After playing a few rounds of event contracts, I would call it - a money-burning mini-game.
Let me give you a very simple example and you'll understand.
Today I played 4 rounds betting 5u for 10 minutes on event contracts. With a 50% win rate, I ended up losing 2u.
It's next to Mare, and the choice is indeed more important than effort. If you play contracts with a 50% win rate, you'll only lose the transaction fees at most; how much higher can the transaction fees be compared to the 20% of event contracts?
Moreover, contracts can stop losses, can hedge, and have a large operational space. If you manage risks well, you won’t blow up and lose all your capital. But tmd event contracts are just that; if you make the wrong judgment, you lose all the capital you invested and you blow up.
Some may say that event contracts can be played during consolidation. I tell you, during consolidation it's even easier to lose. If you can confirm whether the price will be higher than the current price in 10 minutes, then it's not trading; that's called predicting.
Isn’t opening a neutral grid during consolidation better? Why play a gambling mini-game that wastes time and money?
I'll teach you how to throw event contracts into the trash can: Contract - upper right corner - manage various functions - click to kill the eyes of event contracts.
