Got Liquidated on ETH & BANK Futures — Here's What I Learned (and What I'm Still Figuring Out)

Well… it finally happened.

I got liquidated. 🫠

Took high-leverage trades on $ETH and BANK, thought I had my entry right, and before I could blink — boom, margin gone. Account nuked. It stung.

It wasn’t my first time trading futures, but I definitely got a bit too confident. I was chasing the move, overleveraged, and didn’t have a solid stop-loss plan in place. I let emotions win over strategy, and the market taught me a lesson—again.

The thing is, over the long run, I’m still green. My overall PNL is positive. But this loss hit hard, mentally more than financially. It made me take a step back and reflect.

Now I’m genuinely curious... 👉 What do you do after a liquidation?

1. Do you walk away for a while? Analyze the trade in detail? Vent to friends (or memes)?
2. Or do you double down on studying and refining your system?

I’m not here to sugarcoat anything—losses are part of this game. But I think the more we talk about them openly, the more we all learn.
