$876 million in long positions were liquidated within 24 hours. This wasn’t market volatility—it was a collective collapse of leverage.
The market keeps replaying the same story: excessive leverage drives prices up, the bubble bursts at the slightest touch, countless people chase the rally and buy at the top, and in the end they’re systematically liquidated. This isn’t a matter of luck; it’s a structural risk.
After losing money, many people say, “I’m done next time.” But as soon as the market picks up, they jump back in and add leverage. Emotions and greed move faster than risk management—that’s the most dangerous vulnerability.
Derivatives aren’t a tool for making money; they’re an amplifier. Anyone who uses them needs to understand first what it means to “be able to afford to lose.”
