I was in a very similar situation. When I first opened the Bybit interface, I was honestly a little confused. There are a lot of parameters, and it's easy to make a mistake. What helped me the most at the beginning was reading step-by-step guides while looking at the exchange interface. For example, iTrusty has a good
crypto futures trading guide that explains the basics, such as how to choose a trading pair, set leverage, and manage risk. I advise starting with small amounts and using no more than 5x to 10x leverage because futures can quickly liquidate a position when prices move sharply. On exchanges such as Bybit, traders can open positions with high leverage - sometimes up to 100x - but that is very risky.
