At 3 a.m., the trading interface is once again blood red. It's not your own orders blowing up, but someone in the group becoming a "liquidation experience officer."



Looking at the screen, I feel a bit speechless. Group members are still arguing whether "5x leverage is safe enough," not realizing that some have already been playing with 60x leverage to the death without even noticing. An account with 10,000 USDT can tolerate a maximum loss of 500, yet they dare to open a 30,000 position—this isn't just about 5x; it's a gamble on whether tomorrow will be gentle with you. If the market trembles even a little, you're gone. And those who truly know how to play have long treated your stop-loss orders as their own cash machines.

The essence of the contract world is so cruel: most people are not here to trade; they are here to be fuel.

But real experts play completely differently. They spend 70% of their time waiting, like lurking cheetahs. When they act, they are prepared—it's not gambling, but risk hedging and precise harvesting. Every penny they make comes from opponents who place orders based on "feelings" and "emotions."

So you might ask, what is the biggest confidence of these "hunters"?

You might be surprised: it's not that technical analysis is so powerful, nor that quantitative algorithms are so fast, but a "strategic core position" that will never blow up—the core funds always have a portion stored in stablecoins.

Why? Because in this anti-human game, stablecoins are the "mindset ballast." They prevent you from collapsing entirely after a single mistake. They are your anchor in extreme market conditions and your confidence to think calmly about the next step. Many top traders understand this well: managing risk isolation is far more important than making perfect predictions.

So next time someone tells you about a guaranteed winning leverage ratio, ask yourself—what's your escape route?

It's too straightforward, really speechless. Still watching this nonsense at 3 a.m., and the key is that those people don't realize they're playing with fire. --- Stop-loss orders as ATMs—this sentence hits home. --- The saying that stablecoins are the ballast is good, but most people simply can't maintain that mindset and will still go all-in. --- The guy using 60x leverage has probably already switched, how are things now? --- Daring to play with 60x leverage, and still discussing whether 5x is safe—it's really laughable. --- The key question is—do you have a way out? Most people haven't even thought about it. --- Cheetah waited 70% of the time before making a move, while we retail investors can't even wait five minutes—there's a huge gap. --- So in the end, it's just fuel—nothing else. --- Stablecoins are the lifeline; not many people understand this principle. --- It feels like those who trade based on emotions are the ones getting slaughtered—who's to blame?
