📌 Binance Futures trading experience: Slow but steady, surviving is victory.

Hello community, I would like to share some real-world experiences when trading Futures on Binance – especially for those new to the market, with the hope of helping everyone avoid painful mistakes and go further on this path.

⚠️ 1. Only use a maximum leverage of x5.

One of the most common mistakes of newcomers is using too high leverage (x20, x50, even x100) to "win fast." But in reality, this is an extremely dangerous double-edged sword.

The higher the leverage → even a small fluctuation can cause the account to burn.

With x5, you can still make good profits but reduce the risk of losses due to sudden fluctuations.

Advice:

"Don't care about short-term profits. The top priority is to survive through each order."

📊 2. Must have Stop-loss (SL) and clear risk management.

Trading without setting SL is self-sabotage.

A trade order must always have:

Entry: clear entry point (according to technical analysis).

Stop-loss (SL): the point to cut losses to keep the account alive.

Take-profit (TP): profit target.

I always follow the R:R ratio of at least 1:2 or 1:3, meaning:

Maximum loss of 1 part (1R), but winning will gain 2–3 parts (2–3R).

Can be wrong 50% but still profit because the profit ratio is higher than the risk.

✅ Example:

Entry BTC: $60,000.

SL: $59,500 (-$500)

TP: $61,500 (+$1,500)

→ R:R = 1:3 → 3 wins are enough to compensate for 3 losses.

🧠 3. Trade according to the system – no FOMO, no emotions.

Never enter an order just because you see others entering, or because you're afraid of 'missing an opportunity.' I always adhere to the principle:

Technical Analysis (TA): using support/resistance, RSI, MACD, EMA

Do not trade when feeling unstable: stressed, sleepy, angry = take a break.

Keep a trading journal: record the reasons for entering orders, results, and learn from experiences.

🔄 4. Have a clear process before entering an order.

My entry checklist:

Market trend: is it uptrend or downtrend?

Is there a confirming technical signal yet?

Is the entry point – SL – TP clear?

After entering an order, can you not look at the chart? If not → Do not enter.

Does the risk of this order exceed 1-2% of total assets? If yes → Reduce volume.

💼 5. Capital management is the key to long-term survival.

My 'golden' principle:

Each order should only risk a maximum of 1–2% of the account.

Never 'all-in' on any order.

Having 10 consecutive wrong orders but still have capital to learn more.

📈 6. Only trade when there is a clear advantage (Edge).

Not every market condition should be traded.

I only enter orders when:

Nice signals + clear trend.

Stable market volume (avoid big unexpected news).

Clear chart, no 'noise'.

"Doing nothing" is also a strategy.

✅ 7. Personal experience & practical advice.

Trade less but with much higher quality than entering 10 random orders every day.

Better to wait for a good opportunity for 2–3 days to enter an order than to take risks every hour.

If the market feels 'strange' → take a break, reset your mindset.

Don't force yourself to 'make money every day' from Futures – this is not an ATM.

🔚 Conclusion: Futures trading is not for the impatient.

If you are new, please:

Start with low leverage.

Tight capital management.

Have a clear system.

And most importantly: respect the market, do not play with fire.

Winning and losing is normal; surviving is the most important thing.

Thank you for reading this far; I wish everyone effective trading and always keep a cool head 🧊!
