#数字资产生态回暖 Contract trading is essentially a battle against oneself.
$BTC In this wave of market movement, I took a hit — a seemingly stable direction, but due to greed and overleveraging, I was finally trapped by the market maker’s trap. Regretful, but it’s also a lesson learned the hard way.
The core principle of futures trading is actually very simple: survival is victory. Not losing money is equivalent to making money because it preserves your capital to continue trading. Many people fall prey to greed, holding onto winning positions instead of taking profits, only to see themselves blown out when the market reverses.
This time, I’ve learned my lesson from the loss, and I am re-evaluating my position management and risk control. The next trade must recover this loss, but the prerequisite is to stay alive. Discipline is more valuable than prediction skills — this is the harsh truth of our industry.

On-chain data speaks for itself. Which address did your liquidation funds flow to? That's the real question.

Really, greed is easy to talk about but hard to practice
It hits hard—selling at the right moment tests human nature the most
I almost got caught this time too, luckily I exited in time, or I’d be eating dirt again

This wave really hits the heart; greed is truly a trader's Achilles' heel.
Even after being trapped, you can still rationally summarize—much better than I can.
Being alive is winning. This sentence is just perfect... next time, I need to control my hand too.
