A money-losing tip for every day: Heavy positions + High leverage
Many newcomers to the cryptocurrency space first react not by learning risk management, but by trying to understand one thing:
"With this little capital, how can I turn things around without using leverage?"
Thus, heavy positions + high leverage became the fastest way for beginners to pay tuition.
Let’s state the conclusion:
Heavy positions and high leverage are not "likely to lose,"
but rather, you will definitely lose; it’s just a matter of time.
Why?
Many people think:
Leverage = Amplified profits
But the reality is:
Leverage amplifies volatility.
And what’s most common in the market is not a one-sided trend,
but rather:
Fluctuations + back and forth sweeping liquidity.
This leads to the most heartbreaking scenario:
You correctly see the direction,
you didn’t misread the trend,
but you—
don’t survive long enough to see the market truly move.
Stop-losses get swept, forced liquidations occur,
it's not that your skills are lacking,
but rather, the position structure was wrong from the beginning.
Do you know what type of users exchanges prefer?
Not the ones making money, but these four types:
1️⃣
Love heavy positions
2️⃣
Love high multiples
3️⃣
Love frequent trading
4️⃣
Love holding positions
Because in their eyes:
Stop-loss = Liquidity
Liquidation = Counterparty
Transaction fees = Stable cash flow
You think you are taking a "chance,"
but in reality, you are just providing fuel to the market.
The ones who can truly stay in the market for the long term are often just these types of people:
• Light positions, avoiding irreversible fatal wounds
• Low leverage, or even no leverage, able to withstand volatility
• Prioritizing "survival"
• Valuing certainty over odds
It’s not that they don’t want to make big money,
but they understand one thing:
Opportunities are always more abundant than capital.
If you are still:
Thinking of turning around with one or two heavy positions
Thinking of solving life problems with 20x, 50x
Then you are not trading,
you are accelerating your exit.
No mysticism, no course selling,
just saying those—
things you will eventually understand when you pay tuition.
The last sentence is very realistic:
If you are already trading,
choose an exchange with low transaction fees,
this is the most basic, but also the most important step.
