Want to survive trading BTC futures for a long time? Remember these three life-saving rules, more important than technology!
Don't go all in—no matter how much money you have, you can't withstand life-or-death style orders
For example, if you have $1000 in your pocket:
Never risk all your capital to open a 20x leveraged position; if Bitcoin drops by 5%, your account will go to zero without discussion.
💡 Correct strategy: Use only $50-100 (5%-10% of your capital) for each order and open 5-10x leverage. Keep the remaining $950 for averaging down or opening new positions, leaving yourself an escape route.
Stop-loss is a life-saving talisman—trading without stop-loss is equivalent to suicide
Here's a practical example:
You short at 95000, set your stop-loss at 96000, and take profit at 93000. The maximum loss is $1000, and the maximum profit can be $2000. This is called a "lose 1, gain 2" trade.
⭐️ The key is to know how to read candlestick charts and find entry and exit points.
What if you don't set a stop-loss? If the price rises slightly to 96000, your account will go bust without discussion.
Bet in batches—don't shoot all your bullets at the same price level
For example, if you want to short in the 93000-95000 range:
Don't go all in at 93000; split your bets into three: first, place 30% at 93000, if it rises to 94000, add another 30%, and hold the remaining 40% until it reaches 95000 to strike.
This is called a "counterattack" style order; even if the price continues to rise, you still have bullets to remedy the situation.
Summary of key points:
The amount of money doesn't matter; what matters is how you use it. As long as you have the green mountains, you won't fear not having firewood. If you reach your preset loss limit, withdraw quickly. Manage your positions = sleep well + lose less money + live longer for a chance to turn things around.
