#以太坊行情技术解读 Is the "get rich overnight" dream in contract trading really possible?

Let's do some math. Suppose you have 10,000 yuan.

Using 100x leverage in a leveraged contract:
- If the market rises 1%, you earn 10,000
- If the market rises 10%, you earn 100,000
- In just a few minutes, you can earn a year's salary

Sounds like a fairy tale? But this is the most tempting bait in the contract market.

What is the other side of reality?

Again, with 100x leverage:
- If the market drops 1%, your principal is wiped out instantly
- Under extreme market conditions, a 2% fluctuation can happen in just one second
- You can't react in time, and you're liquidated

Therefore, crypto contract traders are basically divided into two categories:

**First category: Professional traders (less than 5%)**
- Large capital operations
- Very low leverage, very small positions
- Strict risk control that’s almost unbelievable
- The goal is steady compound interest, not overnight riches

**Second category: Gamblers (more than 95%)**
- Small capital, high leverage
- Want to change their lives with a single trade
- The typical ending: loss → add more positions → liquidation → leave silently

What do you think they are competing over?

Cognition, skills, market judgment...

But what is the truth?

When the market rebounds 0.5%, your stop-loss order has already been triggered. In a black swan event, all the money you earned before, including principal and interest, is returned to the market. This kind of thing happens every day in the crypto world.

The crypto space is never short of legends of "getting rich overnight."

But more often, it’s about those who never appeared again after a night of liquidation.

If you are not in the top 5%, remember this: **Before leverage amplifies gains, it first amplifies greed and fear.**

Survive first, then talk about getting rich overnight.
