Brothers, recently my ETH contract grid neutral strategy has been a disaster! Opened the position on March 3rd, and just a little over a day later, I've directly lost 2578.80 USDT, with a loss rate of 42.98%. The annualized return has plummeted to -12022.51%! Who can withstand this?
Those of us who play the grid know that the contract grid neutral strategy was originally meant to find a balance in a volatile market, allowing for some profit regardless of the ups and downs. It's like trying to find a stable little boat in a choppy sea. But why did we capsize this time?
First, let's talk about the reasons for the loss. The market volatility is utterly unpredictable! The price of ETH is like a roller coaster, suddenly breaking through the set range of the grid. I originally thought that the set grid spacing could steadily profit from the price differences, but who knew the market was so extreme that it swallowed all the profits and even incurred losses. Moreover, while 10x leverage seems exciting, once the direction is wrong, the losses are magnified, completely exposing the risk. Additionally, I misjudged the market trend, thinking it would oscillate upwards, but it plummeted instead. The grid strategy simply cannot withstand a one-sided downtrend.
