Editorial Guidelines

To maintain neutrality and encyclopedic quality, editors contributing to articles in this category must adhere to the following guidelines:

1. Neutrality: All content must be presented factually, avoiding any language that suggests guaranteed returns, certainty of outcomes, or endorsement of specific trading platforms.
2. Verifiability: Claims regarding the effectiveness or mechanics of a risk management technique should be supported by reliable, external sources where appropriate, particularly when discussing quantitative models.
3. Clarity: Explanations must be accessible to readers who understand basic concepts of cryptocurrency and futures trading but may be new to advanced risk mitigation strategies. Technical terms should be clearly defined or linked to appropriate articles.
4. Focus on Risk: Articles should concentrate on the management of potential downside risk, rather than strategies focused solely on maximizing potential profit.
