When I first entered the crypto space, I was also afraid of high leverage.

Hearing words like 50x, 100x, my first reaction was—game over.

But after being taught a few lessons in the market, I finally understood a brutal fact:

It's not the leverage multiplier itself that kills accounts, but the size of the principal you put in.

Too many people fall into the same trap:

On one hand, afraid of high leverage,

On the other hand, risking their entire net worth with low leverage,

Resulting in losses so fast that they have no friends.

Let me break down a very realistic number for you.

Suppose you have 50,000 USDT.

Using 100x leverage, only 1% of the principal is used, which is 500 USDT to participate in trading.

Even if the market turns around and drops by 1%,

You only lose 5 USDT.

This kind of fluctuation,

is no different from a normal pullback in holding spot.

Conversely,

If you use 5x leverage,

but put the entire 50,000 USDT in?

Once the market drops 20%,

Your account is wiped out instantly,

Leaving no room for a counter-move.

Actually, the market logic is very simple:

It doesn't care how many times you open leverage,

It only cares about how much real money you are betting.

Why do veteran traders dare to play with high leverage?

Not because they are fearless,

But because their positions are so small that it's pitiful.

Why are newcomers prone to crashing?

Not because the leverage is high,

But because they go in too aggressively.

People who truly understand trading,

Their first thought is never "How much can I make,"

But calmly asking themselves:

What's the worst-case scenario? How much can I lose at most?

This is also the first step I take when opening a position—

Stop-loss must be confirmed first.
