#数字资产市场动态 High leverage trading is addictive. Want to walk away completely? Honestly, it's difficult.
I know a guy who initially just wanted to try his luck,投入了500美元。结果一晚上翻到2万,那时候他以为自己找到了点金术,轻松赚钱这事儿就跟呼吸一样。
Good times didn't last long. Full position trading, chasing orders nonstop, stubbornly holding losses, his account went from 20,000 to just a few dollars in a turn. He lost, yes, but that drive had already taken root.
Since then, he’s been staring at K-line charts day and night, not enjoying meals, sleeping poorly, muttering "high leverage kills greed," and when the market moves, he’s more aggressive than anyone. That’s the contradiction—fear and obsession coexist.
The core of high leverage trading is one word: fast. With 100x leverage, if you bet on the right direction once, your account can explode in value instantly. Compared to funds that move a few points a day, this is much faster; more exciting than a casino—win and you’re in heaven, lose and you’re in hell. Funds are steady, but high leverage can fluctuate hundreds of points in minutes, as common as eating.
The key is, once you’ve experienced that thrill of seeing your account soar in seconds, only one obsession remains: to win back all the losses.
But what’s the reality? — Most people don’t even get a chance to turn things around before their accounts are completely blown up.
That’s why high leverage trading, once you get hooked, is almost impossible to escape. It’s not that you don’t understand the risks; it’s that the spe

Haha, this is the guy I know. He's still in the group every day shouting about turning things around.

It really hits home. My buddy is like this right now, asking me every day how to turn things around. I don't even know how to advise him anymore.

Damn, this is exactly how I felt last year. The night I went from 500 to 15,000, I couldn't sleep at all. Thinking about it now still gives me chills.

Really, the thrill of going all-in in one shot is more exhilarating than anything, and there's no turning back.

Really, once you've experienced the thrill of instant wealth in seconds, there's no turning back.
