Trading Futures (futures contracts) on Binance is an attractive form of investment due to the ability to quickly amplify profits. But because of that, it has also become a place where many people 'disappear' after just a few clicks. So can you profit? The answer: You can profit, but it's very easy to get burned.
👉 1. What is Future? Clear advantages & disadvantages
Advantages – Big gains if the direction is right
• Allow high leverage: x10, x50, even x100.
• Just a few percentage points in the right direction can yield significant profits.
Disadvantages – One slip can wipe out your account
• Trading at the wrong time or getting 'swept' lightly is enough to wipe out the account.
• Low survival rate without skills and discipline.
👉 2. Can you make a profit? Depends on...
Skill factors
• Don't know how to read charts, lack of knowledge in capital management, easily make emotional decisions.
News factors
• The crypto market is a marketplace full of rumors. Trading futures without reading news is like blindfolding yourself while catching sharks.
Psychological factors
• Impatience, greed to recover, and FOMO are three monsters that specialize in killing future traders.
👉 3. How to avoid getting burned?
Basic survival principles
• Only trade when there is a clear setup, with SL/TP ready from the start.
• Just a small leverage (x3–x5 is enough), not because of fear but to survive longer.
• Don't enter trades when the market is choppy (news, CPI, Fed...).
• Only use idle capital – accept losing 100% without losing your spirit.
👉 4. Basic Futures Trading Strategies for Beginners
Strategic structure
• Timeframe: 15 minutes – 1 hour (suitable for day trading)
• Leverage: x3–x5 (enough to amplify profits while still controlling risk)
• Risk per trade: Maximum 1–2% of total capital
Indicators used
• EMA 50 + EMA 200: Determine the main trend
• RSI (14): Identify divergence, overbought/oversold areas
• Volume: Confirm when the price breaks out
• MACD: Increases reliability when there is divergence or a trend reversal
How to enter trades correctly
Enter Long (buy up) when:
• Price exceeds EMA 50 and EMA 200
• RSI above 50 but not overbought
• Volume increases
• MACD crosses up
Enter Short (sell down) when:
• Price crosses down EMA 50 and EMA 200
• RSI below 50 but not oversold
• Volume increases significantly
• MACD crosses down
Smart order management
• Take Profit (TP): According to a minimum R:R ratio of 1:2 (loss of $10 means TP of $20).
• Stop Loss (SL): Set immediately when entering the trade – below the nearest low if Long, above the nearest high if Short.
• Trailing Stop: Move SL according to the price to protect profits if the market moves in the right direction.
⚠️ 5. Discipline is a survival factor
• Don't enter trades based on emotions.
• Don't hold onto losses.
• No revenge trading: If you lose a trade, take a 15-minute break instead of trying to “recover”.
• Keep a trading journal: Learn from experiences, recognize mistakes to improve.
⚒️ 6. Support Tools
• TradingView: Chart drawing, indicator setting – free, easy to use.
• Binance Futures Grid: For those without time to monitor trades – uses AI to trade within a range.

✅ Conclusion: Futures Are Not for Emotion-Driven Traders
Trading Futures is not gambling – it's a high-speed sport that requires skill, discipline, and absolute control over emotions.
To survive and make a profit: you must have a strategy.
Your money, your responsibility — trade wisely.
