📘 Leverage & Liquidation — Don’t Let It Liquidate You! ⚠️💥
New to futures trading? Before you jump in, make sure you understand these two words that can either grow your account — or destroy it fast 😬👇
🔹 What is Leverage?
Leverage means borrowing extra “power” from the platform.
Example: You have $10, but with 10x leverage, you’re trading like you have $100 💸
⚠️ More leverage = more risk. You can earn big, but also lose fast.
🔹 What is Liquidation?
If the trade moves too far against you, the platform forces your position to close.
That’s liquidation — and yes, you can lose your entire margin 😢
💡 Beginner Tips: 1️⃣ Use low leverage (1x–3x is enough to start)
2️⃣ Always set a stop loss
3️⃣ Don’t treat leverage like a shortcut to get rich quick
🎯 Futures trading is a tool — not a gamble. If you understand the risks and manage your trades well, you’re already ahead of many.
