Trade Review and Reflection Log Date: September 25, 2026 Trading Instrument: ETHUSDT Perpetual Contract Position Direction: Long (Buy) Entry Price: 2,730.00 USDT Initial Capital: Approximately 14.11 USDT Current Balance: 10.39 USDT Daily Profit/Loss: -3.68 USDT (-26.20%) 1. Operation Review 1. Violation of Execution: The original strategy was to use only 25% of the position size per trade for trial, but in this trade, it switched directly to full position (100% of capital). Used 10x leverage, pushing the nominal position value close to 140 USDT (about 0.051 ETH). 2. Entering at a High Price: Entered a long position at market price when the price surged to the high of 2,730. This entry was over 30 USDT above the previous breakout point (2,700 level) and close to a dense daily resistance zone above, without waiting for any pullback confirmation. 3. Risk Control Failure and Passive Drawdown: After the price surged, it quickly plunged and retraced. Due to full position with 10x leverage lacking a safety margin, every 10 USDT price retracement caused about a 3.5% shrink in account capital; with a roughly 70 USDT retracement (breaking below around 2,660), the account net value dropped directly from 14.11 to 10.39 USDT, a single trade drawdown of 26.20%
