Another mistake new users make in a bull run is thinking they need 40 tickets to “not miss the 100x.”
You don’t.
You need a short list you actually understand. Five names you can explain without opening Twitter. BNB is usually on that list for a reason, it already survived more than one cycle while most of those 40 names did not.
Even if you catch one 100x, it does not rescue the other 39 bags sitting at −60%, −80%, −90%. The winner does not average the graveyard back to even. It just makes the spreadsheet look busy.
Same energy with leverage.
A bull run for a blue chip is often simple: local bottom → higher high over time. $100 in BNB that doubles is +$100. Boring. Keepable.
Futures turns that into a different game. Now you have to survive every wick *before* the move. The market can still go where you thought. Your account just may not be there when it does.
So if you are new:
pick fewer coins.
size them so a red week is ugly, not fatal.
leave leverage alone until the spot bag is the boring part.
You can lose a bull market by trying to earn more than the bull market was offering.
