Folks, don’t always blame the market or the “operators” for liquidation. Your position was already written to have this ending.
Many people, after losing, only complain that the market is targeting them. But if you just glance at your positions, you’ll see that the loss was already destined from the moment you opened the trade.
With a $3,000 account, you dare to enter with $2,000. You say it’s “light positioning,” but in reality it’s heavy position sizing plus leverage. Stop-loss is never planned in advance—your only thought is to make big money. When the market moves slightly against you, your mindset collapses immediately.
Before placing the order, you’re full of confidence. If the direction is wrong, you comfort yourself and stubbornly hold on to it. Losses shrink at first, then they gradually get amplified, until you’re finally completely trapped in a forced, passive hold.
Losing money itself isn’t scary. What’s scary is never being able to find the root cause of the losses. Heavy-position trading is very likely to be driven by emotions in the order book, and all your judgment relies on subjective feelings—so it’s not really rational trading at all.
