@lukestokes,
I did margin trades at forex but in crypto I didn't try this out. Coz I feel margin trades can be a loss as I experienced in forex. Thank you very much for this sharing your experience. This will help the community to understand crypto trading is not a safe heaven. Really sorry for the loss that you have experienced.

Cryptos have crazy moves. I don't think margin trading with cryptos would be a wise thing to do. Not even with the shares of small companies because they too have crazy moves!
