Honestly, holding spot positions isn't sustainable, and futures contracts keep getting liquidated—most likely it's not that you're wrong about the direction, but that your position size is too "forceful": once you place a trade, your emotions get pulled along with the price, wanting to chase after a small rise, panicking at a small dip, and in the end, you can only do short-term trades or have a heart that can't handle long-term holding.
My own plain-spoken advice: prioritize "not dying" first. Don't max out your position all at once; take it step by step. If you really want to use leverage, that's fine, but treat it as an accelerator, not a lifeline. Keep leverage small, set your stop-losses in advance, and if you lose, consider it a learning expense—don't stubbornly hold on until the system liquidates your position.
Recently, Meme coins and celebrity signals are back in hype, and attention shifts so quickly that newcomers are most likely to catch the last wave... Anyway, I’d rather earn a little less than rely on luck to survive. What about you?
