The market is fluctuating, but my account is silently fading away. The candlesticks on the screen are jumping like a pulse, while my funds curve has fallen from five figures to nearly zero in just three minutes. 50,000 U has vanished into thin air.



That was at 3 a.m. A sudden surge hit my set stop-loss level, and I made a fatal choice—my finger swiped away that rational line of defense on the screen. The thought of "just this once" flashed through my mind, but the market never gave me a chance to regret.

Hesitation under 50x leverage is like releasing the steering wheel at the edge of a cliff. In just a few seconds, my account dropped from five figures to almost zero. I still remember that suffocating feeling very clearly.

**Where did this loss come from**

That night, my trading logic seemed flawless: MMT had been consolidating for a long time, Buidlpad suddenly announced a token withdrawal, and the community was filled with sighs. I judged this as a clear negative signal, immediately opened a short position, and cautiously set a 20% stop-loss. It looked airtight.

But I missed the most critical point—the market had already digested this news long ago.

As the price started approaching the stop-loss line, various thoughts clashed in my mind:
MMT-0.24%

Slipping and removing the stop-loss line at 3 a.m.—that's the one-second difference between a winner and a rookie.

Using 50x leverage with stop-loss removal, this move is truly testing the edge of risking death. Slipping up at 3 a.m. is really reckless.

Slipped and stopped out at 3 a.m., 50x leverage gave me my final lesson. I lost 50,000 just like that—an educational case of life-level loss.

50x leverage manual stop-loss deletion... How desperate must that be? It directly exposes the fundamental issue of the entire on-chain fund flow.
