Myth: "It's only $50, so I can't lose much."
That's the lie I told myself right before I blew that $600. You put $50 on a 50x leveraged DOGE trade? Your actual exposure is $2500. A 2% move against you, common as dirt, instantly vaporizes your $50. It's not about the dollar figure. It's about what percentage of your *total* capital that $50 represents. If you have $100 in your account and risk $50, that's a soul-crushing 50% loss. I learned this the hard way.
Truth: Your true risk is a percentage of your entire trading account, not just a dollar amount.
So, is your "small" $50 really small, or is it a massive chunk of your trading power?
