Contracts seem glamorous on the surface, but behind the scenes, they are a pit that devours people without spitting out bones. Clearly, there are countless people getting liquidated, yet everyone keeps jumping in one after another. Why? It's too intoxicating.
1️⃣ The Magic of Leverage: Small Capital Plays Big Scenes $UAI
A few hundred dollars in margin can directly turn into tens of thousands with leverage. As soon as the market moves slightly, the account numbers shoot up – who can withstand that feeling? Getting rich only requires the illusion of a moment.
2️⃣ Long and short positions both profit, feeling like a gambling god $MON
When the market rises, you can earn; when it falls, you can also earn. There are big news in the crypto circle every day, and when you get carried away, you think "this wave is stable!" The market then turns around and gives you a lesson: dream on.
3️⃣ The culture of showing off is the most toxic drug$PIPPIN
In the moments of social media and group chats, there are screenshots of 10x and 20x achievements everywhere. Get Liquidated? Not a chance. What you see is all survivor bias, thinking you can replicate it, but in the end, you just copied someone else's "performance."
4️⃣ High leverage is a double-edged sword, it comes so fast that you can't blink.
When it rises, it soars; when it falls, it disappears in a second. The cryptocurrency market can turn on a dime; with just one piece of news, your position might have already gone to zero. Reaction time? Non-existent.
Going solo is easy to fail, following the right rhythm is the way to go.
Contracts can make money, but it depends on mindset and position management. No stop-loss, random opening of positions, and emotional trading - just one of these is enough to get you in trouble. With a reliable strategy and team rhythm, the outcome is completely different.
6️⃣ Finally, let me say a few human words.
The contract itself is not wrong; the mistake is treating it like a casino. Want to play? Remember these few points:
❌ Don't go all in ❌ Don't go heavy on positions ❌ Set Stop Loss ❌ Only use money you can afford to lose ❌ Go with the flow, don't go against the trend
The survival rule in the cryptocurrency world is simple: being alive is more important than getting rich overnight. The market will not show mercy because of your courage.

It's the same old story again, but does anyone really listen? I see half of the people have already gone all in.

To put it bluntly, this is a textbook on gambler psychology. I've seen so many people go all in with a full position and then cry poor at two in the morning.
Look at this article; every point is a lesson learned from blood and tears. Especially that culture of showing off, it's unbelievable; I've never seen anyone show a screenshot of getting liquidated.
Really, the words stop loss are worth more than anything, yet nobody listens.
The thrill of turning 500 into 50,000 is indeed hard to resist; I understand that, but the cost is too harsh.
Actually, the key is the mindset. Once you get carried away, it's over; you can't see the market clearly at all.

After watching it so many times, I still can't figure out why I say "this wave is stable" every time, and as a result, the account begins to perform the magic of disappearing
Seriously, stop-loss is like a condom, it's usually troublesome, and when something happens, your intestines are repentant
I've long been tired of those 10 times screenshots in the circle of friends, and I haven't seen anyone post a liquidation, haha
Levers are really drugs, and once you taste that pleasure, you can't stop
In fact, in a word, 99% of people in the currency circle are gambling, but some people will stop losses and some will not
The market is gone with a turnaround account, and this speed is really amazing
How are those buddies in Stud now, I haven't seen them post on Moments for a long time

It's this same old rhetoric again. What’s the deal? Are you trying to dissuade people or pump them into a trap?
I've seen too many brothers who said "this time it's really stable" end up losing everything. The show-off culture really hits home, it’s truly poison.
They say that living is more important than getting rich, but they still get carried away and leverage themselves again. People, huh.

I watched it once, and it was quite heart-wrenching. The guys around me are like that, with a few thousand yuan in capital, they insist on using 20x leverage, and in the end, it’s gone in two days.
And those who show off every day, I don't believe them. Ten times, twenty times, what about getting liquidated? Just delete it.
That being said, contracts can indeed make money, but the premise is to have discipline; most people just don't have that mentality. All in, heavy position, emotional trading is just looking for death. I'm now doing small experiments, and stop loss must be set, otherwise I can't sleep.
