[#Futures Rule Number 6]
Dissolve Risk Over Time, Not All at Once

Impulse averaging down—buying more when the market drops—might feel clever, but if the trend continues against you, it guarantees liquidation. Discipline isn’t about reacting fast; it’s about managing exposure across time.

Instead of dumping all your cash into a falling trade, scale in small amounts over time or avoid chasing "bargains." This smooths out risk and avoids catastrophic blowups.

Always account for volatility in your risk plan—predefine your entry, stop-loss, and position size, and stick to it consistently. Let time be your ally, not your enemy.
