#我的Gate交易时刻 Today’s BTC contract has once again made me realize: the market will never move according to your expectations, but traders must execute according to their own plan.

This time I chose to short BTC with 10x leverage, opening at an average price of 62,710, but the market rebounded all the way to around 64,200, with a return rate once reaching -23.78%.
Watching the account continuously draw down, I certainly felt some fluctuations in my heart, but I didn’t rush to cut losses, nor did I emotionally add to my position, instead I re-evaluated my trading logic.
I found that, many times, losses are not because the direction was wrong, but because of issues with entry timing and position management.
High leverage amplifies gains but also amplifies emotions.
The hardest thing to beat in the market is not others, but yourself.
Trading is not a sprint, but a marathon.
Stay calm when profitable, stay disciplined when losing, only then can you survive in the market long-term.
Every order is a mark of growth; every drawdown is a test of cognition.
Losses are not scary; what’s scary is learning nothing after losing.
I hope that in the future, when I look back, this trade will just be a small episode on my trading journey.
