Have you ever wondered why so many people know that contracts are risky, yet still jump in? To be honest, it all boils down to four words—the temptation of quick money.
Try comparing. Regular jobs, working hard for a month, and you might only get around ten thousand bucks. But in the contract market? Invest ten thousand yuan as principal, and if the market moves even slightly, within a few minutes, your account balance can multiply several times. This feeling can instantly outshine a whole month of your career efforts.
Moreover, the volatility in the crypto world itself is a fierce player. Small-cap coins can make you question life with a single surge; even Bitcoin, the old-timer, can give you a sharp pullback when emotions run high. Fluctuations of a few percentage points can happen within seconds, something you simply can't see in traditional markets.
And the most addictive part? It’s not just about making the right call, but the thrill of stacking multiples quickly. Making money once is called luck; making it two or three times, and you start to get carried away, feeling like you’ve cracked the code. During market turbulence, spot trading might only cause your account to shake a little, but contracts can give you a direct leap in growth. When you compare these differences, the temptation becomes irresistible.
That’s also why so many people, under the guise of rationality, secretly rush in. Some see it as a tool, trading small positions steadily; but others are thinking about a big turnaround to change their fate.
Honestly, contract trading itself isn’t evil. The real danger lies in how you use it. If you treat it as gambling chips, dreaming of betting your way to dominance, sooner or later the market will settle your account and crush your illusions. Conversely, if you can control your position sizes, set stop-loss and take-profit levels in advance, and see it as a magnifying glass rather than a life-saving straw, it becomes a sharp but manageable tool. But once you start believing in the logic of "one more time," the market will eventually take back your principal along with your fantasies.
Why do contracts always make people addicted? Simply put, they are just too close to quick money.
