Chapters
The presenter recommends having at least $100 in your spot wallet to start futures trading.
To start, click on 'Derivatives' in the main window and then select 'Futures' to open the trading interface.
Transfer no more than 20% of your total balance to the futures wallet to limit potential losses.
Do not place more than 30% of your balance on any single order to manage risk.

Isolated margin limits risk to the amount in the order; cross margin uses the entire balance, which is riskier.

Use a stop market order to limit losses. Set it at a price that caps your loss at around 20%.
Remember: use 20% of balance for futures, 30% per order, and always use stop orders to protect your capital.

[00:01] Alexey, we are on channel 40 plus, and of course we will talk about crypto. Today we will talk about money in the video, Haben UNS, and about the most extreme tool for earning money, which is futures trading. Let's say it's one of the most extreme. What
[00:14] else is margin trading? Today, our program is about futures trading, how to trade without losing all your money, then do it right. Let's go. So, where do we start? First, we start, naturally, we should have some money on our balance.
[00:27] I recommend having at least $100 on our balance so that we can somehow trade something. Why $100? I'll explain everything now. So, what do we do? While in the main window, we click on derivatives, and
[00:41] this is not clear, and again we select futures. This is the first thing we go to, this is the trading window that opens, then you have the opportunity to choose here. Here you bring up a
[00:56] coin selection window. In my case, let's say For example, this will be through, yes, let's say I decided that this would be, for example, well, let's not take some let's not take some understandable coin, I'll give ether, we take ether, here
[01:10] we have a pair of ether, it's moving and quarterly ether, U with dt, perpetual ether, quarterly into perpetual, we take this perpetual, in our case, here they open, ether sdt, perpetual, what do we do next, then
[01:26] we get the following picture: here you have price tags, here you have a chart, if you know how to analyze it, that's great, if you don't know how to analyze it, that's not very good, but you can experiment, and so
[01:40] $100, you should have in the spot wallet on the balance of this wallet, from the balance of the 5 wallet, you need to transfer no more than 20 percent of your total balance to the balance of the futures wallet, because with a probability of, well,
[01:57] 90 percent, most likely, in sitting, we sit, the speakers, you will transfer the first time, you will most likely speakers, you will transfer the first time, you will most likely so you don't do this, but the likelihood is very high that you will most likely
[02:09] percent of the total balance, so that it does n't hit your wallet globally, that is, a little bit, 10 percent is better. Well, if you really want
[02:21] to charge up to 20 percent, let's say 20, then you find in this this button, you see here, click and here you have a transfer, an exchange transfer from a port wallet to a futures wallet, you select
[02:37] here, you will see what is available here, what I told you about in the previous video, in fact, for futures, you can choose this way, the amount you can choose this way, the amount you want to transfer, or you
[02:50] just put the amount you want, that is, in my case, 10 percent, yes, this is from one hundred eighty-three dollars, this is 18 dollars, but let's take 20. 20 dollars, as you saw, up to 50 dollars were in the wallet, click confirm
[03:04] all the money has arrived to you about this account, here you can already trade further What you need to decide beyond the amount you placed, I don't recommend placing more than 30 percent of your balance on
[03:19] any order. So, take a figure like this, up to 30 percent. You do n't need more. In our case, let 's say we have this chart: we have Ether, so let's say we take and do the
[03:33] following operation: we have a limit, there's a market, and there's a stop. You see these if you choose market, you buy at the current price. If you choose limit, you can set the price you want to buy at,
[03:47] and you can buy long, which is for growth, or you can buy short, which is an attack. OK, prices. So, if you buy long on the green chart, let's say, and play as it grows. As a result, you kind of earn money, then you end up with a
[04:03] plus. If you buy short, the chart grows, which means you're working in the minus. Your money is debited from your balance of 100. Now I'll show you how it happens. You have a market. Pay attention. There's one reduction here. The position is checked. You
[04:16] when the checkmarks are on. No, here you see how much you can buy with your balance, maximum. In our case, let it be as I told you, 30. 30 percent maximum, that is, no more than 30. So, we set it to 30 percent. I
[04:31] think that most likely this will increase. This will be a price increase, and accordingly, what we do is we make a purchase, the quantity is 30 percent of this price, and this amount will be, and so, we click the button, the price you see
[04:45] below jumps, we click the price, buy, buy the order is created, and now you have it fixed, and the price at which we bought it is fixed, and now you have this order, like this, this is x 2 x 20. I recommend
[05:00] paying attention to this because with x20 leverage you can fly into the minus, so we naturally close this position immediately. We close it west, yes, we lost a little there, a couple of kopecks were scary, so we move here
[05:14] initially, which means, firstly, to be ideally isolated trading, but you won’t earn much here. I trade cross-trading, if it’s isolated, then you only risk With the money you have in your order, literally, if you cross this, you
[05:26] roughly speaking spend the money you still have on your balance. Here we have on your balance. Here we choose, most likely, somewhere like this, choose, most likely, somewhere like this, or better yet, choose something like this. x5 leverage,
[05:39] this means that the bet you place, you will roughly speaking operate with money five times larger, approximately virtually. In our case, there is a market. According to the layout, at the moment, this is the price we take, 30
[05:53] percent, as we intended. 30 percent, and the amount of ether that will be bought, we click buy, everything belongs. Now, look, we have an order created, and now if the price goes up, it
[06:09] will go plus. You see, here there is a plus, and here there is also a plus. I zoom in, it is added. If there is a minus here, there is also a minus, it is also removed. When the book decreases, you see it is already 4950 149 49
[06:24] because it went minus. As soon as the price falls, your figure here you have nothing left on your balance, if you completely spend all the bet, then you will see this on liquidation. Here is the price. Now markings 13
[06:40] receipt 836 if you have very little money here, it seems there are none that you entered, what is the liquidation price, this means your order will simply burn out if the money goes nowhere, you spend it, your task is to
[06:52] earn it, they spend it to zero, so please control these things, control this leverage rate, control the price at which you entered, remove what you want to trade for growth or for an attack, if an attack,
[07:05] accordingly, it is profitable that the rate fell if people, accordingly, it is profitable for you that the rate rises and pay attention at this very moment, after that, if you still go to bed, I recommend you do this or go somewhere
[07:18] for a long time, I recommend you set a limit on the price drop and if your control it, you can simply drain your balance completely, so what you need to do is set a non-linear lower limit so that at
[07:31] this moment you completely sell all the money even with a loss, but at least part of it returns so that you do not lose everything because it is In this case, people simply lose all their money. What you need to do is go to the park. There
[07:43] options: trailing stop, only placement. Stop market stop limit. Stop limit is not necessary. I choose the park because after that you choose the price at which you will do it. Not the marking price, exactly the
[07:56] last price, the price at which you appeared. Naturally, we set the be this price of two and a half thousand. Two and a half thousand is which we bought it by approximately 20 percent. 20 percent is enough, that is, well,
[08:13] to feel that this is unpleasant, but at the same time, in order not to lose a lot, this is normal. I think next we click on reducing the position and here we reducing the position and here we indicate the amount that we have on the
[08:26] That is, in our case, 0.00. This is the amount you see that we bought 0.00. 41 ether. All this will be completely sold. We click sell short. Now we see a stop order, it glows red, that is, we have a
[08:41] green price here for buying long and there is a stop order here in open orders. It We have a stop market about the sale amount, well, the sale amount and the amount at which we placed where and a half everything now if our price
[08:56] goes below the price of two and a half thousand dollars, we will in any case fix our minus but we will not lose all the money, we will lose only 20 percent of the balance and I think that this is acceptable and this is normal, well, it’s not really critical, at
[09:09] least they will teach you how to work now further, the more there is, look, while we were talking, you see 15 cents we have already earned on this operation, that is, if we are satisfied with 15 cents, 16 cents are already there and
[09:22] accordingly we close the order, we can close the vodka of all positions, you can simply place a limit order and make a sale. This means that if our leverage was higher, accordingly, we would earn more. If the leverage was higher, then we
[09:35] so pay attention to the important details when it is in mushrooms and The first is 20 percent of the total balance, then we have wallets no more, accordingly, for any bet you cost no more than 30 percent because it is
[09:49] money that will allow you to go into the minus, add, and so on. That is, in this particular trading, then I showed you how to replenish. Next, it is very important to use a stop market. Be sure to place orders at a minus so that
[10:02] hour, two, five, or ten hours away from your computer, you simply lose your $10-20, this is not critical. When you have $1,000, this is a very big small minus than to lose absolutely everything. Next, it is very
[10:19] everything. Next, it is very
[10:35] that you at least roughly understand how it moves. Here you can choose any coin. Place any of the orders. Do not place more than two orders. Here, in significant trading, it is not necessary because this is your
[10:49] residual balance, it affects the liquidation price. The liquidation price When you're left without liquidation price When you're left without money, and when they say they're cutting down a roll of gears, cutting down toilets, it means that at that moment there's a market crash in one
[11:01] direction and people are simply liquidating, orders are liquidated, a it's simply written off. So, let's not be like Here's a video. If I didn't tell you anything, write questions in the comments below.
