4.5

no biggie but sorta sucks - i only put in trading account what I could afford to lose

was up 30 btc in profit off 5 trades, and for the last 27 trades in a row I've made small losses - then out of nowhere yesterday BTC started to moon, I tried to hold through it expecting it to stop and ETH to rebound and - well - we all know what happened next...

He has a choice to hold and hope it never goes down a few more cents cause 100% liquidation
or: he can sell now and take the 95% loss

ETH looking good, but you people should stop using "stop-losses". Grow a pair and learn how to hold, specially because Ethereum is not just "another crypto", is the direct alternative for those who can't afford to buy cheap Bitcoins anymore.

it wasn't a stop loss - it was a forced liquidation

i believe the term is 'cascading margin call' - the same thing happened when ETH hit like 10 cents on GDAX - you can force this to happen if you're a whale, and want to essentially go 'stop loss hunting'
