You keep tripping up on contracts? Maybe it's not that the market is too wild; it's that you haven't figured out the right approach yourself.

Having traded for nearly ten years, I've realized one thing: among those who get liquidated, nine out of ten aren't just unlucky—they never even thought about how to manage risk. Today, let's break down a few practical tips.

**Is high leverage always dangerous? Maybe you’ve got it wrong**
Does 100x leverage sound scary? The key is how much money you actually put in. Suppose you only use 1% of your account balance to open a position—even if you crank leverage up to 100x, the real risk you bear is only as much as a 1% move if you went all-in on spot. Remember this formula: real risk = leverage x actual position size. The math doesn't lie.

**Why do seasoned traders always set stop-losses?**
During last year's market crash, stats showed that almost 80% of liquidated retail traders made the same mistake—they stubbornly held on after a 5% paper loss. The traders who survived agree on one thing: never let a single trade lose more than 2% of your total capital. It's not being timid; it's leaving yourself an out.

**Do the math before you open a position**
Here's a simple, no-nonsense formula: your max position size = (total capital x 2%) ÷ (stop-loss % x leverage).

For example: if you have 50,000 in capital and can accept a 2% loss (that’s 1,000), with 10x leverage, you should only put in 5,000 at most. Do the math before you act—don’t just go with your gut.

**Take profits with a plan**
How do you exit when you're making money? Three steps: when up 20%, sell a third; at 50% gain, sell another third; for the rest, close out completely if it drops below the 5-day moving average. Last year, a buddy used this strategy to turn 50,000 into 1 million. Greed is often the killer of profits.

**Hedge your positions**
When you’re holding a position, you can use 1% of your capital to buy a put option as a safety net—this can shield you from 80% of sudden risks. During last year’s black swan event, using this tactic preserved 23% of my capital. It costs a little, but can save you when it counts.

**You can actually calculate if your trading will be profitable**
Here’s an expected return formula: (win rate x average gain) - (loss rate x average loss). If you only lose up to 2% per trade, but your wins average 20%, you can still make money over time even with just a 34% win rate. The math is clear.

**Four iron rules to remember**
1. Never lose more than 2% of your capital on a single trade
2. Keep annual trades under 20
3. Maintain at least a 3:1 profit-loss ratio
4. Spend 70% of your time on the sidelines, only act when the odds are in your favor

Trading isn’t about gut feelings—it’s about discipline. Set your rules in stone and stick to them; that's how you survive long-term in this market.

Stop-loss is truly a critical weakness; I've seen too many people fail because of it.

Same old story. Every time it's all about risk management, but how many people can actually stick to the 2% rule?

Math doesn't lie, but people lie to themselves. That's the real reason behind liquidation.

This 2% stop-loss rule is indeed often talked about, but I’ve found that most people simply can’t stick to it. As soon as the price drops, they just want to average down...

What this guy said is absolutely right, it's just that too many people don't listen.

Damn, I have to take a screenshot of this risk control logic and show it to my friends who keep holding on.
