Read this BEFORE opening a position.
Most beginners burn through their capital in 48 hours. Here's why — and how to avoid it:
⚡ 1. Leverage is not a cheat code
x10, x20, x50… the higher your leverage, the closer your liquidation is. Start at x3 or x5 maximum. Survival first.
🛡️ 2. Stop-Loss = mandatory. Always.
No Stop-Loss = you're playing Russian roulette. Place it BEFORE entering, not after losing.
📐 3. Never risk more than 1-2% per trade
One single trade should never be able to ruin you. Manage your position size like a pro.
🧠 4. Emotions kill accounts
FOMO, revenge trading, overconfidence after a big gain… These are your worst enemies. The market doesn't care about your feelings.
📊 5. Test first in demo account
Binance offers a simulation mode. Use it until you are profitable on 30 consecutive trades. Not before.
⏰ 6. Liquidity sessions: London & New York
Big moves happen at the opening of London (9am CET) and New York (3pm CET). Be there or be square.
