⚠️ Risk Management Rule
Professional traders never risk more than 1-2% of their account on a single trade. This ensures survival through losing streaks.
Position Size Formula
Lots = (Account × Risk%) ÷ (SL × Pip Value)
Example Calculation
| Account | $10,000 |
| Risk (2%) | $200 |
| Stop Loss | 50 pips |
| Pip Value | $10/pip |
| Lot Size | 0.40 lots |
💡 Pro Tip
Set your stop loss based on technical analysis (support/resistance), then calculate your position size. Never adjust your stop loss to fit a predetermined position size.
