🧵 People say #liquidation is the inevitable end of futures #trading because it goes against human nature. When was the last time you saw a gambler quit while ahead? To consistently profit from futures trading, you must overcome human nature with discipline.


1/ Think of #futures trading like buying a lottery ticket - you spend $2 for a chance at $5M. If you lose, you move on. No one smashes up the store over $2. Never trade with your full account - use isolated margin where your liquidation point is your stop loss.


2/ Never hold losing positions, even if your analysis proves right eventually. You can be right 99 times, but one wrong trade can wipe you out. If you hit your stop loss, it means your entry was wrong. Futures trading requires perfect timing and patience to turn small positions into big wins.
