I later realized that holding spot positions and getting liquidated on futures contracts are not fundamentally about lacking skills; it's about being too greedy with leverage. To put it simply: don't bet all your "hopes of making money" on the possibility of "losing money." My approach is layered: keep the core position as savings and don't touch it, use small positions for trading, and treat leverage as a seasoning—so even if I lose it all, it doesn't affect my sleep. Recently, seeing some regions tighten taxes and compliance measures, sometimes increasing and sometimes relaxing, causing deposit and withdrawal expectations to fluctuate, people are more prone to impulsively add to their positions... I just decided to set a fixed risk limit per trade. Staring at the screen for too long makes my eyes sore, which ironically reminds me: my body is protesting, and if I don't tighten my positions, I truly deserve it. That's all for now.
