[ RISK MANAGEMENT ]
Capital Protection Comes Before Returns
We teach position sizing and capital protection before we ever teach entries — because surviving a losing streak matters more than any single winning trade.
What We Cover
The Fundamentals We Teach In Every Session
Stop Loss
A stop loss is decided before a trade is placed, not after. Every setup we share includes one, so the maximum acceptable loss is known in advance — not discovered in the moment.
Position Sizing
How much capital to put behind a single trade depends on your own capital, risk tolerance and trading plan. We share frameworks for thinking about it — the exact number is yours to decide.
Risk Per Trade
Risking a small, consistent share of capital on any one trade is one of the simplest ways to survive a losing streak. What counts as "small" differs for every trader — there's no single percentage that fits everyone.
Capital Protection
Protecting capital comes before chasing returns. A trader who avoids large losses stays in the game long enough to let a sound, repeatable process compound over time.
Avoiding Revenge Trading
Increasing size or frequency to "win back" a loss is one of the fastest ways to turn one loss into several. Recognising the urge in the moment is the first step to avoiding it.
Avoiding Overtrading
Not every market movement is a trade. Taking fewer, better-reasoned setups beats acting on every signal that appears — quality over frequency.
Our Process
Risk Is Managed Before, During And After
BEFORE
Define The Risk
Stop loss and position size are decided before the trade is placed — never adjusted in hindsight.
DURING
Follow The Plan
No moving the stop loss further away, no revenge trades, no adding size to "make it back" mid-trade.
AFTER
Review Honestly
Every closed setup — win, loss or breakeven — is logged in our Trade Journal and reviewed openly.
We Don't Prescribe A Fixed "Risk %" For Everyone
You'll sometimes see trading content online recommend a single fixed number — "risk 2% per trade," "risk 5% per trade." We don't put a number like that on this website. Appropriate position sizing depends on your own capital, financial circumstances and risk tolerance, and is something to work out for yourself — ideally with the frameworks we share in our sessions, and with a qualified financial professional where needed.
