If you have $1000 for safe leverage under x10 for future trading and use fund around $600 to $700, you should left $300 for make separated liquidation price based on your open or short position.
Don’t you think using less than 5x leverage will be? I still find it risky when you use Above 5X leverage, to be at a saver side always maintain less than 5x leverage, and always have reserve, just enter your trade with like 50 percent of your entire wallet, make sure the remaining amounts is left in your wallet to extend the liquidation price when you are in a trade. But the first thing which you should know when trading future is always make sure you use low leverage, if you can maintain low leverage, then your chances of losing money is kind of low, but you shouldn’t be expecting high reward also.
Have consequence when lower leverage or safe with your future trading will earn small profitable
The reason why I notice some traders do involve in future trading is due to high reward, that’s why they are always using high leverage when trading futures, the reason why lots of traders easily lose money in future trading is because of the leverage with they are using, just few traders are always maintaining low leverage when trading futures.
