Analysis of one of user who getting loss because of poor strategy . Binance Futures Positions & Why You're Losing Money.
His screenshot was posted on square, he isholding three losing positions in futures trading (BEL/USDT, T/USDT, BIO/USDT), all in cross-margin mode with high leverage (20x–40x). Here’s why you’re seeing losses:
Key Problems in his Trades
High Leverage (20x–40x) + Cross-Margin = High Risk
Even small price movements can wipe out your margin.
Example: Your BEL/USDT (20x) position is down -$365 (-43.8% from entry).
Liquidation Prices Are Close
BEL/USDT: Liq. price = **0.32388∗∗(Markprice:0.32388∗∗(Markprice:0.52960)
T/USDT: Liq. price = **0.0242223∗∗(Markprice:0.0242223∗∗(Markprice:0.0213022 → Very close!)
If the market moves slightly against you, you’ll get liquidated.
Poor Risk Management (No Stop-Loss?)
Your TPSL (Take Profit/Stop Loss) for BEL/USDT (0.77000 / 0.48000) is too wide.
Your T/USDT position is already -229∗∗down,butyourstop−lossisat∗∗229∗∗down,butyourstop−lossisat∗∗0.023, meaning more losses before it triggers.
Margin Ratio Too High (25.88%)
A high margin ratio means you’re overexposed—any further drop will liquidate you.
Market Trend (BIO/USDT Example)
His BIO/USDT position is down -$178 (-14.6%).
The coin is in a downtrend (Mark price 0.04665∗∗vs.entry∗∗0.04665∗∗vs.entry∗∗0.05346).
What Should You Do Now?
1. Emergency Actions (Avoid Liquidation)
Close the T/USDT Position Immediately
It’s very close to liquidation (Mark price: 0.0213∗∗vs.Liq:∗∗0.0213∗∗vs.Liq:∗∗0.0242).
If T drops another ~13%, you lose everything.
Reduce Leverage or Add Margin
Switch to lower leverage (5x–10x) or add more funds to avoid liquidation.
