complete tutorial on how to use the Binance app for trading. To do this, we first need to configure a few things. The first is to check if we are using the Pro version of the app.
Notice that in my app it says "Binance Lite," meaning I'm already using the Pro version. If it says " Binance Pro Seg," it means you 're not using it yet; just
click the button below and switch to the Pro version. Another setting we need to change is the app's language. To do this, go to the gear icon at the top, look for "Language," and change it
from Brazilian Portuguese to standard Portuguese ( standard Portuguese ( Portugal). This will enable the futures/derivatives tab. Let's go back
to our home screen and notice that the futures tab is now enabled in our Binance app. If this is the first time you're changing the language, you might see a small
disclaimer stating that there is n't yet legislation for derivatives trading in Brazil. However, this is just a disclaimer from Binance itself.  There's no law prohibiting
you from trading derivatives, but since there's no legislation, brokers ca n't offer this service. So it's not a crime; you're not committing any
broker is assuming responsibility. So, let's click on futures now, and here we have our futures tab where we can make our trades. Right at the top of the
application, you'll notice that we have are just some trading alternatives. But the most common are USDM,
where we use BTC or any other cryptocurrency pegged to the dollar, pegged to a stablecoin, whether it's USDT or USDC. And here in the
coin option, we're basically using BTC to trade BTC. So our margin for our trades is the cryptocurrency itself; this way, we win in crypto and also lose in crypto. While here in USDM, we're
trading in dollars, so we'll win in dollars and we'll lose in dollars that we always need to have a balance in this case.  I already have 10 in my balance here to make this tutorial for you, but if you don't have 100
open orders, an option will appear for you to transfer funds, okay? Or even by clicking next to the SDM, we can also transfer funds. In this case, this is a tutorial account, I only have 10, but here you
can add more funds, more capital for your operations. Another important point is that if you are trading in USDT, you will look up here for the USDT pair. Notice that I have BTC USDT, but if I search here, I
BTC USDT, but if I search here, I will also have BTC will also have BTC USDC, right? However, you need to see which stablecoin you have. If you have an SDC, then you will
look for the pair in SDC. If you have an SDT, you will look for the pair here in USDT, okay? In this case, I have Teter here. Okay, so let's leave it as it is up here. You can search for currency pairs, so for example, I don't want to trade
here.  I want to trade, for example, Solana, so I click here, type in Solana, notice that here I have Solana USDT, and here I can trade Solana, right? Right, from Binance, there are other options, there's
a box that's basically promotional from Binance itself, on the side I have a candlestick pattern, clicking here I'll basically see the Solana chart, I can change the timeframe, I can also
add indicators, so we can do a more technical price analysis to open our positions, on the side we have a calculator, so I can calculate
my profit and loss, I can simulate an entry, I can simulate a target price, my liquidation price, so just how much leverage you're going to enter, whether it's cross margin, what the
entry price is, what the quantity is, what the balance is, it will give the result here, maximum opening value, etc. There are many options here for you to use your calculator, and here are the three dots.
Okay, so we have more settings now. We can access the simulated trading mode, which is the simulator. We can adjust some positions, which are slightly more advanced settings. This tutorial is quite
basic. If you want, I can make another video explaining it in more depth, but in this tutorial, we'll do it in the we can switch the trading mode from classic mode to easy mode. I
don't recommend this because we'll have far fewer functionalities. in our application; however, we lose a lot of functionality. I want to open and close at market. I don't have many
options when I activate this easy mode functionality. So, let's leave it in classic mode. We also have our preferences here. We can configure order confirmation, so if
you place an order, it will always ask for confirmation. If you don't want to, you can uncheck these options at the beginning. It's always best to leave them checked because it prevents you from clicking the wrong thing, making a
an order you don't want.  So it's interesting to leave this here, especially for those who are starting out, to have everything activated. Okay, in personal position mode, here we have the hedging mode, which is basically the R mode, so this is
just a translation, but in Red mode you can open a long and a short position on the same currency pair at the same time. Whereas in unilateral mode you can only do one operation at a time. So you can only be
either long or short. Unilateral mode is easier for problems. I personally like Red mode here, we have a wide range of strategies using Red mode, so I leave it activated here in
Red mode. In personal asset mode, we can choose whether I want my account margin to be only the tether I put there or if I want to use multiple assets. This basically means that if
you activate multiple assets mode, it will take as margin, as collateral for your operations, other cryptocurrencies you have, including the coins you want to include, for example, from Spot to futures. So I'll
give an example: I want to use my Bitcoin that I have for Hold, right, but I don't want to trade. With it, but I want to put it as collateral, so you can transfer that Bitcoin to your futures operation, to your
futures account. It will serve as margin. I personally don't advise you to do that; leave it in the activated mode, just the single mode, which is easier for you to manage. Here we have other
settings: price protection, order adjustment, nothing so important for We also have position display mode; we have the detailed mode, we personally prefer the detailed mode here. We also have the
options: where you want the chart to appear, if you don't want a chart, if you want the order creation scheme, to the right, to the left. And that's much more personal. I personally like the default here. Okay, we've already seen the
application, here in the corner where it says " Cross". We're going to change our margin mode. If you want " cross", know that you will be using all the capital of your futures account as collateral for your
operations. If you're starting now, the ideal is that you use the ideal is that you use isolated margin. Because with isolated margin, you only use as collateral the amount of capital you put in.  So, for that
trade, if in this case I put in a trade of Solana 5, I'll only put in a trade of Solana 5, I'll only be willing to lose $5; it won't consume more than that. Now, if I enter with 5 in cross-margin and I don't
stop or something like that, I can lose all the capital I have in my important that you have this discernment. I even have a video you can understand a little better this difference between
isolated margin and cross-margin. Next to our margin option, we also have our leverage section. Remember, folks, leverage is much more about risk management than the number itself. You can use
high leverage, but if you have extremely controlled risk management, it 's not a mistake, it's not a sin to use high leverage as long as you're within the management. The biggest mistake people make is
leveraging too much without risk management, and then things certainly don't work. So here you'll put your leverage. Next to it, we have the little 's' which goes to the assets mode, which in this case...  People don't
mess with it, and next to all this we have our funding rate, right? Our fund rate. Notice that at this moment Solana is charging a fee of 0.01 per position, and it will be charged in
4:30. Since this rate is positive, it means that buyers, those with long positions, will pay those with short positions. There's also a video on the channel talking about
video on the channel talking about trading fees, right? Below we have the option to open or close. This only appears if you are in R mode. This is because I can open a long position and a
short position at the same time, and then I have the option to close either of these two. Below we have the available balance. How much do I have? And below that we have the option of what
type of order we will place. I have the option of a limit order, just placement, market limit, market stop, trailing stop, etc. We have several options. The most used are limit orders and
market orders. There's even a tutorial here for you if you don't know the market order is basically where you'll instantly have your position allocated here in our limit order. You'll leave it fixed, right? You'll leave
a fixed order there; if it reaches that price, it will be executed. Okay, we have others here; we just have put orders. Okay, we have several types of orders, right? Limit Stop, so there are plenty of options here for us to open. Right, in this
market order. Right here below, we have an amount in USDT. Remember that I to find it, in this case, I'll put it in USDT. And here we have a bar. Okay, what percentage
can I put? For example, 100% of my position, right? My account, so in this case, would open with $1, I can put 50% here. Okay, and you 'll define that here for our tutorial. Let's say I'll open with 100%
of my capital. Okay, and let's open a long position here. It will give me my confirmation. Okay, so as we configured it to confirm here, I...  I can even set my TP and SL, right? So, my take profit
also show you other ways to do this. Let's confirm here, and in this way, we already have an open position. Right now, we have an open position in Solana Perpetual, right? A perpetual contract on isolated margin with
20x leverage. Right now, we are earning 19 cents, right? 55 cents of a dollar, right? Remember, the Roy is proportional to your margin, not the size of your position. This is because we have a
This is because we have a position size of $150 but a margin of only $750, right? The margin ratio here is how close I am to my liquidation. If this reaches 100%, I am liquidated. My entry price is
I am liquidated. My entry price is $150, with the reference price being the current price and my liquidation price being $143. So, if Solana reaches $3, being $143. So, if Solana reaches $3, I will be liquidated in this operation.
Here you can change the leverage. But it won't change anything margin, but the size of your position, which is what definitely matters for the settlement price and also for your Roy, won't change. So
basically, this leverage change here won't serve any purpose. we can also set our target and our Stop here in TPSL. We can even configure some profit-taking, right? Stop loss, and
everything else, but I personally like to use the TPSL position where it So let's say I want to close here when it reaches 1610, it will tell me that I will gain 9 with 84, and on my loss here I will say that I will
close my operation. If it reaches 145, I will click OK, it will tell me that I will lose 51. I will confirm, and automatically I already have my stop and TP positions plotted here, right? Our take profit plotted, right?
can see another important point: if I click down here, there's a little arrow that I can use.  To see the chart correctly, I can see We can also add indicators, a series of factors that we
can track in this app layout. And by clicking here on the chart, in the corner, we have an option, a settings tab we can also add open orders and positions. And in this
way, we can see our operation within the chart, where we opened, where our stop loss is, and where our profit is. So it's also a very interesting way to track the operation. Going back to the position,
exact moment for some reason, without waiting to reach the target, just go to close, choose the number of contracts, the position you want to close, let's say 100%. It will ask you for confirmation, confirm, and
automatically our order is closed. However, you can also use a limit order. In this case, you will place an order below the entry price. Remember, a limit order only
works if you place it below the entry price for the purchase. So let's say it 's at $150 here, Solana, the limit order will only work.  If I place below this price, then I have to place 140, 145, 149, it doesn't matter, but it has to
be below the current price, right? If you place a limit order above the current price, that order will go to market, be very careful with that. So let's say here I want to buy Solana, but only if it reaches $10, right?
available capital, I'll open a long position here, it will ask me to confirm, right? And that's it. Notice that I don't have an open position, but I have an an open position, but I have an open order here in Solana, right? In fact,
that my order is plotted down here at 14, 140, right? In the case of a short position, let's cancel here. I can cancel the order, everything is correct. In the case of a short position, it's the same logic, right? In a
market order, you just put here how much you want to open the short position, it will ask you to confirm, and that's it, we already have a position here, right? Called in Solana, right? You can use the same thing here with the TP, everything is the same, right?
Position, everything is correct, right? And if you want to close, just come here and close.  Everything, and you already have a closed position, same thing, a limit order, right? Let's say I want to sell Solana if it reaches $170. So I can come here and place a
$170. So I can come here and place a sell order at $170, 100% of my capital, and open a short position. It will ask for confirmation, and that's it. Notice that I don't have an open position, but I have an open sell order on Solana if
it reaches 170. Remember, folks, again, in a limit order, in a sell operation, you can only sell above the current price. It's the opposite of a long order. In a long order, the limit order only works if it's below the current price. In a sell order, it's above
the current price. So, if you place a sell limit order below this current price, it will enter at market price. So be very careful, right Ghost? But I want to trade on a breakout, right? So, for example, I
want to buy Solana, but not at market price. I don't want to buy now; I only want to buy if it reaches, for example, 170. How do I do that? And in that case, you'll switch here to a market stop, and you'll put here,
for example, 170 as the stop price.  Define how much you want in this example here, 100% of the available capital, and let's open a long position. Notice that I don't have any open positions, but I
have an open Solana order that, if it reaches 170, so if you see a pivot breakout, some strategy like that, is a way for you to place a market order there, right? We can even look at
our chart and notice that at $170 we have a market order. The same thing works here for shorting, right? Let's cancel it here, so I'll leave it as a market stop. But I only want to sell if it goes past 140. Same situation. Define here
how much you want, open a short position, and that's it. I notice that it's market-bound, right? It's in the order book, our order here at $10. So if it reaches $10, it will sell at market. So notice that there are no
positions again. If you place this sell order with the price below the current limit price, it will enter at market. So the correct way to do this is here with a market stop, and basically...  Okay everyone, these are the
main functions you'll use to trade cryptocurrencies using the Binance app. I personally don't recommend using the app for market analysis, technical analysis, etc.,
but I know many of you don't have time, or are working, and the app can save you in some situations, but use it with great caution. I personally don't use Binance anymore, but I still
helped. If you liked this tutorial and it helped you in any way, I ask for a like and a subscription. And if you want to deepen your knowledge of trading even further, I invite you to become a member of this channel.
