I rarely solder them. Normally I slide a small metal tube (swag) over the cable, loop the cable through the attachment, turnbuckle, or whatever is at the end, run the tag end of the cable back through the swag and crimp. Finally, I take the tag end and bend it 90 degrees as at comes out of the swag and cut it close so as not to leave a protruding point. This final bend helps keep the cable from sliding back through the swag. By the way, the swag must be pushed as far up against the terminal end as far as possible. If you don't, it will do it later.
Now if you are using flat flying wires, that's a different animal.
