It's not for everybody and whoever trades in leverage and manages to take the risk properly and able to profit, you have an idea on how to control yourself. What's wrong with people hearing others doing leverage trading being profitable, they think that it's also going to work for them. But that's not it, it's hard to get into leverage when you are less experienced trader and you are trying it without further knowledge. You're gonna be consumed by the market and will be easily liquidated.

Leverage trading is advanced trading and not suitable for beginners to be doing. Anybody that wants to get into leverage trading have to first have mastered spot trading and become a constant profitable trader before getting into leverage trading. With the experience from spot trading, they can do well with leverage. Not everybody can be a leverage trader because they don't have the thinking or mindset. Leverage trading has more risk to it and any mistakes can make you lose more money. With leverage you're putting in more risk and that's why people get liquidated quite easily when trading with leverage.

It is a good condition that they must be profitable and consistent if they're into spot and wanting to have a transition into futures or leverage trading. That's true that it's advanced way of trading and has higher risk compared to spot trading. When the market surprises some short squeeze, the longs will be liquidated and if the market surprises with some surprising pumps, the shorts will be squeezed.
