What is liquidity risk? Why might a profitable position still be impossible to exit at the expected price?

In cryptocurrency trading, many people focus on price movements but overlook another question: When you actually want to sell, is there enough buying interest in the market to absorb your order? If the bid-ask spread widens and order book depth is insufficient, the actual execution may fall short of expectations even if your account shows a profit.

First, what is liquidity risk?

Liquidity risk is the risk that an asset cannot be bought or sold smoothly within the required timeframe at

Featured“Bitcoin’s Risk Has Not Been Eliminated; Watch Short-Term Liquidity. Is Storage Forming a Short-Term Bottom?”

Bitcoin recovered after yesterday’s decline, but has not moved out of the hourly converging range. In the short term today, watch the hourly equal highs at 75500 and whether liquidity at the top of the weekend consolidation range gets swept. If price moves up, watch for a pullback around 77200-77500. If ETH is not particularly strong, first watch whether 2190 pulls back.

On Bitcoin’s daily chart, yesterday’s price action did not change much. If it closes another bearish candle today,

What Are Market Makers? How Do They Affect Liquidity in the Cryptocurrency Market?

In cryptocurrency trading, when you click buy or sell, your order needs to be matched with other orders in the market. Market makers are among the key participants that provide market liquidity. They typically help market participants trade more easily by continuously offering buy and sell quotes.

First, what are market makers?

Market makers typically offer buy and sell quotes simultaneously within a certain price range, hoping to cover costs and risks through the bid-ask spread and other trading profits. But

What Is the Bid-Ask Spread? Why Can a Wider Spread Mean Higher Hidden Costs for Frequent Traders?

In crypto trading, many people focus only on fees and overlook the gap between the buying and selling prices. Even if an exchange advertises very low fees, a large bid-ask spread can add extra costs when traders open and close positions.

First, what is the bid-ask spread?

The bid-ask spread is the difference between the current best ask price and the best bid price. For example, if a coin’s best bid is 99.9 USDT and its best ask is 100.1 USDT, the spread is 0.2 USDT. Relative to the midpoint pr

What is the funding rate? Why do the long and short sides of perpetual contracts need to pay fees periodically?

In cryptocurrency trading, perpetual contracts have no fixed expiration date, so a mechanism is needed to keep contract prices as close as possible to the spot prices of the underlying assets. This mechanism is the funding rate.

First, what is the funding rate?

The funding rate is a fee periodically exchanged between long and short position holders in the perpetual contract market according to the platform’s rules. It is usually related to the contract price relative to the spot p

The annualized rate on the coin next door is 3000—absolutely outrageous. What does a -1.5% funding rate on Unitree Technology mean? If you opened a 100u short position with 10x leverage, you’ll be charged shortly at 12: -1.5%*100*10=-15u.

If you have a position, go check how much funding you’ve earned—or how much has been deducted?

ETH | Shorted near 2150 in advance, took profit at 2085, then reversed positions at night to capture the rebound!

Yesterday morning, ETH rebounded to around 2150 but never broke through convincingly. With the overall market looking weak, I chose to open a short in the resistance zone.

Why take profit at 2085?

Because 2085 was already close to the previous low support at 2050, and taking profits early mattered more than greedily chasing the final leg down.

At night, US-Iran news triggered a rebound. ETH retested 2120 without breaking below it. Combined with the US stock market's premarket p

AI companies making more money while burning more cash? Anthropic's IPO reveals the most awkward secret in the artificial intelligence industry

The artificial intelligence industry has an interesting phenomenon: the faster a business grows, the more capital companies sometimes need.
Anthropic's IPO has put this question squarely before investors.
Growth in Claude users, demand from enterprise customers, and the development of AI coding tools have all created business opportunities for the company. But to maintain their models' competitiveness, companies also need to keep investing in chips, s

The stock ticker ANT looks like just three letters, but it could unsettle the entire AI investment world.
News that Anthropic plans to list on Nasdaq has once again drawn market attention to the capital value of the AI industry. As the developer of Claude, it not only has a well-known AI product but also sits at the heart of global competition in artificial intelligence.

What Is the Difference Between Market Orders and Limit Orders? Why Do Execution Speed and Price Involve a Trade-Off?

In cryptocurrency trading, choosing the right order type directly affects the execution price, speed, and trading costs. Many beginners focus only on whether to buy or sell, overlooking how their orders enter the market.

First, what is a market order?

The main goal of a market order is to match with available orders on the opposite side of the market as quickly as possible. It typically prioritizes execution speed, but does not guarantee the final execution price. If the orde
