Perps Risk Management Strategy

When to Use

  • •Opening any leveraged position
  • •Deciding on position size
  • •Setting stop-loss levels
  • •Managing multiple open positions

Core Risk Rules

1. Leverage Limits

  • •Max leverage: 5x for majors (BTC, ETH, SOL)
  • •Max leverage: 3x for altcoins
  • •Never: Use max available leverage regardless of confidence
  • •Exception: 1x "leverage" is just spot with funding exposure

2. Position Sizing

  • •Single position max: 20% of perps balance
  • •Total exposure max: 60% of perps balance
  • •Max concurrent positions: 3
  • •Scale in: Open 50% initially, add on confirmation

3. Entry Criteria

  • •Funding rate direction aligns with trade (negative = long, positive = short)
  • •Volume > $10M in last 24h
  • •Open interest not at extreme levels
  • •Clear technical setup or catalyst

Funding Rate Strategies

Long Bias (Negative Funding)

  • •Funding < -0.01% per 8h = strong long signal
  • •You get PAID to hold longs
  • •Best for range-bound markets

Short Bias (Positive Funding)

  • •Funding > 0.05% per 8h = crowded long
  • •Market vulnerable to liquidation cascade
  • •Consider contrarian short with tight stop

Neutral (Funding ~0)

  • •No funding edge either way
  • •Rely on directional conviction only

Position Management

Stop Loss Rules

  • •BTC/ETH: 3-5% from entry
  • •Altcoins: 5-8% from entry
  • •Memes: 10-15% or don't trade

Take Profit Rules

  • •Scale out at 1:1 risk/reward (50% of position)
  • •Move stop to break-even
  • •Let remainder run with trailing stop

Liquidation Awareness

  • •Know exact liquidation price BEFORE entering
  • •Never let position get within 20% of liquidation
  • •Reduce size if margin ratio drops below 50%

Warning Signs

Don't Trade When

  • •Funding rate is extreme (>0.1% or <-0.1% per 8h)
  • •Open interest at all-time highs
  • •Major news event imminent
  • •Market in rapid directional move (chase = death)

Exit Immediately If

  • •Position moves against you 50% of stop distance on entry candle
  • •Funding rate flips aggressively against your position
  • •Liquidations cascading in your direction

Checklist Before Opening Position

  • • Leverage <= 5x (majors) or 3x (alts)
  • • Size <= 20% of balance
  • • Know exact liquidation price
  • • Stop loss set (in system or mental)
  • • Funding rate favorable or neutral
  • • Not chasing momentum
  • • < 3 open positions total
