When you open a high leverage trade, the only thing on your mind is usually:

“How much money will I make from this trade?”
And honestly, that’s a totally fine thought.

But you also need to think about it the other way:

If this trade goes against me, how much money can I lose? Can I actually bear that loss?

People only think about the “how much will I make?” part.
Then, when the trade starts going against them, they start to freak out.

Think about the risk before you enter the trade, not after.
