Imagine you're learning to ride a bike,$
and someone hands you a racing bike right away. What would happen?
The speed would feel exciting,
but if you lose control, an accident is inevitable.
In reality, Futures trading is exactly like this.
โก What's the problem with Futures?
In Futures:
There's leverage
A small price movement
And your account either doublesโฆ
or goes to zero.
Example:
Just a 5% market move,
and with 10x leverage,
50% of your capital is wiped out.
๐ง Why do beginners get trapped here?
๐น The temptation of fast profits
๐น Pressure from seeing green P&L screenshots
๐น The fear of missing out on a trade
๐น Lack of proper risk management
Result?
๐ Overtrading
๐ No stop-loss
๐ Making emotional decisions
๐ Why are losses so fast in Futures?
Because:
The market doesn't give you a second chance
Liquidation happens automatically
The system doesn't understand your emotions
Mistakes aren't forgiven here; instead, your money is wiped out.
โ ๏ธ This is the biggest myth
โI'll do a little Futures trading, I'll keep it under control.โ
Reality:
Leverage doesn't give you control,
it demands discipline โ
which beginners usually lack.
๐ง My personal rule
First, understand spot trading and holding
Learn market behavior
Learn to protect your capital
Futures:
๐ Only for a small part of your portfolio
๐ Only when you have enough experience using stop-losses
๐ก Final Thought
Futures trading isn't wrong,
but starting it prematurely is.
First, survive,
then profits will come gradually on their own.
