$BTC If you want to survive in this market, learn the golden rule first: never risk more than 1% of your capital on a single trade.
Let’s say your account balance is $100.
Don’t trade like you’re Elon Musk ready to throw the entire wallet into one position.
What should you do instead?
Risk only $1 per trade.
Sounds small? Maybe. But that’s how traders stay alive in the game.
With 20x leverage, that $1 risk can still give you exposure to a $20 position size while keeping your downside controlled.
And if the trade moves against you?
No panic.
Set your stop-loss before entering. Use DCA carefully if needed. Or simply take the small loss and move on.
Worst case? You lose $1 — not your whole account.
You still have $99 left for the next opportunity.
That’s the difference between gambling and real trading: discipline, patience, and risk management.
