$BEAT The Temptation of Contracts: Knowing the Risks, Yet Unable to Resist
Many people criticize contracts as a meat grinder, yet can't help but rush in.
Is it that they don't understand the risks? No, the real issue is—the temptation is just too direct.
Think about it, an ordinary job, working hard for a month just to earn ten thousand.
However, in the contract market, with the same ten thousand principal, a slight market movement can equal a month's salary in your reality.
The volatility in the crypto world is already exaggerated, in extreme conditions, a few seconds can mean several points back and forth,
and for some smaller coins, a single surge can make you question your life.
Even the “steady players” like BTC, when emotions hit, can give you a significant pullback in minutes.
What makes contracts most intoxicating is not the direction, but the thrill of “money stacking by multiples.”
One successful trade is luck, if you keep flipping successfully, you might feel like you’ve found a shortcut.
With the same market fluctuations, spot trading might just make a slight move in your account,
while contracts can elevate your earnings to another level, this gap hits hard.
That’s why so many people, knowing the dangers, still can’t help but dive in.
Some treat it as a tool, slowly grinding with a small position;
while many others see it as a lifeline, hoping for a single trade to turn their lives around.
To be honest, contracts themselves are not evil; the real danger lies in betting your life on them.
If you can control your position, set stop-loss and take-profit in advance,
treat it as an amplifier, rather than the only choice for a turnaround,
it’s just a sharp tool, giving you greater opportunities.
But once you make “just one more time” your belief,
no matter how many chances the market gives you, in the end, it will take back your capital plus interest.
Why do people keep playing contracts?
Because they are really too close to “quick money.”
With one careless move, it can take you flying; but with another careless move, you can crash to pieces.
