Every strategy has losing streaks. Risk per trade decides whether you survive them. It is the most important number in trading and the one beginners never set.
Every strategy has losing streaks. Risk per trade decides whether you survive them. It is the most important number in trading and the one beginners never set.
Risking 1 percent per trade means ten straight losses cost about 10 percent of the account, unpleasant but recoverable. Risking 10 percent per trade makes the same streak fatal.
Streaks of five to ten losses are normal for good strategies. Your risk number must assume they will happen, because they will.
Position size is calculated backwards from the stop: account size times risk percent, divided by stop distance. The stop defines the size, never the other way around.
If the calculated size feels too small to matter, the account is too small for that instrument, not a reason to widen risk.
When you copy a managed strategy, this arithmetic is done for you on every position, scaled to your balance.
That built in sizing is a large part of why copied accounts survive periods that wash solo beginners.
