Leverage doesn't change your risk; the stop does. Liquidation is an isolated-margin estimate with 0.5% maintenance margin and no fees. Exchanges use tiered margin, so check theirs before you trade. Highest leverage that keeps the liquidation beyond this stop: 40×.

How to journal LTC trades
1.Log every LTC trade with its stop
Record entry, stop, exit and size for each Litecoin position. With the stop saved, every result becomes an R-multiple, so a 0.5% LTC scalp and a multi-day swing compare fairly.
2.Tag the setup and the session
Was it a breakout, a range fade or a funding squeeze? Tag it, and note whether you traded Asia, London or New York hours. After 30 LTC trades you can see which setups actually pay.
3.Net out fees and funding
LTC perpetuals charge funding every few hours. On a position held for days it can turn a winner flat, so the journal should show P&L after fees and funding, not just the price move.
4.Review the mistakes, not just the P&L
Mark trades where you moved the stop, sized up after a loss or chased a LTC candle. Those tags usually explain more of a bad month than the market does.
Connect a read-only key and Flowsense does all of this for you: Binance, Bybit, OKX or start with the setup guide.
FAQ
- What is the LTC funding rate right now?
- At the last update the LTC USDT perpetual funding rate was +0.0100% per 8h. Over the past 7 days it averaged +0.0066% per interval (about 7.2% a year if it held), and longs paid shorts in 90% of settlements.
- How do I calculate position size for a LTC futures trade?
- Divide the amount you are willing to lose by the distance from entry to stop. With a $10,000 account risking 1% ($100) and a stop 2% below entry, the position is $5,000 of notional, whatever the leverage. The calculator on this page does it with the current LTC price.
- Does leverage change my risk on LTC?
- No. The stop and position size set the risk. Leverage only sets how much margin is locked up and how close the liquidation price sits. Keep the liquidation price beyond your stop, or the exchange can close you before your stop does.
- How should I journal Litecoin trades?
- Save the entry, stop, exit and size for every LTC trade, tag the setup, and track results in R after fees and funding. Flowsense does this automatically from a read-only Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget or Hyperliquid key.
- Where does this LTC data come from?
- From the public Binance USDT-M futures API, with Bybit as a fallback. Prices, 24h change, the 7-day 1h chart and funding history refresh about once an hour. It is information, not financial advice.
