-== Overview of Risk Management in Crypto Futures Trading ==

 [[Portal:Crypto_futures|Back to portal]]
-Risk management in the context of [[Cryptocurrency futures trading]] involves the strategies and tools employed by traders to limit potential losses on their positions. Futures contracts derive their value from an underlying asset, such as a specific cryptocurrency, and allow traders to speculate on future price movements without directly holding the asset. Effective risk management is crucial due to the high volatility inherent in cryptocurrency markets.
+This category is dedicated to articles concerning '''risk management''' practices within the context of crypto futures trading. The goal is to provide neutral, factual, and educational resources for users seeking to understand and mitigate potential losses associated with leveraged trading of digital assets.
-== Key Concepts in Crypto Futures Risk Management ==
+== Scope and Content Guidelines ==
-Several core concepts underpin the management of risk in this domain:
+Articles categorized here should focus strictly on methodologies, tools, and concepts related to controlling or limiting exposure to adverse price movements in cryptocurrency futures markets.
-=== Position Sizing ===
+Acceptable topics include, but are not limited to:
-Position sizing refers to determining the appropriate amount of capital to allocate to a single trade. A common principle is to risk only a small percentage (often cited as 1% to 2%) of the total trading capital on any one trade. This prevents a few losing trades from significantly depleting the account balance.
+* Position sizing strategies.
+* The mechanics and application of stop-loss orders.
+* Concepts related to margin requirements and maintenance margin.
+* Understanding and calculating Value at Risk (VaR) in a crypto context.
+* Hedging techniques using futures contracts.
+* The role of diversification in portfolio risk management.
-=== Stop-Loss Orders ===
+== Editorial Standards ==
-A [[Stop-loss order]] is an order placed with a broker to automatically close a position when the asset's price reaches a specified level. This mechanism is designed to cap potential losses if the market moves against the trader's prediction.
+All content within this category must adhere to the following standards:
-=== Leverage Management ===
+=== Neutrality and Objectivity ===
-Futures trading often involves [[Leverage (finance)|leverage]], which magnifies both potential profits and potential losses. While leverage can increase returns, excessive leverage significantly increases the risk of [[Liquidation (finance)|liquidation]], where the exchange automatically closes the position due to insufficient margin. Prudent risk management requires carefully calibrating the level of leverage used relative to the trader's risk tolerance and market conditions.
+Articles must maintain a strictly '''neutral point of view'''. Avoid language that suggests guaranteed outcomes, promotes specific trading platforms, or encourages excessive risk-taking. Discussions of risk management tools should be purely descriptive of their function and limitations.
-=== Margin Requirements ===
+=== Factual Accuracy ===
-Margin is the collateral required to open and maintain a leveraged futures position. Understanding the difference between initial margin (required to open the trade) and maintenance margin (the minimum required to keep the trade open) is essential for avoiding forced liquidation.
+All claims regarding mathematical formulas, market mechanics, or regulatory frameworks must be accurate and verifiable. Where applicable, rely on established financial principles adapted for the cryptocurrency market.
-== Regulatory and Platform Risk ==
+=== Beginner Friendliness ===
-Beyond market volatility, traders must also account for risks associated with the trading platform itself. These include:
+Content should be structured to be accessible to users new to futures trading. Complex concepts must be clearly defined and explained before being applied to practical examples. Use clear, unambiguous terminology.
-*   **Counterparty Risk:** The risk that the exchange or clearinghouse may default on its obligations.
-*   **Technical Risk:** The possibility of system failures, outages, or connectivity issues during periods of high volatility, which could prevent timely order execution or adjustment of risk parameters. <ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.cftc.gov/MarketReports/FuturesReports/index.htm |publisher=Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) |access-date=2024-05-15}}</ref>

+This category is for educational purposes only. Do not include links, endorsements, or discussions that function as marketing for any specific trading service, software, or trading signal provider.
-*   **Neutrality:** All content must be presented factually. Avoid language that suggests guaranteed outcomes, promotes specific trading strategies as universally superior, or endorses particular exchanges or financial products.
+== Related Categories ==
-*   **Clarity and Accessibility:** Content should be written clearly, assuming a reader who has a basic understanding of financial markets but may be new to futures trading. Complex terminology must be defined or linked to appropriate explanatory pages.
+* [[Category:Crypto Futures Trading Mechanics]]
-*   **Verifiability:** Claims regarding market behavior, historical performance, or regulatory frameworks must be supported by reliable, external citations where appropriate. Internal wiki links are encouraged for defining terms, but external references are required for factual assertions about the external environment.
+* [[Category:Leverage and Margin]]
-*   **Focus on Mechanism:** Descriptions should focus on *how* risk management tools function (e.g., how a stop-loss order executes) rather than *when* to use them for profit maximization.
