Basically, if you can't hold spot positions and your contracts keep wanting to "scale up," in the end, it's not the market that blows up, but your positions. My simple advice: first, treat yourself as someone who will make mistakes, and then make sure each mistake is affordable. Don't go all-in on spot at once; leave yourself some room for "when the tide goes out, you can still float." For contracts, it's even simpler—leverage that can put you to sleep is your real leverage; otherwise, you're just paying tuition to the market. Recently, AI Agents and automated trading are hot topics again, and many people are praising "full automation printing money," while their wallets are authorizing transactions at lightning speed… (don't ask me how I know) Anyway, I prefer to take it slow, watching big players on the chain come in and out like tides. No matter how smart the robots are, they can't save you if your safety and position stability are compromised.
