#数字资产行情上升 The Truth About Contract Trading: You're Not Losing Money, You're Losing Your Understanding of the Market
Everyone who has been in the crypto contract trading circle knows that beginners ask every day, "How can I make quick money," but the traders who survive are thinking, "How can I avoid losses." It may seem like a difference in phrasing, but in reality, this is the dividing line between experts and novices.
Many people think that risk is just the visible things like floating losses on the account, liquidation, or forced stop-losses. Little do they know, the most terrifying risks are precisely those invisible "silent killers" that you can't see or touch but truly exist.
For example:
You are convinced that the market will continue to rise, never considering that this might be the "final surge before a reversal."
You see the price can't go down anymore but fail to notice that "big players are quietly exiting."
You confidently add to your position to average down, unaware that "this resistance level has been tested and failed multiple times."
You think a rebound is imminent after a series of limit-downs, only to find out that "this is just a shakeout move by the main force."
These misjudgments won't kill you instantly, but they can accumulate like poison over time. Ultimately, what causes traders to completely blow up is often not a single large loss, but the result of years of repeated wrong judgments stacking up.

To be honest, I've seen too many people mess up by using the averaging down method to reduce costs. It's really not as simple as it seems.

That's so true. Every time I think I understand the market, it turns out to be a series of hidden knives.

Got caught in a trap again, this time I directly diagnosed the root cause accurately.

That hits too close to home. I'm the kind of person who can't stop myself from acting when I see a rebound.
