Trading derivatives on an exchange is essentially walking a tightrope between profit and risk. On one side, leverage amplifies attractive returns; on the other, market volatility can lead to instant liquidation.
A good trading platform builds multiple layers of protection for participants: flexible leverage settings allow you to choose according to your risk tolerance; sufficient risk reserves act as buffers during extreme market conditions; clear liquidation rules inform you of your risk boundaries in advance. The existence of these mechanisms ensures that even during intense market fluctuations, the trading system can maintain stable operation without exacerbating losses due to technical failures.
Ultimately, whether derivatives trading can be sustained long-term depends on the platform's stability and your respect for risk. The former requires technical support, while the latter relies on each trader's rational judgment.

Multi-layer protection? Sounds good, but according to the on-chain data I’ve seen, the reserve flows of certain exchanges simply don’t match their accounts. Leverage configurations may be flexible, but a quick look at the distribution of chips reveals who’s really squeezing retail investors. Is this what you call protection?

Dancing on the wire, one wrong step and you'll get liquidated... It sounds very impressive, but in extreme market conditions, it's really about luck.

Dancing on the wire, one careless move and you'll be liquidated and harvested. The platform is truly stable, but do any traders really respect the risk?

Basically, you need to have a sense of reverence; otherwise, no matter how good the protection is, it won't save you.

Dancing on the wire, one careless move and you're directly liquidated. No matter how eloquently you put it, it doesn't change this fact.

lmao "multi-layer safeguards" - i've literally seen every single one of these fail spectacularly. the real exploit vector? human greed paired with platform negligence. warning you now.
