Risk Management Rules Every Trader Should Follow
Protect your capital with simple rules for position size, stop loss, and emotional discipline.
Risk management is where many traders improve quickly because it turns emotions into structure. If you know how much you are willing to lose on a trade, you can make better decisions and avoid revenge trading.
Position Sizing
Use position sizes that fit your account size and your risk appetite. A common approach is to risk only a small percentage of your portfolio on any single trade.
Stop Loss Discipline
Stop losses are not signs of weakness. They are a tool that helps you preserve capital and stay in the game when the market moves against you.
