๐ Binance Summer Camp โ Day 7: What I Learned About Futures
Day 7 was all about futures trading and leverage, and honestly, it made me look at futures much more carefully.
Hereโs what I took away:
๐น Long & Short: Futures let me trade price direction without owning the underlying asset.
๐น Leverage: It amplifies both gains and losses. The higher the leverage, the closer liquidation can be.
๐น Liquidation: If losses reduce the margin too much, the position can be force-closed.
๐น Funding Rate: It helps keep perpetual futures prices close to spot and is exchanged between traders.
๐น Risk management: For a first trade, the lesson is simple: lower leverage, smaller position size and a Stop-Loss set before entry.
My biggest takeaway? Leverage isnโt a shortcut to bigger profits โ it also means bigger risks. Understanding the mechanics comes first. ๐
