#数字资产市场动态 Contracts are an opportunity for ordinary people to turn things around, but at the same time, they are also the easiest place to fall in and never get out — I've wanted to say this for a long time.
I've seen too many beginners, holding a few hundred or thousand dollars in their pockets, with their minds full of "take profits when doubled." But in reality? Three days of hot blood, four days of panic, and finally a loud bang — the account is wiped out, and the person collapses.
Don't misunderstand, I'm not looking down from above and talking coolly. I started with 8,000 yuan back then, falling over and over in the market. There were several times when I was really close to losing everything, trembling so much I couldn't hold my phone. But I survived, and I’m getting more stable.
Why can I survive? To be honest: contracts themselves don't kill people; reckless behavior does.
Many people see liquidation as a sudden disaster, but in fact, they dug their own pits. Most people think they are stable, but in reality, they are just dying a little slower than others. Relying on feelings to trade, gambling on adding positions out of anger, setting stop-losses based on luck — the endgame of this approach is only one thing.
Here's a math problem: losing 90% means you need a 900% gain to get back to the original capital, which is a tenfold increase. This is not a joke; it's cold, hard math.
Later, I realized that the market trends of coins like $HFT, $BTC are not about gambling with courage, but about using wisdom to judge. Before every trade, do you have your own trading system in mind? Or is it just feeling, following the crowd, listening to others shouting orders?
If you're still stuck in this vicious cycle — liquidation, reinvesting, exploding again, and chaos — then stop. Think carefully. Confusion, losses, and lack of direction are signals telling you it's time to make a change.
The market is never short of opportunities; what’s lacking are disciplined and planned people.

That hits too close to home. I am that fool who is passionate for three days and collapses for four.

Losing 90% and needing ten times the gain to break even—I've been crunching these math problems all night and couldn't sleep.
---
Without a system, it's just gambling. Now I finally understand.
---
That part about trembling hands while holding the phone is so real. I've been through that too, and I didn't dare look at the market during those days.
---
Trading based on feelings is digging your own grave. This should be posted on every exchange.
---
Stop and think—this sentence hits the hardest because I'm currently stuck in a vicious cycle.
---
Starting with 8,000 yuan and still able to survive—there's some meaning to that. Much more honest than most people.

The market isn't lacking opportunities; it's lacking discipline. I need to engrain this in myself.

That's true, but how many actually survive? Most of them die in the dream of "turning the tables" in the next round.

Really, a contract is just a dice, and all it rolls out are undisciplined people.
Have you heard of stop-loss, brother? It's not just an ornament.
Losing 90% and then doubling your money... just thinking about it is despairing, I don't want to, but it's despairing.
I feel like I should have quit trading long ago. Listen to me— that's called gambling.
Relying on anger to add positions, you'll eventually have to settle the bill.
Having a trading system or not—that's the difference between life and death.
Still stuck in a vicious cycle, I advise you to wake up.

To be honest, those who survive are tough people. Most people die because of overconfidence; I've seen too many cases.

Really, I've heard too many stories of "this time will definitely make money," and then nothing happened afterward.
I've been through the same thing. Watching beginners' actions now feels like watching my own old tapes, it hurts.
