Do you remember Big West Hanner's move? Shorted TRB on OK Exchange, and as a result, the leverage liquidation led to bankruptcy. This guy's trading style is almost identical to how some people operate now.



What seems like a simple short strategy can quickly wipe out your account if the leverage ratio is set improperly or stop-losses are not well managed. Although OK Exchange's margin mechanism offers platform protection, during strong rebounds from the counterparty, liquidation can happen so fast that you have no time to react.

This isn't the first time, and it won't be the last. Every year, people repeat the same mistakes—high leverage, small stop-losses, large positions. The final outcome is just like Big West Hanner's, with the account wiped out.

Leverage is really a trap, a single all-in and it's gone --- Setting stop-losses is so important, yet some people still don't do it. No wonder they get liquidated --- It's always the same pattern, why do some people keep jumping into the trap --- Liquidation happens in that very moment, there's no time to react --- When you're watching the show, don't forget your account is also on the edge of danger --- The bankruptcy of Daxiha was already tragic enough, and now some people are still learning from him? --- High leverage is a gambler's game, don't talk about strategies --- Account bloodbath happens in the blink of an eye, friends, be careful

Leverage really is a ruthless game that devours everything. Watching Big West's story reminds me of my friends—each one greedier than the last.

Leverage is really a gambler's playground; a single all-in can wipe out your account. --- It's the same story with high leverage every time, always the same script. --- Basically, it's greed. Not setting a proper stop-loss will definitely lead to big losses. --- I just want to ask, why do you have to play with such high leverage? Do you really want to go bankrupt? --- I've seen the big moves of , really stupid, but we haven't avoided making the same mistakes ourselves. --- At the moment of liquidation, I guess the intestines are all regretful, and piling up lessons is useless. --- OK, that margin mechanism can't save those who won't set a stop-loss. --- Every year, a batch dies, and it will continue next year. Why can't this cycle ever stop? --- Small stop-loss combined with high leverage—this combo is even more deadly than a timed bomb.

Leverage is really a money-making machine for the little guys; there's always someone rushing to send money forward and backward. --- The bankruptcy of Da Xiha should have been a wake-up call long ago, but still, people keep rushing headlong into danger. --- Basically, it's greed. Setting stop-losses too tight, over-leveraging positions, and a quick rebound means game over. --- Okay, the margin mechanism can't withstand market volatility at all; liquidation happens in seconds. --- High leverage is fun, but anyone who has experienced an account wipeout knows how it feels. --- Why are these mistakes so hard to fix? It's the same old routine year after year. --- Seeing news like this, you can predict who will be the next to go bankrupt. A moment of impulsiveness and they go all-in on leverage.

I've long heard about Big West Ha's bankruptcy history; it's truly a living negative example. Are people still playing with leverage like this? That's really incredible. --- Liquidation is as common as eating, but the key question is why are some people still not learning their lessons? --- Stop-loss is essentially a matter of survival; yet many people refuse to listen. --- The margin mechanism on OK is actually unable to save greedy people; ultimately, it's a matter of human nature. --- This cycle repeats every year, and I'm starting to get aesthetic fatigue. --- High leverage combined with small stop-losses is a ticking time bomb; if it doesn't explode, there's no justice.

Leverage is really a dividing line between quick wealth and quick bankruptcy. --- Another one repeating the same routine... who will it be this time? --- Failing to set proper stop-losses is truly a gamble with your life; the account can be gone in an instant during a rebound. --- No matter how many people fall into this trap, they never learn their lesson. Truly incredible. --- High leverage is like playing Russian roulette, just with unfavorable odds for you. --- The Da Xiha incident hasn't even passed, and new people are coming to send money again? --- The OK liquidation mechanism is essentially instant kill; even a slight delay means kneeling. --- Why do some people always think they can escape this disaster... --- Small stop-losses with large positions—this combo is a ticking time bomb.
