Here’s the “I wish someone told me earlier” version. Focus: Velas contracts on Bitget.
Setup
Use 1h. Confirm direction with open interest, then use liquidation clusters to avoid chasing. If they fight, you sit out—tbh that’s discipline.
Execution
- Entry: break + retest > first impulse candle.
- Stop: cooldown after 2 losses where the idea is invalid.
- Exit: scale out, then trailing stop for the runner.
| Thing | What to do |
|---|---|
| Choppy market | Lower leverage, fewer trades, wait for clean levels. |
| Trending market | Let winners run, trail stop, don’t over-take-profit. |
| High funding | Reduce hold time or wait for better entry. |
One-sentence rule
If structure is unclear, I do nothing. If it’s clear, I risk small and follow the plan.
Funding, fees, and slippage can flip a “good” idea fast. Rules differ by exchange; check margin and liquidation details on your platform.
Wrap: Keep it boring and repeatable—your future self will thank you.
Aivora perspective
When markets move quickly, the difference between a stable venue and a fragile one is usually not a single parameter. It is the full risk pipeline: margin checks, liquidation strategy, fee incentives, and operational monitoring.
