After participating in the smart trading competition on the 7th, I have been continuously stopped out violently. The performance after authorization was truly incredible—during the two days of making money, I watched my account keep retracing, feeling like someone was watching my positions and chopping them down. Tonight, with this wave of market movement, it directly and precisely hit my stop-loss. My stop-loss point wasn't even a key support level. After this series of events, I started to doubt whether my trading logic was flawed or if the market's rules of the game are just like this. Have any brothers encountered this situation? I want to hear everyone's thoughts.

Bro, this is getting ridiculous. As soon as you authorize, you're getting cut. It feels like smart trading is just a scam. I've also experienced my stop-loss being precisely hit. Honestly, it's hard not to think there's a conspiracy. Try a different approach, don't fight it head-on. There's no problem with the logic; this is just how the market works. Get used to it. Your stop-loss point might indeed be too obvious. Try hiding it a bit deeper next time. That's why I never authorize anything. I'd rather do it manually than get exploited. The market's rules? Bro, it's the rules themselves that are messing with us. A precise hit-through means they've already figured out your strategy.

nah this is literally textbook liquidity hunting szn... the fact that your sl got pinged *exactly* at river's dump tells me everything lmao. classic mev sandwich vibes but make it retail. question tho—was your position size telegraphing your stops to the mempool or just pure coincidence? either way, thesis still intact imo

Me too, I haven't made any profit after authorization. --- That's why I never touch smart trading, it's too mysterious. --- Precise stop-loss is really outrageous, it feels like being hunted. --- You can't even write a paper with such precise coincidences. --- Wait, can't they really see your stop-loss points? --- The two days of making money, pulling back while earning, this logic itself is flawed. --- Authorization is like sticking your neck out, don't think about it. --- I've encountered it before, and I never authorized an account again.

You made me sick, smart trading is just a trap, don't touch it This is just too ugly, brother. Your stop-loss was precisely hit? Honestly, someone knows your cards After authorization, it started to fail, really has a shady vibe A few days ago, I was making money, and then suddenly they hit you with a brutal counterattack. Whoever encounters it is unlucky I think the problem isn't your logic, it's that this game is inherently rotten That move by river was too coincidental, it feels like they look down on your position The competition organizers can definitely see your orders, in plain terms, you've been played Such precise stop-loss? I also suspect someone is hunting retail traders Same illness, brother, a few friends have also experienced this With this combo, I feel bad for you, it’s definitely someone watching over you

ngl this reads like classic liquidation hunting mechanics, empirically speaking the data on smart contract interactions during volatile periods already proved this back in 2023... but here's the thing—your stop loss placement is the real issue not the conspiracy 🤓
