Why can your account's overall risk be far higher than expected even when you've only made a few trades?

Many traders review their positions one by one, but overlook a more important question: Do these trades share a common source of risk?

Suppose you hold long positions in BTC, ETH, and SOL at the same time. On the surface, you hold three different assets; but if they're all affected by a broad market decline, a contraction in liquidity, or a drop in risk appetite, all three trades could lose money together.

These are three often-overlooked issues in portfolio risk.

I added some more PEPE
Bitcoin's resilience is already clear
I firmly believe there will be a year-end rally
So I'm ignoring all the volatility for now

Is BTC really in danger this time?

Damn

Guys

BTC is really hurting this time

This result is really adding insult to injury

U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen net outflows for three consecutive trading days

Another approximately $201 million flowed out on the latest trading day

What’s even more noteworthy is

Cumulative net outflows over the three days have already exceeded $1 billion

BlackRock is still the biggest standout here, that bastard

Is the Crypto Market Really Short on Money? Who Is Deciding the Next Bull Market?

The crypto market has continued to fall recently, and many investors have begun to believe that there is no longer any new capital entering the market. But I think a more accurate way to put it is that the market is going through a period of liquidity contraction, investors staying on the sidelines, and asset repricing.

To assess the next bull market, we need to focus on three sources of capital.

First, global liquidity. The Fed’s interest rate policy, the US dollar index, and the monetary conditions in major

What Are Stablecoins? Are They Really Stable?

In the cryptocurrency market, stablecoins are often used for trading, transfers, and asset settlement.

Unlike crypto assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, whose prices fluctuate significantly, stablecoins are usually pegged to fiat currencies such as the US dollar, with the aim of keeping their prices relatively stable.

But there is an easily overlooked point: relative price stability does not mean an asset is completely safe.

Does Bitcoin have real value? Is it digital gold or a speculative asset?
Since its creation, Bitcoin has been surrounded by controversy. Some consider it digital gold, others believe it has no real value, while still others think it will become an important part of the financial system of the future.
I believe Bitcoin’s value comes primarily from three factors.
First, scarcity. Bitcoin’s total supply is capped at 21 million coins, and this fixed supply mechanism distinguishes it from traditional fiat currencies. Against the backdrop of constant changes in the global monetary system, scarcity h

In BTC trading, many people see several large bullish candlesticks in a row and assume the uptrend is fully established. Worried about missing out, they rush to buy. But consecutive gains do not mean every price is a good entry point. Sometimes, the faster the rally, the more alert you need to be to the risk of a short-term pullback.

Why isn’t it always a good idea to chase a rally after several large bullish candlesticks?

First, the price may have moved too far from a reasonable level. After consecutive gains, the short-term price may be far above the moving average. The market needs time t

BTC has been moving sideways for three days, with the price fluctuating within a range. Many traders are starting to feel anxious: should they go long or short?

In fact, the easiest mistake to make in a sideways market is predicting the direction of a breakout in advance.

There are three signals to watch when assessing a breakout.

First, trading volume. If volume continues to rise as the price approaches the top of the range, it indicates that market participation is increasing. But rising volume alone does not necessarily mean the price will go up; you also need to see whether the price ca

Is Bitcoin’s 21 million cap really reliable? Can the network remain secure when block rewards reach zero?

One of Bitcoin’s most important design features is its total supply cap of 21 million coins. But many investors overlook one issue: over time, block rewards will continue to halve and are expected to gradually approach zero around 2140. Will miners still have an incentive to maintain the Bitcoin network then?

I believe this issue needs to be understood from three perspectives.

First, the 21 million cap has strong institutional stability. Bitcoin’s issuance rules are maintained by its op

In cryptocurrency trading, there’s a very common phenomenon: many people are always quick to close their positions when they’re in profit, but once they’re at a loss, they’re reluctant to cut their losses.

Why does this happen?

First, when people are in profit, they’re afraid of losing the gains they’ve already made. Even a slight price pullback makes them worry the trend is reversing, so they sell early. As a result, trades that could have brought in much larger gains end up making only a little.

Second, when they’re at a loss, people are often reluctant to admit that their judgment may ha

In the era of large models, everyone is competing over chip performance and compute power. But what actually drags training and inference into the mud is often the underlying “environment puzzle”!

Microsoft and Tsinghua University recently published an interesting empirical study that turns its attention to infrastructure at the very bottom of the large-model stack: GPU kernel libraries. The researchers dug through 300 closed GitHub issues across seven mainstream GPU kernel libraries and analyzed, one by one, the causes of the errors that leave engineers pulling their hair out.
