Why Leverage Keeps Blowing Up Crypto Traders (And What To Do Instead)

from The Orange Brick Road Podcast Hosted by Brandon Bartlett

Send us Fan Mail Why Leverage Keeps Blowing Up Crypto Traders (And What To Do Instead) “Leverage Just Snapped: Why the Latest Flush Wasn’t ‘News’ – It Was Liquidations” Leverage and derivatives have been around since ancient Greece, but they’re still blowing up modern portfolios. What started as a simple way to hedge has turned into a casino where over‑leveraged traders get liquidated so the big players can walk away with the profits. This latest wipeout was a textbook example: no major news, no big catalyst – just leverage snapping. Metals, stocks, and Bitcoin all dumped in sync as crowded trades were forced to unwind, while spot buyers stayed intact and now get to buy quality assets at a discount. 👉 Want to understand how to position without getting wrecked by leverage?
