I want to share some recent trading experiences. After the price of this type of coin pumps, there often tends to be a pullback, so I chose to enter with a 5x short order, setting the liquidation price near 10x, the stop loss at around 7, and a take profit target of 2.5. Although I didn't anticipate such a deep fall in the middle of the night, fortunately, the take profit order provided protection, and in the end, I still made a profit.
Observing the traders around, some have made quite a bit in this wave, but others have been hit hard. What's the difference? I think the key lies in the different attitudes towards risk management. Using high leverage with naked trading (without take profit and stop loss) can indeed make quick money, but the risks are also exponential and can easily lead to problems.
Yesterday I also took a few losses in the swing. Looking back, most of the calls on the square are not very logical and can easily trap you. Instead of following the crowd, it's better to trust your own judgment - even if you occasionally lose, you feel more at ease because it's a decision you made yourself.

Take profit orders saved you, this is the value of discipline. Many people fail because they do not take profit.
Naked leverage does indeed make quick money, but it also leads to quick losses; I've seen too many go back to zero overnight.
Following the advocate is nine out of ten times a trap; even your own judgment is better than blindly copying homework.

The take profit order saved your life, this is the difference between those who understand risk control in the mempool and the suckers who are repeatedly played for suckers by sandwich attacks... To put it bluntly, it’s a discipline issue; that naked approach will eventually have to be paid back.

Take profit orders really save lives, otherwise I would have been hit hard by that wave of movement in the middle of the night.
Speaking of which, running naked and still daring to use high leverage, this guy is really brave, sooner or later something will happen.
The group of advocates in the square, no matter how good they sound, they need to be discounted, doing your own homework is the only reliable way.
