I took a huge loss on $PIPPIN, losing over a hundred thousand USDT in total. I thought I could make a comeback, but ended up getting in deeper and deeper—this is a classic case of "revenge trading" mentality at work.

Now I've finally figured it out: once I get out of this position, I will absolutely stay away from meme/altcoin contracts. The market makers' manipulation tactics are too dirty—this is simply not a game for retail traders.

I'm currently holding a short position. Although my unrealized profit isn't much, it's clear that the long-side capital is pulling out. With these low market cap tokens, it's all about patience and position management. A reminder to everyone still in the market: cutting losses is a thousand times more important than holding and hoping.

Over hundreds of thousands just gone like that, a revenge mentality really is poison.

Losing hundreds of thousands of dollars like this, revenge trading is really a poison --- Altcoins are just the playground for manipulators; retail investors are just feeding the sharks --- Not much floating profit on the short side, but what can I say? Before making a profit, people start teaching others to cut losses --- Getting out is still a distant hope; I advise you not to wait --- Stop-loss is important but hard to execute; easy to say --- Another person who has suffered losses and wants to advise others, but this time it's quite practical --- Contract coins are all bad; staying away is the best strategy --- Such obvious signals of fund withdrawal, yet some still hold short positions—quite brave --- Small-cap traps are too deep; I've also taken a fall --- Revenge trading kills, and the tuition fee of hundreds of thousands of dollars isn't cheap

It took investing over a hundred thousand to finally figure it out—this tuition is a bit expensive.

Hundreds of thousands of USDT just went down the drain, bro. This round of revenge trading could really lead to bankruptcy.

Hundreds of thousands of USDT, bro. Just consider this a tuition fee. Revenge trading really is poison—I’ve been down that road myself. What you said about stop-loss is spot on. I’ve suffered losses myself from not cutting in time. With small altcoins, the market makers really play tricks, and retail investors are just destined to get rekt.

Hundreds of thousands of USDT just gone like that. Revenge trading really is poison. --- The graveyard of shitcoin contract players—I almost ended up there too. --- With the tricks those market makers pull, retail investors don't stand a chance. Just accept the loss. --- Not much unrealized profit on your short? Then just wait to get dumped on, this coin should've died a long time ago. --- Talking about stop-loss is easy, but when it's time to actually take a loss, your brain just checks out. --- Another one harvested by PIPPIN. The vampire of shitcoins really lives up to its name. --- Position management? Most people can't do it at all, myself included. --- There's no hope of breaking even, might as well cut my losses and start over. --- How do you tell when long-side capital is withdrawing? Just try to feel it. --- This round was a real lesson—tuition was a bit steep, though.

Spent over a hundred thousand USDT just to learn this lesson—the tuition was way too painful, man.
