#新闻交易 📈📉🚨
It was another early morning rally for Bitcoin and the entire crypto market when I suddenly saw breaking news: "MicroStrategy announces the purchase of $1.5 billion in Bitcoin, BTC breaks the $100,000 barrier." My heart raced—this was the news every trader dreams of. Without hesitation, I rushed into the market. At the time, BTC was around $102,450. I firmly believed the trend was just beginning, so I heavily invested, using 50x leverage, with no stop-loss. #NewsTrading
I was full of confidence. Institutions were entering, the trend was strong. BTC surged all the way to $103,894, even rising to $104,500. The paper profit was considerable. But I was too greedy, setting my target at $106K. Minutes later, suddenly a $5,000 waterfall line swallowed my profits in an instant. The whales took profits, and I was directly liquidated by a liquidation spike, with the price exactly at $102,046. It was brutal.
Ironically, as I write down this experience, BTC has risen back to around $101,815. The news was correct, the trend was right, but my actions—overconfidence and lack of a stop-loss—became my fatal flaw.
This experience taught me: news trading is a game of speed and discipline. Reactions must be quick, but risk management is more important. The FOMO mentality can destroy even the most informed traders.
Learn from this lesson. Next time, I will remember—surfing requires a life jacket.
