#特朗普加密货币政策新方向 $SOL How can contract trading beginners avoid liquidation? How to survive with a $1,000 starting fund

I see many people trying to turn things around in the futures market with just a few thousand yuan as capital, only to see their accounts go to zero in less than three days. Actually, playing futures with a small amount of capital isn't impossible—the key is not treating yourself like a gambler.

First, let's talk about how to allocate funds. If you only have $1,000, the dumbest move is to go all-in at once. The correct approach is to split it into 10 portions and only use $100 each time with 20x leverage. What about the remaining $900? Put it directly into a savings account to earn interest, and don't let it tempt you to add more to your position.

What should you do if you lose $100? Many people will frantically add to their position trying to recover—this is the fast track to liquidation. Calm down, close your trading app, and take a couple of days off to review where your judgment went wrong. Once your emotions are stable, continue trading slowly using the remaining money in $90 portions.

Futures trading is never about who has more guts, but about how stable your position management is. If you pick the wrong direction, even 10x leverage can get you liquidated instantly. You might win ten times in a row, but if you go all-in and lose once, you'll give back all your previous profits.

A few hard rules to remember:
Light positions are the foundation for survival—if your loss exceeds 2%, be alert; at 6%, you must close your position and take a break. Don't chase rallies; emotional trading is when accidents happen most easily. Only add to your position after a pullback has stabilized, not just because the candlestick chart is surging.

How to keep your profits? When your profit exceeds 200%, set a drawdown take-profit point, such as automatically closing your position if profits pull back by 30%. Also, set your breakeven point—at the very least, don't lose your principal.

For beginners, start with $30-50 to get a feel for it, using 20x leverage and a single stop loss of $20-30. Remember to withdraw profits—don't leave everything in your account and get overconfident. The same goes for deposits: add $500-1,000 in batches each time; dumping too much in at once makes it easy to lose control of your mindset.

One last thing: if you’re not in a good state, have consecutive losses, or your life sucks right now, stay away from futures. The market will always be there, but your principal won’t come back to life.
