The recent Ethereum trend has indeed been fierce, with market volatility capable of instantly shaking out both longs and shorts. I have a trading friend who often sends me screenshots of his profit orders, and most of the time he's making money. But today, he suddenly sent me a screenshot of a loss, and I was a bit stunned—such a small fluctuation actually wiped out a whole month's profit? This made me realize how strict risk management needs to be when trading cryptocurrencies like Ethereum with large price swings. However, from a technical perspective, there should be another round of gains next month. The key is still to control position size and maintain a good mindset.

A month's profit is gone in an instant. This is the crypto world—no matter how much you can earn, you can't withstand a fierce correction.

Based on on-chain volatility data, this drop in Ethereum actually exposes the risk perception flaw under token weighted voting — essentially, your friend's issue is about incentive incompatibility. Greedy when making profits, but no stop-loss mechanism during losses. This is a systemic vulnerability at the governance level.

My friend is the same way—he always brags about how much he makes, but disappears whenever he loses, haha.

Haha, a month's profit is gone in a wave—that's the magic of leverage.

Wait a minute, I need to dig into your friend's loss data—he's already wiped out all his profits in just one month? The trading pattern behind this seems a bit suspicious. According to on-chain data, this type of high-frequency volatility arbitrage often hides risk signals.

Haha, your friend is really having a tough time this time. ETH's volatility this time is truly inhumane.
