Contract Get Liquidated rate 99%! Why are some people still crazy about sending money? The truth: You don't even know how to calculate risks!



1. Fatal Misconception: What you think is "security" is actually a trap of real leverage.

The "5x/10x leverage" displayed by the exchange is just a platform risk control measure and has nothing to do with your actual risk!
Real Leverage = Your Position ÷ Your Stop Loss Funds
For example: Principal of 10,000 U, opening a 10x leverage. If the stop loss is only set at 100 U, the actual leverage is 100x!
90% of people fail at the first step by miscalculating the real risk.

2. The 3 "suicidal" operations of those who get liquidated, have you fallen for them?

1. Anti-single: Not giving up after losses, stubbornly holding on until getting liquidated;
2. All-in: Betting fully on one direction, leaving no way out for yourself;
3. Emotional Margin Trading: When in loss, wanting to "make up for it", the more you add, the more wrong it gets, accelerating Get Liquidated.
You didn't lose to the market; you actively gave the market the opportunity to "kill" you.

3. The brutal truth: Contracts are not investments, they are a "body-snatching" game.

Q: Where does the money earned from the contract come from?
Answer: It’s all the money lost by those who get liquidated!
In a bull market, retail investors chase the rise and get trapped, while experts short at high positions to "pick up money";
In a bear market, retail investors panic and sell at a loss, while experts buy the dip and "pick up corpses."
Market fluctuations are not important; the key is whether you can survive until the "money-picking moment."

Fourth, those who survive are doing these 2 things.

1. Be a "risk manager", not a "dreamer".
Dreamer: "This coin can rise 100 times! Go all in!" (Outcome: Get Liquidated)
Manager: "Profit and loss ratio 3:1, test order 5% position, stop loss clear." (Outcome: Survive and wait for opportunities)
2. Remember the secrets of professional traders.
"80% of the time, you hold cash waiting for opportunities, and 20% of the time, you accurately pick up money" - You are not here to trade; you are here to wait for others to make mistakes.

5. Final Warning: If you don't want to be a "cash machine", make sure to follow this one rule first.

If you can't control the risks (can't calculate the real leverage, can't change the all-in/anti-single), then don't touch contracts!
Otherwise, you are not "making money"; you are giving money to others.
First learn how to "Get Liquidated", then talk about making big money.
