I opened a Binance Futures trade, cranked the leverage up a bit too high. Thought, “Just a small move and my profit will double.”

The market went the other way.

At first, it was a small loss, I decided to wait.

Then it got bigger… and I hadn’t set a stop-loss.

I watched my balance melt in real time.

That’s when it hit me

In trading, control matters more than speed.

Leverage is tempting, but misuse it and it can wipe out your account in minutes.

From now on, my rules are simple:

📌 Only use leverage I can control.

📌 Always set a stop-loss.

📌 Keep emotions off the chart.

The market will give you another chance… but only if you still have capital to take it.
