Contract Trading | What’s the difference between unrealized and realized P&L?
At 10x leverage, a 5% price increase means a return of about 50% on a long position; conversely, a 5% drop means a return of −50%.
In cross margin mode, unrealized profits are added to your margin balance, helping other positions absorb volatility. When the price pulls back, that cushion shrinks too.
Coin mentioned: $BTC , current price 77794 (24h +0.67%).
Keep extra buffer in futures trading—don’t let a sudden wick liquidate your position.
