There’s a person like this…


At his peak, he once made $2 billion by trading futures.
He originally thought he was done for good and went to Dali to retire and enjoy life, but during the bull market of 2015, he couldn’t bear to stay out of it and returned to the market.
After getting trapped at a high position, he went against the principles he’d held for more than ten years—he went long against the trend. He added to his position while the unrealized loss kept growing, and in the end he got liquidated (went bust).
All of his assets worth dozens of billions went to zero in an instant. In the end, he jumped to his death and died by suicide at just 36 years old.
This person wrote a book called *Futures Trading: The Story of a Master Trader*.
What’s ironic is that his idol was Jesse Livermore.
Even the big shots still manage to crash—let alone people like us, small fry?
Running fast for a while isn’t real skill. Being able to run all the way to the end—that’s the real skill.
