I’ve seen too many myths of doubling in a week, and too many dazzling trading records with a 90% win rate.
But if you stretch the timeline to three years or five—crossing through several rounds of big bulls and big bears—
how many of those high-frequency traders who trade contracts in the crypto market, day after day, fighting between milliseconds and chart spikes, can ultimately turn their profits into real life and truly walk away unscathed?
Is it because they conquered probability with calm and computing power, or do they eventually fall to an unexpected black swan, a single slip in execution (slippage), or that ten-minute loss of control hidden deep within human nature?
When they enter, everyone always thinks they’ll be the exception.
