Real Trading Scenarios

πŸ§ͺ Trade Scenario: Long SUI at $2.25

Let’s walk through a practical example using perpetual futures and proper risk management.

πŸ“Š Trade Setup

β€’ Asset: SUI

β€’ Current Price: $2.25

β€’ Trade Direction: Long (expecting price to rise)

β€’ Account Capital: $2,000

β€’ Risk Per Trade: 2% = $40

β€’ Leverage Used: 5x

πŸ› οΈ Trade Details

Component
Value

Entry Price

$2.25

Target Price

$2.55

Stop-Loss Price

$2.17

Price Risk

$0.08 per coin

Position Size

$40 Γ· $0.08 = 500 SUI

Notional Value

500 Γ— $2.25 = $1,125

Leverage Applied

5x β†’ Only $225 margin needed

πŸ“ˆ Risk/Reward Breakdown

β€’ Risk: $0.08 downside Γ— 500 SUI = $40

β€’ Reward: $0.30 upside Γ— 500 SUI = $150

β€’ Risk/Reward Ratio: 1 : 3.75

πŸ“Œ This is a high-conviction trade with a clearly defined stop-loss and a favorable R:R ratio.


βœ… Trade Logic

β€’ You’re risking 2% of your capital to potentially gain 7.5%.

β€’ With 5x leverage, you’re maximizing efficiency without being overexposed.

β€’ If SUI drops to $2.17, the trade is auto-stopped to prevent larger losses.

β€’ If it hits $2.55, you secure a strong profit.


πŸ”’ Risk Management in Action

Even if you take 5 trades like this and only win 2 out of 5:

β€’ Losses: 3 Γ— $40 = $120

β€’ Wins: 2 Γ— $150 = $300

β€’ Net Profit: $180
