At three o'clock in the morning, the computer screen in a New York apartment reflects in Li Jie’s bloodshot eyes. This is the 17th time he is checking the candlestick chart on Coinbase Pro, with the mouse hovering over the ETH/USD perpetual contract interface. The current price of 1540.3 is trembling in the middle band of the Bollinger Bands, and the MACD is about to golden cross.

"Let's take a gamble." He inputs 125x leverage and opens a long position at 1540.5. The moment the position is established, the price suddenly plummets to 1532. Cold sweat soaks through his pajamas, and the stop-loss line trembles at 1528. When the 37th five-minute candlestick breaks through 1548, he decisively closes the position, with profits just covering his daughter’s piano lesson fees for the next semester.
