just pass on them.
The first thing to do at market open each day is to scan the market for opportunities with high certainty. Avoid ambiguous trends; be decisive in not engaging with them. This ensures each trade has a solid basis.
Cut off chaotic news that can lead you astray. If the funding fees are high, trading perpetual contracts might actually be a better choice—remember this.
Finally, set profit and loss targets for each trade in advance, and reserve sufficient funds to cope with various market changes. Only when the market direction is clearly judged is it worthwhile to hold a position.

That's right, the biggest fear is getting caught in a chase and being trapped
---
High capital fees are still being stubborn, isn't that losing money?
---
Taking profits is really more challenging to human nature than stopping losses
---
When the fee is high, I just switch to delivery directly, that's the smart way to play
---
Scanning the market every day must become a habit, otherwise it's easy to be led by news
---
If you control your position well, actually 90% of losses can be avoided
---
Ambiguous market conditions are just giving me a chance to make money? Definitely pass
---
Set your take profit and stop loss and then go to sleep, much more reliable than watching the screen every day
---
Just look at the top gainers, don't invest real money into it

It makes sense, but the execution is really outstanding... Those who chase the high are all lessons learned the hard way.

Basically, it's about not chasing the rise. You have to suffer losses to truly understand it.

That's right, chasing gains and selling losses is the easiest way to lose money
High-fee orders are really not worth it, it's just burning money
Develop the habit of scanning the market daily, otherwise you'll easily get caught chasing trends and get cut
If you manage your funds well, you've actually won more than half the battle

Exactly right, chasing the top gainers is a suicidal trade.

No problem with that, just afraid that knowing is one thing, but when trading, I might still be careless.
