Why You Shouldn’t Short Pre-Market Tokens 😨 Pre-market futures let you trade a token before it even drops, since the TGE hasn’t happened yet. 👌 Going long 1x? Totally chill! You're just gaining exposure, and no liquidation worries. But shorting? That’s a whole different ball game—super risky! Why? Pre-markets are like a ghost town—no liquidity, no oracles linking to spot markets, and zero real price discovery. 📉 A few big players can send prices flying, and one quick pump can wipe out all your shorts. We’ve seen it on Hyperliquid, MEXC, and Gateio! 😱 Traders trying to hedge airdrops or bet against inflated valuations often get caught in the chaos. With no price anchors or spot market for arbitrage, exiting is tricky! Need to hedge before TGE? Use isolated margin and lower your collateral so liquidation is close to your stop. And remember: don’t rely on those stop losses with these pairs! ❗️
