No need to beat around the bush: When you're leveraging or borrowing on the chain, your biggest fear isn't misjudging the market direction, but the oracle's "price feed" being slow by half a beat. If the price drops outside and the chain hasn't reacted yet, you might think you're safe, but the liquidation line is already on its way; when the price feed updates and liquidation bots swarm in, it's over in a flash, and you don't even have time to add margin. Conversely, if the market dips and then recovers, the delay in the price feed can also "accidentally" trigger your liquidation, leading to a poor experience. Recently, I also heard that some regions are increasing taxes and tightening regulations, making everyone more cautious about deposits and withdrawals, which can cause volatility to accelerate with sudden surges and stops... My own discipline is pretty simple: don't keep your position right at the liquidation line, leave some buffer, use more stable collateral for key positions, and if you're really playing, rehearse your exit strategy first—don't wait until the chain forces you out.
