All you big shots out there—are you really betting your lives? With 1,000U, going all-in on a trade is pointless, even if you get the direction right. Many people get wiped out as soon as they try futures. The problem isn’t the market—it’s taking on too large a position.
With an oversized position, one move against you and you’re out. Even if you got the direction right, you can’t withstand the pullback along the way. By the time the market moves your way, you’re already gone.
Before trading futures, figure out how much you can afford to lose. Risk 2% of your total capital per trade, then work backward from your stop-loss to determine your position size: the farther away the stop, the smaller the position; the closer the stop, the larger it can be. Let profits run when you’re right, and take a small loss when you’re wrong. There’ll be plenty of opportunities later.
Bet big on one call, and even if you’ve won ten or twenty times before, one loss you can’t withstand can wipe it all away. Those who survive in the long run may not be the most accurate, but they always keep positions small, use stop-losses, and leave their account room to recover.
Keeping your position small doesn’t mean earning slowly—it means staying in the game longer.
