-98.59%, this is my "Trading Moment"



#MyGate Trading Moment

Just now, on June 11, 2026, at 22:11:14.
My ZECUSDT contract long position was liquidated at a price of 421.

Return rate: -98.59%.

Not a typo, not -9%, not -20%.
Almost completely wiped out.

How did it happen?

When I opened the position, ZEC just broke through a small platform, and I thought "It's safe."
The position was not light, the stop-loss was set too far — or rather, I didn't dare to set a real stop-loss.

The market first oscillated, and I told myself "Normal adjustment."
Then it started to accelerate downward, I hesitated, wanted to wait a bit longer.
What I got was not a rebound, but a liquidation notice.

That remaining 1.41%, not even enough for the smallest margin unit.

What I learned (earned with real money)

1️⃣ "Hold on a bit longer" is the most toxic four words in trading.
Hold a position ten times, maybe nine times it works, but one mistake and it's all over.

2️⃣ Stop-loss isn't set for yourself, it's for when the market loses control.
If your stop-loss level is hit and you still don't want to exit, it means your position is too heavy.

3️⃣ Don't fall in love with your position.
The market won't pity you just because you lost a lot.

Why am I sharing this?

Because Gate Square's event is right:
"Real trading experiences are worth discussing."

Losing money isn't shameful; refusing to admit it is.
I hope everyone who sees this post can check their current open orders —
Is your stop-loss set? Is your position too heavy?
If tonight's market hits you again, can you hold on?

-98.59%, this is my #MyGateTradingMoment.
Harsh, but real.

If you also have similar liquidation or forced closure experiences, share them.
Best daily content, consecutive posting, new user debut awards — none of that matters.
What matters is, we are truly discussing "trading itself."
