Rule 01
Limit Exposure
Never risk more than 5% of your portfolio across all open trades. If you are running 3 positions, that is about 1.6% per trade. Blow all three stops at once and you are still only down 5%.
Rule 02
Think Loss First
Before you think about gains, calculate what you stand to lose. Our trades are structured at a minimum 1:2 R:R. That means you make $2 for every $1 at risk. Win 50% and you are still green.
Rule 03
Cut Losers Fast
Don't sit in red positions hoping they turn. If it looks wrong, close early and move on. Free up that capital for the next clean setup.
Rule 04
Always Use Stops
Stop-loss is not optional. Base it on structure — levels, zones, fibs — never on emotion. Stops keep you alive.
Rule 05
Never Go All-In
One trade should never make or break you. Spread across assets so one mistake does not wreck the whole account.
Rule 06
Keep Leverage Low
If you are new, stay around 5x. High leverage is how beginners get liquidated fast. Build experience before sizing up.
Rule 07
Review and Adjust
Your strategy is not static. Keep reviewing what is working and what is not. Adjust with the market.

The Math That Matters

Risk $1, aim to make at least $2. Lose 5 trades and you are down $5. Win 5 trades and you are up $10. Net result is +$5 profit. That is the math edge that keeps you in the game even through losing streaks.

Protecting capital comes before chasing profits. Stay disciplined, cut losses, and respect risk. That is how you survive long enough to win big.

Most traders who blow up their accounts do not lose because of bad analysis. They lose because they sized too big on one trade, held a loser too long, or used leverage that left no room for the market to breathe. The setup can be correct and the trade can still kill you if the risk is wrong.

This framework is not complicated. It is disciplined. The difference is in the execution.
