I find that many people can't hold onto spot positions, and their futures contracts get liquidated. To put it simply: don't let any single trade be qualified to send you out. Set your position size based on "the worst case loss I can sleep through," not on "this time feels stable"; it's okay to add to your position, but only gradually within the range you can afford to lose, rather than going all in and then praying.
Recently, there's been a lot of noise about staking, sharing security, and these "compound returns." My feeling is: after stacking layers upon layers, the risk also accumulates. What looks like interest might actually be hidden mines of volatility and liquidity. As for futures contracts, even more so—when volatility hits, you don't even have time to "refresh/retry." By the time you're waiting in line for matching, your mindset is already half-cracked... Anyway, I now prefer to earn a little less rather than get educated by an emotional trade. That's all for now.
