🥇 MONEY MANAGEMENT BASICS FOR TRADERS

After years of trading crypto and forex, one thing I’ve learned is this: most traders don’t lose because they can’t analyze the market, they lose because they can’t manage risk.

You can have the best setup in the world and still blow an account if your money management is poor.

1️⃣ Think in percentages, not dollars
Your account size doesn’t matter as much as the percentage you’re risking. Keep risk small and consistent, ideally around 1–2% per trade.

2️⃣ Know your exit before you enter
Every proper trade needs an entry, invalidation/stop loss and target. Entering without knowing where you’re wrong turns trading into gambling.

3️⃣ Never revenge trade
After a loss, don’t increase your position trying to recover quickly. I’ve seen this destroy more accounts than bad analysis. Take the loss, reset and trade the next setup normally.

4️⃣ Judge yourself over a series of trades
One win proves nothing. One loss proves nothing. Your edge becomes clear over many trades executed with discipline.

Protecting capital comes first. Opportunities will always return, but only if you still have capital to trade them. 📊
