Just added more PIPPIN positions, and the market immediately reversed, almost causing a liquidation. This position was borrowed with a few thousand USDT. Watching the market fluctuations now really makes me a bit scared. If this coin rises to 0.5, my leveraged position will be completely wiped out.

Recently, trading futures has taught me one thing deeply—the money borrowed for trading changes your mindset entirely. When chasing positions, you get emotional, and only when the liquidation risk actually appears do you realize how dangerous it is. Looking at the K-line of BTC and PIPPIN, although there are some fluctuations, risk management really cannot be neglected.

I advise everyone who wants to use leverage to carefully calculate their stop-loss levels. Don’t play with your heartbeat like I did.

PIPPIN-5,27%

BTC0,8%

Borrowing money to leverage is really playing with fire. If you keep going like this, you'll eventually suffer a major loss.

Oh no, borrowing money to trade cryptocurrencies is just gambler's mentality, and it’s hard to change. Leverage is really a double-edged sword; it’s great when you make money, but when you lose, it’s a heart attack. Stop-loss? Easy to say, but when the moment comes, no one can bear to cut. I'm also watching PIPPIN, but the volatility is too high, I can't afford to play, brother. Chasing positions is the most harmful; chasing once and regretting ten times. That’s why I only trade small amounts now. Borrowing money to trade is basically a suicidal move. Candlestick charts are all lies; we are just leeks, might as well accept our fate.

Damn, borrowing money to chase positions? You're asking for death, brother. Just seeing your post makes me think of those big liquidation cases from last time.

Borrowed money really changes people; a moment of impulsiveness and everything is lost. That's why I never touch leverage. Watching you all play with high stakes just makes me tired. Have you set your stop-loss properly? Otherwise, just wait to be instantly wiped out, haha. PIPPIN is really exciting, but trading with borrowed money is truly reckless. Another story of being taught a lesson by the market in the opposite direction, classic.

Borrowing money to trade cryptocurrencies ultimately means borrowing money to repay debts. I am someone who has been through it. In that moment of increasing your position, your mind really isn't clear, and your mentality has long been shattered. PIPPIN is such a risky thing, yet you still dare to leverage. Bro, you're really brave. Stop-loss? Most people just talk about it, but when it really hits the point, they just can't bear to cut. That's why I now only use idle funds. Trading with borrowed money simply keeps me from sleeping well.
