đš One thing Iâve learned from crypto: being right isnât enough.
You can predict the direction correctly and still lose money if your risk management is poor.
Before entering a trade, I ask:
đŻ Where is my entry?
đ Where is my invalidation?
đ° How much am I willing to lose?
đ Is the potential reward worth the risk?
đ« Am I tradingâor chasing FOMO?
đ Position-size formula:
Position Size = Amount Iâm willing to lose Ă· (Entry Price â Stop/Invalidation Price)
Example:
If Iâm willing to risk $10, enter at $100, and my invalidation is $95:
$10 Ă· ($100 â $95) = 2 units
If the invalidation is hit, the planned loss is approximately $10, before fees and slippage.
The key idea: decide the acceptable loss first, then calculate the position size. Donât choose a position size first and hope the risk works out.
