1. Full position mode: Either get rich or go broke
Full position is like gambler mode—putting all the money in the account together, gains and losses are shared.
Advantages: High capital utilization, strong ability to withstand volatility. If the market temporarily retraces, full position can help you hold out longer.
Deadly disadvantage: once a position blows up, the entire account is instantly cleared, leaving no chance to recover.
Who is it suitable for?
Wealthy players who can withstand severe volatility.
Short-term experts, accurately timing entry and exit.
Who is it not suitable for?
Small fund players (extremely high risk of liquidation).
Newbies with unstable mindset (a single mistake can lead to total loss).
2. Isolated position mode: losses have a bottom line, liquidation doesn't carry over.
Isolated positions mean "position management", each position calculates profits and losses independently, one blowing up doesn't affect the others.
Advantages: Risks are controllable, won't be completely wiped out because of one position blowing up.
Disadvantages: Low capital utilization, weak resistance to holding positions, easily shaken out by short-term volatility.
Who is it suitable for?
Conservative traders, who don't want to go all in.
Strategy testing phase, use small funds to experiment.
For example 🌰:
You have 1000 USDT, in full position mode, if one position loses 500, the platform will deduct it from your 1000.
But if it's isolated positions, you allocate 500 USDT to each of the two positions, if one blows up, the other 500 is still there!
3. Profit-taking and stop-loss: Don't wait for the market to butcher you, set your exit strategy in advance!
Profit-taking = cashing out at the right time, securing profits.
Stop-loss = accepting losses and exiting, avoiding liquidation.
But many people fail because they don't set profit-taking and stop-loss, and in the end, they get taken away by the market.
Latest price vs. marked price: which one is more reliable?
✅ Latest price = market real-time transaction price, highly volatile, suitable for short-term players.
✅ Marked price = the 'smoothed price' calculated by the platform, reducing the risk of liquidation from spikes, suitable for long-term holding.
How to choose?
Want to enter and exit quickly → Use the latest price, reacts quickly, but can easily be caught by a spike.
Want to be a bit steadier → Use the marked price to reduce short-term volatility interference, but may miss the best profit-taking point.
4. The ultimate survival rule: Don't let the market decide your life or death!
Full position = high risk high reward (suitable for veterans, but don't be greedy).
Isolated positions = low risk stable income (suitable for beginners, but don't expect to get rich).
Profit-taking and stop-loss = the lifeline of trading (not set? The market will teach you how to behave in no time).
Remember:
"The market won't kill you, but your greed will." Control your positions and set stop losses to survive in the crypto world!
