### What is a Sell Order in Crypto Trading? 📉

In crypto futures trading (like ETHUSDT Perpetual on Binance), a **sell order** (often called "shorting" or "short position") is when you bet that the price of an asset, like Ethereum (ETH), will **drop** in value. Instead of buying low and selling high, you **sell high first** (borrow the asset, sell it now) and **buy low later** to return it, pocketing the difference as profit. This is perfect for bearish markets! 🐻

**Quick Math Example (Transparent Calc):**

- Position value: $5,000 (1.34 ETH at $1,481/entry).

- If hits TP ($1,420): Profit = (1,481 - 1,420) × 1.34 ETH × 5x leverage = ~$404 (before fees).

- If hits SL ($1,500): Loss = (1,500 - 1,481) × 1.34 × 5x = ~$127.

Formula: Profit/Loss = (Exit - Entry) × Quantity × Leverage. Easy to verify in Binance's calculator! 🧮
