Copper prices have been extremely volatile recently, with sharp fluctuations. Looking back now, if I had used spot holdings or copper-related ETFs/stocks for allocation, the returns and stability would have been much better. But at the time, I was impulsive and insisted on opening a margin contract to gamble—resulting in immense psychological pressure, inability to hold positions, frequent stop-loss exits, and ultimately missing out on the market. This is the dual nature of leveraged trading: while leverage can indeed amplify gains, it also demands much higher psychological resilience and risk tolerance. Often, it's not that the strategy is wrong, but that the wrong tools were chosen.
