# Going Long (betting the price will rise)

**Example:  If you believe ADA will increase from $0.40 to $0.60 after a major upgrade:**

* Instead of buying ADA with $100 directly, you use 5x leverage.
* You deposit $100 as collateral, borrow $400 from the pool, and open a $500 ADA position.
* If ADA rises 50%, your position becomes $750. After repaying the $400 loan + interest, you keep \~$350. Profit is 3.5x higher than just holding spot ADA.
* Use Case: Amplify upside when you have high conviction in bullish market moves.
