The illusion of fast money
Many people enter the world of perpetual futures with one goal in mind: making money quickly. We see screenshots of massive profits and assume success is inevitable. I once believed that too.
Last year, I experienced the other side of that reality—watching my numbers turn red and learning how difficult it can be to manage frustration while preserving mental peace and family balance.
“Why does the market move against me?”
For months, I traded cautiously, using low leverage and managing risk. Even so, I accumulated losses of nearly -$344 USD. What frustrated me most was the recurring feeling that every time I opened a long or a short, the market immediately moved against my position.
Over time, I realized this wasn’t bad luck. Markets move based on liquidity. Algorithms and large players target areas where retail traders cluster their entries, stop losses, and liquidations. Price does not chase individuals—it seeks pooled capital.
Chasing large green candles or entering trades emotionally often means providing liquidity for others to exit their positions. That is not coincidence; it is how the system functions.
When trading crosses the line
Throughout 2025 and into 2026, thousands of new participants have entered the crypto market searching for financial relief. This must be said clearly: easy money does not exist.
Futures trading can quickly become addictive. The urge to “recover” losses can turn trading into a cycle that damages both finances and mental health. When emotional control is lost, the true liquidation is not the account—it is peace of mind.
A responsible approach
My strategy today is different. I am no longer chasing extraordinary returns. I focus on understanding market structure and protecting capital. Discipline has become the foundation:
Never trade with essential money
Only use capital that does not affect your household or daily stability.
Wait for confirmation, not emotion
A valid setup requires price to break a key level (such as resistance), retest it without losing structure, and then confirm continuation. If this does not occur, staying out is a position.
Set loss limits and respect them
Accept losses when they occur. Close the platform and step away. The market will always offer new opportunities.
Education before capital
Study how liquidity is hunted and how large players move price before risking real funds.
Final reflection
Individual responsibility is the strongest form of risk management. We are in an environment where liquidity is constantly targeted, and only those who remain disciplined and emotionally controlled can survive long term.
Yes, I lost money.
But what I gained was more valuable: wisdom, patience, and emotional control—assets worth far more than any single winning trade.
In this 2026, where markets relentlessly seek liquidity, ask yourself:
Is futures trading for everyone, or does it require a very strong mindset to avoid the illusion of easy money?

The Dopamine Trap in Trading.
Have you felt desperate upon seeing a capture of +500%?
Do you feel like time is running out and that you should be making that now? You are not alone. It's your brain reacting to a stimulus designed to hook you.
Here is the depth of that anxiety:
- The illusion of the end result: A screenshot is a "frozen moment." It doesn't show the 10 previous losing trades or the stress of watching the account about to be liquidated. Seeing only the end is like watching the finish line of a marathon without seeing the months of pain and injuries of the runner.

$BNB
Have you ever wondered how a coin goes from being worth cents to becoming a global giant? It all started in July 2017. While the world was just beginning to understand what Bitcoin was, BNB, the official coin of Binance, was born. It didn't come out of nowhere; it was born with a White Paper (the original rulebook) that promised something revolutionary, an asset designed to become increasingly scarce. It hit the market with a price of just $0.15 cents. Yes, with what you today buy a candy, you could have bought a BNB.

52% operate with fear. Is manual control an emotional trap?
We closed a survey with 50 votes on my profile and the result is revealing, 52% of investors still feel afraid to use automation tools. In a market that never rests, are we the owners of our cryptos or slaves to the screen?

Many prefer manual mode because they feel they have control. But let's analyze the real cost:
- Price slavery: Manually trading forces you to be glued to the chart, sacrificing time.

Many focus only on day-to-day, but the key lies in the cycles.
2025 was a special year because we were in the final stage of the halving cycle. It wasn't just that prices rose in February; the market maintained a strong trend that even at the end of the year gave us very important impulses.
Look at the difference in levels:
- Bitcoin: Last year it hovered around $97,325, today it seeks support at $70k.
- Ethereum: From $2,788 to $2,126 today.

🔸Let's Talk Honestly about Binance.
The world of cryptocurrencies and therefore, that of giant platforms like Binance, remains an unexplored space for many, a land of promises and also fears. If you're here, it's because you've already taken the first step to face the possibility that your money can work for you. But let me be honest, making money here is not a magic formula or a button that you press. It is a path that is traveled with strategy, with patience, and above all, with a lot of emotional intelligence.

Friends, I want you to stop for a moment and feel the tension in the air. What we are experiencing right now is more than just a pause on the chart; it's the absolute calm before the macroeconomic forces and the largest capital in the world collide. We have Fear controlling sentiment, whales loading their arsenals, and a global economic news event that is less than 24 hours away from exploding. Get ready. The reality is that the Fear and Greed Index marking 24 is not a cold number; it is the representation of the anxiety of ordinary people. The average investor is either paralyzed or selling little by little, which creates the perfect environment for big capital to act. This fear is the gunpowder; the vast majority are vulnerable to a panic sell-off. Just for that reason, whales have been in frantic activity; we have seen constant movements of hundreds of millions of dollars in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT to central exchanges. They are not moving that money to watch the screen; they are positioning themselves. These $100 million entering an exchange are a statement of intentions, signaling that they are ready to execute massive buy orders or, more likely, sell orders as soon as the market gives them an excuse.

$POL
It is a pleasure to continue discussing a project that is defining the infrastructure of the next generation of the internet: Polygon. We are focusing on what truly drives its value, and the key lies in the POL token and its role in future business.

In the midst of the usual market volatility, Polygon remains strong. To understand why it is a solid long-term investment, we must look beyond the chart and focus on what the network has achieved. Polygon was born to solve a critical challenge, the overload of Ethereum. We all know that Ethereum is the most trusted and decentralized base layer, but its scalability limitation and high gas fees make it inaccessible for mass use. That's where Polygon comes in, acting as a smart Layer 2 that offers drastically faster and cheaper transactions without sacrificing Ethereum's security. It is the partner that makes Ethereum viable for global adoption, positioning itself as a pillar in the multi-chain future.
