The cold pizza box sat open next to my keyboard. It was 3 AM, August 2024, and the screen glowed with my ADA perpetual futures chart. Down another $800 that day. My stomach was a knot. I remember staring at a small bounce, thinking, 'This is it. I can get back *some* of it.' My finger hovered over the 75x leverage button, heart pounding. Rent was due in a week, and I was deep in the red. I clicked 'Buy.' Saw the green for a hopeful minute, then the cascade. The familiar *ding* of liquidation notification, just like the SOL and DOGE trades before it. That month was just a blur of desperation, chasing every red candle deeper into the hole.

Ever had a month where every trade just amplified the pain in your real life?
