Hahaha, this is hilarious, you really hit the nail on the head.



The problem with us retail investors is that we’re all in the “I know all the theories” camp—we can talk a good game, but when it comes to actually trading, we still end up losing money 🤣.

Take myself for example. Not long ago, I clearly knew where the risks were, but I still went in, clinging to that bit of wishful thinking. The funniest part is, a couple days ago some buddies and I got together, and everyone swore up and down, “I’ll never touch leverage trades again in my life.” But after a few more drinks, turns out, damn, everyone’s accounts got liquidated recently 😂.

Birds of a feather flock together—guess we’re all the same. Sometimes I think, in this circle, what we have most are people saying “next time for sure” and “just one more try.” That gambler’s mindset is just incurable.

Haha, it's true, I just can't kick this habit. I know I shouldn't, but I just have to make a move. I promised myself I'd learn my lesson, but I turn around and dive right back in. I'm tired of saying "next time for sure."

Haha, that's so true. We're all like this—tough talkers but soft when it comes to action. "Next time for sure" is really a terminal illness, there's just no cure. It's only at the moment of liquidation that you truly understand what "I know all the principles" means. Alright then, let's keep waiting for the next rebound opportunity. We just can't stay idle, can we? That's how this circle is—looking down on each other while still seeking comfort together. Contracts, huh? Can you really quit just by saying so? Even thinking about it, I know I'm just dreaming.

Haha, I really can't hold it in with this group of people. They say they'll never get liquidated, but in reality, they all get completely wiped out. Seriously, quitting contracts is harder than quitting smoking. "Next time for sure" is the biggest lie. Same here. Every time I say this is the last trade, but I end up going back in...

To be honest, this is just a failure in risk assessment. If you ask me, instead of worrying about mindset issues, it’s better to first review whether those contracts' permission controls are truly strict—99% of liquidations are actually caused by code vulnerabilities.
