Every second newcomer in crypto goes into futures, turns on x2-x50 and… loses everything in a couple of hours.
Why? Because no one teaches the simple truth: liquidation is the result of your greed, carelessness, and lack of a system.
Let’s analyze how not to fall into this trap:
1. Don't enter a trade without a point of support
If you don't see a clear level of support/resistance or formation on the chart — you are playing in a casino.
Any trade should not be “I feel it will go up,” but “I see where the entry, stop, and target are.”
2. Don’t trade everything — leave some buffer.
You are not obliged to “enter with your entire deposit.”
Leave at least 50% in reserve to:
Weather the drawdown
Average down (if it's in the plan)
Not get liquidated from a single “wick”
3. Forget about x50. Work with leverage wisely
High leverage is only for experienced traders with micro-risk, or scalpers with a strict system.
If you are a beginner — don't go above x3-x5 and only with isolated margin.
This is not a casino, where you'll get “lucky.”
4. Stop-loss is your friend, not a traitor.
Many think: “Well, I'm confident in the move, no need for a stop…”
Such phrases lead to -100% in a trade.
Set your stop where the idea breaks. Not with emotions, but with logic.
5. Don’t expect the market to show mercy.
Fell into the negative? Hoping for a rebound?
The market will not “buy back for you.” If a drawdown occurs — lock in the loss and exit.
Transitioning to “I hope” is no longer trading.
6. Isolated margin and risk 1-3% per trade are mandatory.
Isolated margin = you won’t lose your entire account with one mistake.
Risk 1-3% = you will withstand a series of failures and not break down mentally.
It’s like a bulletproof vest: it may not look good, but it saves lives.
And finally — how this looks in practice:
> “I was in profit, the price went down a bit — I added leverage. Then more. Then — liquidation. All in a couple of minutes.”
Conclusion:
Want to survive on futures? Work with a system, not with hope. Lock in profits, limit losses, and think like a pro — “first defense, then profit.”
