🎯 THE MOST IMPORTANT LESSON
✅ 1. Futures = a risk management game, NOT a guessing game
You can make 6 wrong trades and still be profitable if you manage your capital well.
✅ 2. Never use high leverage when you are new to trading
✅ 3. Always have a Stop Loss
Not placing a stop = sooner or later you will get burned.
✅ 4. Don't short when the market is rising sharply
Don't long when the market is in free fall
👉 Strong trends can “defy logic” for a long time.
⸻
✅ 5. Risk only 1–2% of your account on each trade
If you have $1000 → you can only lose a maximum of $10–20 on one trade.
🚨 Newbie mistakes
• Seeing others brag about profits → going in with full margin
• Trying to recover losses by increasing lot size
• Trading based on emotions
• Not understanding funding fees
• Not understanding liquidation price

🧠 The right mindset about futures
Futures are NOT:
“Get rich quick scheme”
But rather:
“A tool for making money slowly and steadily, if you survive long enough.
