Lessons from My First 3 Months of Futures Trading

1️⃣ Small Capital, Great Discipline

You don’t need huge capital to be a successful trader. If you can’t consistently grow small investments, you’re more likely to lose the larger ones. Focus on strategy, not just on capital.

2️⃣ High Margin = High Pressure

The higher your margin, the more impulsive your decisions become. Consider this:

You and I opened a long position of 10x.

My margin: $30 → Position size: $300

Your margin: $200 → Position size: $2,000

When I am down $3, you are down $20. At -15, you are at -100.

Even though our margin ratio is the same (50%), you feel more pressure because the absolute loss in red is mentally overwhelming.

3️⃣ Diversification and Risk Management Are Key

NEVER trade everything in a single position. Instead, wisely divide your capital:

If you have $200 USDT and are willing to risk $30, split it into 4 trades.

Each trade has a stop-loss (15-20 USDT).

If two stop-losses are triggered, you lose 30-40 USDT, but if two hit TP (30% ROI), you recover losses or stay profitable.

If none of the trades hit the stop-loss, you still close some in red but remain in overall profit.

Why a Bad Trade Hurts More

The truth is that most of our trades are successful. What’s the problem? We often reinvest both our capital and our profits into the next trade.

A bad trade wipes out previous gains.

That’s why risk management is critical, so that even when losses come, they don’t erase weeks of progress.

Futures trading is a marathon, not a sprint. More lessons to come!
