Risk Management
Position sizing, risk of ruin, risk-reward, drawdown science, recovery maths, correlation, rules, psychology and journaling.
Lessons
- 1 Position sizing that survives a stop-out
Turn a percentage risk into a lot size on four instrument types, and round it down the way a broker forces you to.
- 2 Risk of ruin and why 0.5 to 1%
Streak probability at a real win rate, and how fast a streak eats a daily or max limit.
- 3 Risk-reward, but only with expectancy
Expectancy arithmetic, break-even win rates at four ratios, and why a ratio alone is empty.
- 4 Drawdown science, step by step
Daily versus max, static versus trailing, balance versus equity, and an exact trailing breach path.
- 5 Recovery maths and the daily stop
Why a 10% loss needs an 11% gain, the three losses rule, and how to close the day.
- 6 Correlation: five positions, two bets
Correlated pairs stack risk, total open risk caps, and news stacking.
- 7 Consistency rules and minimum days
Best day as a share of profit, minimum trading days, and why one big day blocks a payout.
- 8 Psychology with circuit breakers
Tilt, revenge trading, overtrading after a win, and mechanical breakers that beat willpower.
- 9 The journal that actually improves you
What to log per trade, a weekly review routine, and the metrics that matter.
