They open positions based on feelings and rely on forgetfulness for stop-losses. When they face liquidation, they are confused: 'I clearly only invested a little, how come all the money is gone?' Today, we will thoroughly explain the differences between using full margin and isolated margin.

Isolated margin is a 'risk boundary' model: the margin set when opening a position is the upper limit of the loss. For instance, if you invest 500U to open a position, even if the market runs against you, once you lose that 500U, it will automatically close the position, leaving the rest of your account funds intact. It allows for independent risk control and steady progress, making it a 'safety shield' for beginners to protect their capital.

On the other hand, full margin is a 'shared risk' model: after opening a position, the system treats all the funds in the account as 'backing'. When the market fluctuates, it uses spare cash to cover losses. This may seem to have a high tolerance for errors, but it actually hides dangers—if you keep positions without stop-losses, once the market reverses beyond expectations, the originally small position loss can snowball and drag down the entire account. The situation of 'losing all your account from just a small position' is too common, making it akin to a 'time bomb of gambler-style trading'.

How to choose? Beginners should definitely opt for isolated margin to practice judgment and control risks, allowing every trade to have an 'escape route'; experienced traders with a mature system may try full margin for efficiency, but remember: the 'efficiency' of full margin is always built on strict stop-loss practices. If you don’t have this habit, don’t touch it; otherwise, you are pushing your account into risk.

Contract trading is not about making a single huge profit, but rather about the ability to survive long-term. There is no good or bad between full margin and isolated margin; it depends on whether you can manage the risks. Market opportunities are often present, but those who can seize them are always the ones who have solidified their foundation and are good at risk control—understanding the rules early allows you to steadily seize opportunities when the market comes.
