I used to only trade with isolated margin on Binance Futures — felt safer. But one day, I had a winning ETH position running and spotted a great setup on SOL. Instead of overextending, I switched to Cross Margin Mode. It let my ETH profits support the new SOL trade.
SOL dipped a bit, but I didn’t get liquidated — ETH held the line. Then SOL pumped. Closed both trades in profit.
Since then? Cross margin is my go-to. It gives me more breathing room and keeps me in the game when it matters.
