**Reflecting on My Recent LINK Trade**

I recently executed a futures trade on LINKUSDT, which didn’t go as planned. The order was a Stop Market Buy, triggered when the mark price reached 16.430. The trade filled at an average price of 16.420, costing me a small loss of approximately 0.33 cents, including fees. While the loss is minimal, it serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of futures trading, especially in volatile markets like LINK.

The trade details show a filled quantity of 37.766 LINK, with a taker fee of 0.018883 USDT. Despite the setback, I’m taking this as a learning experience. Futures trading requires precision, and even small miscalculations can lead to unexpected outcomes. Moving forward, I’ll focus on refining my strategy and risk management to avoid similar pitfalls. LINK remains an interesting asset, and I’ll continue to monitor its movements closely.
