🔓 Master Futures Trading: Demystifying PNL, Leverage & Pro Strategies!
Hey Binance Square Fam! 💛
Ever stared at a futures screenshot and wondered, “What do these numbers actually mean?” Let's break down the core terms and smart strategies that separate risky guesses from calculated moves. 📊⚔️
🚀 Key Futures Terms Explained:
💹 Unrealized PNL – Real-time profit or loss on open trades.
💚 Green = Gain | ❤️ Red = Loss
📈 ROI – Return on your margin (%). High ROI often signals high leverage — proceed with caution! ⚠️
💰 Size – Total value of your position (e.g., 0.01 BTC × $70,000 = $700)
🧾 Margin – The actual amount of your capital backing the trade
🔁 Leverage (10x–125x) – Multiplies both potential profits 💸 and losses 🔻
🎯 Entry Price – The price you entered the trade
📊 Mark Price – Used to calculate PNL, not the last traded price
💥 Liq. Price (Liquidation Price) – If hit, your position is closed automatically 💀
⚡ Leverage: Double-Edged Sword
With 10x leverage, a 1% price move = 10% impact on your PNL.
At 125x? Even tiny swings can wipe you out. 🧨
🧠 Smart Futures Trading Tips:
✔️ Start small with low leverage
✔️ Always set a Stop-Loss (SL)
✔️ Understand Cross vs. Isolated Margin
✔️ Never risk more than you can afford to lose
✔️ Keep learning and refining your strategy 📚
📌 Trading isn’t gambling — it’s a skill. Stay informed, stay sharp, and protect your capital at all times.
