#Strategy加仓比特币 Another night of liquidation. Now I don't know what to do.

Watching the account shrink, especially with recent leverage trades, I feel like all my decisions were wrong. Many people say that at this time, one should think contrarily and increase holdings of $BTC at low points, but I really don't have the energy to keep entering the market.

Has anyone experienced a similar situation? Should I grit my teeth and continue building positions, or should I stay calm and observe for a while? I want to hear everyone's opinions.

Leverage is basically playing against your own money... I don't even dare to touch it now, it's too painful.

Honestly, when it comes to liquidation... leverage is really a trap, especially when the market is not doing well.

Still want to add to your position after a liquidation? Brother, you need to adjust your mindset, or you'll suffer a huge loss again.

Liquidation boils down to a problem with mechanism design; leverage itself is an incentive incompatibility. It's okay to observe calmly, but don't use "waiting" as an excuse to avoid making decisions. Every bear market in history has someone thinking this way, and the result? Missing the rebound. The issue isn't whether BTC is low or not; you first need to understand your own risk tolerance. If you haven't figured this out, entering the market again is just repeating the same mistake.

Liquidation is really like that, leverage turns your account to nothing in a flash, I understand that feeling... --- Bro, at this point, don't force it. Staying calm is the most important. Last time, I was eager to recover losses and ended up losing even more. --- Adding positions at low levels sounds good, but you must first ensure your mindset is stable, or you'll fall into the same trap again. --- Instead of worrying about whether to enter or not, it's better to turn off leverage first, store some spot assets to calm down, really. --- Honestly, listening to reverse thinking so much that your ears are calloused, surviving is the real winner. Don't be swayed by public opinion. --- Just take this as paying tuition. Replanning your strategy is more important than anything else. Don't rush. --- It's okay to observe for a while, but don't watch so long that you miss the next wave. The key is to have a plan to take action. --- I've been there too. Most of the times I rushed in, I regretted it. Stopping for a bit actually makes you clearer.

Damn, another liquidation? Bro, this leverage is just a trap, I’ve never seen anyone make money from it... Really, just observe calmly and don’t be brainwashed by those "contrarian thinking" arguments, they’re often just a way to cut the leeks.

I knew at the moment of liquidation that leverage is just a trap. I'm truly exhausted; don't listen to those motivational speeches about contrarian thinking. Just take a break first. Really, pushing through when you have no money or mood will only make things worse. No one can predict this wave of market行情, observing is not a bad idea. I feel you, buddy. The feeling of your account shrinking... it's tough.

The moment of liquidation was truly despairing; leverage is just a trap, brother. --- No more adding to positions; staying alive is more important than anything. I'll wait until my mindset stabilizes before acting. --- I've been through it too. At that time, I just wiped out the leverage, and I felt like I had come back to life. --- Contrarian thinking sounds great, but when the account hits rock bottom, who still has the courage? --- Forcing additional positions is not as good as staying calm and watching for two weeks, really. --- That's why I only trade spot; leverage will eventually kill you.
