Do you set your position size by feel, or calculate it based on your stop-loss distance?
Definition: A common position-sizing method: Notional position value ≈ account funds × risk per trade ÷ stop-loss distance.
The logic behind it: The bigger the drawdown, the harder it is to recover. After losing 50%, your remaining funds have to double just to get back to where you started.
Market snapshot: $BTC is at 82574.01, down 0.68% over 24h.
There’s no shame in playing it safe. Staying in the game matters more than how much you make in a single trade.
