Leverage: The Fast Lane to Loss
Exchanges don't make money when you win—they profit when you bleed. And nothing accelerates that bleed faster than 50x or 100x leverage. These sky-high multipliers aren’t tools of empowerment—they’re precision instruments designed to magnify your downfall. The more you believe you're in control, the more they pull the strings.
Behind every liquidation, there’s a platform that sold you the illusion of mastery. In reality, exchanges monitor aggregate positions and liquidity clusters like predators tracking wounded prey. They know where your stop-loss sits. They see when the herd overcommits. And they use volatility not as risk, but as a weapon—triggering cascading liquidations that fill their pockets while draining yours.
The real market isn’t the chart you see. It’s a battlefield engineered by algorithms that react faster than human thought, front-run your entries, and exploit your delays. In a zero-sum game tilted by code and incentives, retail traders aren’t just outgunned—they’re out-designed.
You’re not trading markets. You’re trading against a machine that wrote the rules to ensure you lose.
