Once “fast money” has you under its control in trading crypto, going back to normal life is difficult.
I know a friend who started with only 2,500U to test crypto derivatives. With good luck, in two days he turned it into 30,000U. In an instant, the whole person changed. He no longer cared about the wage from his day job. Working steadily on real business felt too slow. In his eyes, only the moving K-line mattered—he believed that this was the only way out of life.
But when the market turned, his operations went completely out of order—if he made money, he complained the position was too light; if he lost money, he couldn’t bring himself to exit. After a small drawdown, he would average down. All he could think about was catching the next wave to land the plane directly.
In the end, his 30,000U shrank to just a few hundred U. Losing money was bad enough, but the most terrifying part was that the “trading addiction” clung to him: eating while watching the charts, checking market moves before bed, and waking up in the middle of the night to instinctively grab his phone to see what’s going up or down. He tells others, “Never play derivatives,” but he can’t control himself—trade after trade.
The cruelest thing about high leverage is that it lets you taste the sweetness of explosive profits first. That kind of thrill of doubling in a day will completely grind down your patience, and then you can no longer calmly make slow money and earn reliably.
But the market just happens to favor people like this. The more desperate you are to break even, the more you dare to go all-in; the more afraid you are of missing out, the more you chase the top; the less willing you are to admit defeat, the harder you hold on to the very end. In the end, what destroys you is never the market itself—it’s the gambling mindset “fast money” teaches you.
If you want to last longer in the crypto world, don’t rush to guess the market’s direction. First, ask yourself a few things: When you can’t read the market clearly, can you quietly go flat? When your loss hits the stop-loss line, can you leave decisively? When you’re in profit and it’s in your hands, can you take it in batches? When your mindset goes wrong, can you shut down your computer immediately?
If you already feel yourself getting worked up and losing control, step on the brakes early. Don’t wait until both your account and your life collapse before looking back and saying you regret it.
