I’ve noticed many people talking about demo trading apps. I once had a follower who developed such an app. Back then, he went bankrupt just like I did. I doubted myself—I spent money learning trading strategies, yet still got liquidated. But he was different; he also came from a technical background. I gave him an idea: build a simulation app. The market absolutely has demand for it. He later expanded into affiliate programs and earned at least $1 million. Then he started building his own traffic, creating social media accounts to showcase his “profits.” Many beginners saw him as a guru and ended up paying him hundreds of thousands more in referral commissions. In short—he truly figured it out. Yet people still wonder: Why do I lose when trading futures? Why do I get liquidated? Are futures just a pig butchering scheme? The profits you see? Those are only made by a tiny fraction of traders. These people have two paths: either they disappear, or they’re promoted by exchanges. Just the other day, a second-tier exchange approached me, offering to fund my app with fake money so I could trade freely and even go live—just as long as I couldn’t withdraw real funds. This industry is incredibly deep and murky. Don’t let yourself be brainwashed by market myths. What they show you is designed to make you think, “I can do this too.” In reality, most people get drained of capital and quit the market. Even if there’s another major market move in the future—like the October 11 liquidation event—similar crashes will still happen. The more FOMO dominates the market, the more it becomes a ticking time bomb! Always manage your positions! Always be patient! Always know when to rest!
