In contract trading, due to high market volatility and leverage that can amplify losses, risk management is a core strategy to safeguard funds and maintain stable operations.


Using Stop Loss & Take Profit

Stop Loss

  • Automatically closes the position when the price reaches a preset level to limit losses.

  • Example: If you open a long BTC position and the price falls to the stop loss level, the system automatically sells to close the position, preventing further loss.

Take Profit

  • Automatically closes the position when the price reaches a preset level to lock in profits.

  • Example: If you open a long BTC position and the price rises to the take profit level, the system automatically sells to close the position, securing profits.

Setting Tips

  • You can set stop loss/take profit based on a fixed price or percentage relative to the opening price.

  • For long-term positions, Trailing Stop can be used to follow price movements and lock in more profits.

Purpose

  • Helps investors manage risk during market volatility, prevent emotional trading, and ensure profits are realized.
