After ten years of contracts, I’ve come to understand more and more: leverage has never been the core issue
Over these years, many people have asked me:
“On perpetual contracts, how many times leverage should I open?”$AKE
But what truly determines whether you can go far has never been that number.
Many people think low leverage is always safer, and high leverage is always dangerous.
That’s not really the case.
Leverage is just a tool—it amplifies not only your returns, but also your position, your emotions, and your mistakes.
Getting the direction right doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll make money.
If your position is too heavy, even one normal fluctuation can knock you out early.$SPCX
So the real things that matter for contracts are three:
First, control your position size.
Don’t let one wrong call affect your entire account.
Second, use strict stop-losses.
If you’re wrong, admit it—don’t gamble on the market coming back with holding losses and averaging down.
Third, let go of the get-rich-quick mindset.
Trading isn’t about trying to double every single trade; it’s about staying in the market long-term.$BTC
Disciplined trading is more important than blind, high leverage.
Leverage itself isn’t the problem.
What easily consumes your account is greed, overconfidence, and loss of control.
In contract trading, first learn to protect your principal, then consider magnifying your profits.
Because the market will always have opportunities,
but only those who survive have the right to wait for the next one.
