I was in a Twitter Space today, listening to a very experienced trader. He confidently told everyone to short Bitcoin and altcoins, predicting that BTC was going to drop into the 90K range and that altcoins would dump hard.

Now, as we approach the end of the day, Bitcoin is pumping  already trading above $96K. At this point, it’s likely that his stop-loss was hit, or worse, he got liquidated.

It makes me wonder: how do even seasoned traders still get it wrong on intraday moves?

Let me know your thoughts.

I have coinbase in the US and it allows me to do 1000$ in futures but if I screw that up dont i owe coin base?
