#BinanceABCs 10x leverage gets liquidated with only a 3% pullback? The real issue isn't leverage; it's that you haven't understood the rules

A few days ago, I saw a brother's trading record: he went all-in with 10,000 USDT on 10x long, and when the market only dropped 3%, his account was gone—he put in 9,500 USDT all at once, with no stop-loss set. Watching that made me uncomfortable.

Here's a big pitfall: many people think that full position can resist more decline, but it's actually the opposite. Using full position with the wrong method leads to the fastest death.

Let me give you a simple comparison to make it clear:
- 1,000 USDT principal, 900 USDT opened with 10x leverage → a 5% adverse move causes liquidation
- 1,000 USDT principal, 100 USDT opened with 10x leverage → a 50% adverse move causes liquidation

What's the difference? It's not the market; it's position discipline.

The reason I can survive in contracts until now is because of these three strict rules:

**First: No single trade exceeds 20% of total position**

For example, with 10,000 USDT principal, each trade maxes out at 2,000 USDT. If the direction is wrong, a 10% stop-loss only loses 200 USDT. The principal remains, the opportunity remains.

**Second: The maximum loss per trade is 3% of total position**

With 2,000 USDT in a trade, set the stop-loss to lose at most 300 USDT. Even if you lose three times in a row, you still have 9,100 USDT left. Your mindset won't collapse.

**Third: Only eat trend breakouts, say no to sideways markets**

Don't add positions impulsively when making profits; if emotions run high, close the position immediately. Sounds rigid? But this can save your life.

The core meaning of full position is actually to leave yourself a way out

I mentored a fan who used to blow up his account every month. After adopting this methodology, he went from 5,000 USDT to 30,000 USDT in three months. He later told me: "I used to think full position was a gambler's game. Now I understand, full position is actually to stay more stable."

In the crypto world, the game is never about who earns faster, but who survives longer. Instead of guessing market direction, it's better to optimize position management—slow down, and that's the fastest way.
