I want to share my real experience with crypto trading. This is not advice from an expert — this is a story from someone who learned the hard way.
When I first tried futures trading, I made a small profit. That profit made me feel good. I felt confident. I thought I understood the market.
Then I used high leverage with low capital… and within 2 minutes, I lost $50.
My position was fully liquidated.
At that moment, I didn’t fully understand what I did wrong — I only felt the pain of losing money fast.
I had no capital left, so I stopped trading and waited a few months. Later, I made the worst decision of my journey:
I took a credit loan and invested again, thinking I could recover my losses.
But the market started dumping hard.
In spot trading, my coins went down nearly 70%.
If I sold, I would lose most of my capital.
If I held, I wouldn’t be able to repay the loan.
The loan due date was coming, so I sold at a huge loss and paid the loan by adding extra money.
That’s how I lost 70% of my capital + interest on the loan.
After that, I returned to futures trading. I had learned some basics. I made a few good trades. But one bad trade — just one — again wiped out everything.
That’s when I understood some painful truths: Never chase candles.
Never catch a falling knife 🔪.
Never chase a rising rocket 🚀.
I also realized I was trading blindly. I wasn’t watching news, volume, or market sentiment. I trusted charts and emotions more than logic.
Today, I don’t see this as a loss.
I see it as my learning fee in crypto.
What I learned — so you don’t repeat my mistakes
Crypto is open 24/7. Missing one trade means nothing.
If you miss an entry, don’t fool yourself into chasing it. Another opportunity will come.
Taking loans to trade or invest is a big mistake.
Using high leverage with small capital is dangerous.
Copy trading whales or high-leverage traders is not made for beginners.
Never use full capital in futures.
Take small profits and be satisfied.
Trade only a few times a day.
Never trade emotionally or in a hurry.
If you trade futures, always think about risk first, profit later.
Indicators can fail, especially when news hits the market.
So always check: • Volume
• News
• Market conditions
Indicators are only tools — not guarantees.
This journey changed how I think about crypto.
I’m still learning. I’m still building.
And yes — from this experience, I’ve also created my own token called $VGF.
This project is inspired by everything I learned the hard way.
If you want to know more, comment $VGF.
I’ll share the full details very soon.
Sharing this so others can learn without losing what I lost.
Stay safe. Stay patient. Trade smart.
