Back in the day, guys would charge into battle and risk everything.



These days? They just open a 100x long at resistance and watch their account evaporate.

Same energy, different battlefield. Except one had honor, the other just has liquidation notifications.

Haha, this analogy is great, but to be honest, a 100x long position at a resistance level... this is just pure money giving to the exchange.

According to studies, this analogy is still worth in-depth discussion from the perspective of behavioral finance. From a technical standpoint, 100x leverage essentially amplifies the risk function non-linearly. Data shows that over 95% of retail investors will get liquidated at this level, and this is not a matter of courage but a matter of probability. Based on the following points: First, ancient warriors at least had the option to surrender, whereas 100x long positions have no buffer; second, liquidation is a cold judgment executed by machines and there is no such thing as honor. It is worth noting that this benchmark analogy actually conceals the essence — one is an inevitable historical outcome, and the other is self-destruction. In summary, rather than saying "changing the battlefield," it is more like packaging gambling as trading.

Haha, this analogy is hilarious... Today's Warriors are basically margin call warriors.

Haha, huge loss, that analogy is perfect. Today's warriors all die on leverage.

Laughing to death, this is the epic of our generation, but the battlefield has shifted from deserts to candlestick charts.

Haha, that's a brilliant analogy. Right now, it's a game of heartbeat, and one quick move and it's gone.

From the supply and demand curve perspective, isn't this just a modern version of the "Homeric Epics"? It's just that the heroes have been replaced by retail investors being liquidated.

Haha, this is just the tragic song of modern warriors... Honor is gone, leaving only margin call messages.
