5x β Only $225 margin needed
π 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
π This is a high-conviction trade with a clearly defined stop-loss and a favorable R:R ratio.
β Trade Logic
β’ Youβre risking 2% of your capital to potentially gain 7.5%.
β’ With 5x leverage, youβre 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.
π 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
π‘ The math works in your favor when risk is controlled and reward is maximized.
