Why these values. They are set for safer first weeks, not for more profit: only the highest-rated signals, small positions and a close stop, so a new account trades less often and each losing trade costs little. Past results guarantee nothing. Once you know how the bot trades for you, /setMinStrength, /setStoploss and the other commands change any of them.
What the defaults put at risk, in money. Three positions of 5 USDT margin at 2x is 15 USDT of margin and 30 USDT of position value. If every one of them reached its 10% stop, the loss would be about 3 USDT, plus fees and slippage. Each repeat entry on a coin you already hold adds another 5 USDT. The free trial's limits (10 USDT a trade, 3 positions) leave these values as they are. On isolated margin a single position can never lose more than its own margin, even if its stop fails; on cross margin it can draw on the whole futures balance. At 5 USDT and 2x each order is worth 10 USDT, which is below Binance's minimum order on a few high-priced coins, so those entries are skipped: see Why does the bot say my position size is below the coin's minimum order?.
Accounts set up before these values keep the settings they started with, unless the member changed them: signals of strength 2 and up and a 30% stop from 11 October 2026; 25 USDT a trade, up to 10 positions and a 35% stop from 8 October 2026 (a 25% stop from 3 to 7 October); and before that 3x or 5x leverage on cross margin, 5 positions, every signal strength and no stop-loss. /summary shows yours.
The stop-loss is measured without leverage, so 10% means the price moved 10% against the entry. What a stop costs is that move times your leverage, as a share of the trade's margin: 10% at the starting 2x is 20% of the margin, and at 5x it would be 50%. /myStopLoss and /summary show this share for your own leverage. If you raise the leverage, the bot asks you to bring the stop inside the new liquidation distance first. Without a stop, a position is closed only by its target, by you, or by Binance liquidation, unless you set /setMaxHold (Tier 3) or /setDelistingClose, which close it at market; nothing closes it when the signal expires. See How does the stop-loss work? and Why was I liquidated?.
