Once wiped out, chasing highs with 5x leverage and getting caught, I lost 30,000 directly... Now I only dare to play with 1x, I've truly learned my lesson.

Been liquidated before, losing a half-year's salary in one go. That day, I truly felt worse than death. Later, I realized that leverage is just a slaughterhouse. Now I only dare to trade spot, honestly hoarding coins.

That time I got liquidated on leverage, losing half of my principal. Now I don't dare to use more than 10x leverage.

Been liquidated, lost $5,000 in one go... I was truly desperate back then. Only later did I realize that leverage isn't a gambling tool; you need to set stop-losses.

At the moment of liquidation, I felt like I was falling apart. Really, with five times leverage going all-in, it was gone in one night. It wasn't until later that I understood the importance of stop-loss. Now I only do small-scale trial and error, and I never adopt that gambler's mentality again.

Well... I got liquidated once. I followed the trend and used 5x leverage, but during the flash crash, I couldn't react in time, and my account was wiped out. Now I understand what risk management really means—it's all tears to talk about.

Been liquidated before, and it was really miserable. Leverage is just a harvesting tool; one moment of distraction, and it's gone.

Once I got liquidated, with 5x leverage, I was directly wiped out. That feeling... really, it was like going back to the days of liberation overnight. Now I don't even dare to open leverage trades anymore.

Had a liquidation once, my kidneys hurt, what else can I do to recover... Just take it slow and climb back up.

Leverage liquidation? Ha, then I have to say it, or I'll be holding it in...
