No hype—just the parts that actually matter. Focus: LINK contracts on Binance.
Setup
Use 4h. Confirm direction with RSI(14), then use order-book imbalance to avoid chasing. If they fight, you sit out—a bit that’s discipline.
Execution
- Entry: break + retest > first impulse candle.
- Stop: trailing stop where the idea is invalid.
- Exit: scale out, then scale out in 2-3 parts for the runner.
What to log
- Entry reason (one sentence)
- Stop placement + why
- Fees + funding paid
- Emotion (calm / rushed / tilted)
- Lesson
Insight: Common mistake: chasing the first spike instead of waiting for a retest. Fix it by slowing down and sizing smaller.
| 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. |
Educational only, not financial advice. Leverage is risky—use money you can afford to lose.
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.
If you trade perps
Track funding and realized volatility together. Funding tends to amplify crowded positioning.
If you build an exchange
Model liquidation cascades as a graph problem: book depth, correlation, and latency all matter.
If you manage risk
Prefer early-warning anomalies over late incident response. Drift is a signal, not noise.
Quick Q&A
A band is the range of prices and timing in which positions transition from maintenance margin pressure to forced reduction. Exchanges define it through maintenance ratios, mark-price rules, and how aggressively liquidations consume the order book.
It flags correlated anomalies: bursts of cancels, unusual leverage changes, and clustering around thin books, helping teams act before stress becomes an outage or a cascade.
