How do you size your trades? Let's talk risk management – HaZ 1


Here is a fact that most people in this space do not want to hear: the majority of traders who lose money do not lose because they picked the wrong coins. They lose because they sized too large on the wrong trades. Position sizing is the most underrated skill in crypto trading — and it is the one that separates traders who last from those who do not. 👇


My personal rule at HaZ 1 is simple: I never risk more than 1–2% of my trading account on any single trade. That means if I have a $1,000 account and my stop-loss is 5% away from my entry, I calculate my position size so that hitting the stop only costs me $10–$20 — not $50 or $100. BTC dominance is at 58.4% right now, meaning capital is not rotating into alts yet. Best Hashtags In a market like this, where direction is unclear, and the Fear & Greed index sits at 37, I go even smaller — 0.5–1% per trade. Conservative sizing lets you stay in the game long enough to be right.


Meme coins get 0.5% maximum. Large-caps like BTC and ETH get up to 2%. Everything in between gets 1%. That is the HaZ 1 framework.


Let me know:


— What percentage of your account do you risk per trade?


— Do you size differently for $BTC versus memecoins?


— Have you ever blown a trade by sizing too large — and what did you learn from it?


Drop your thoughts below — let's learn from each other. Risk management is what separates traders who last from those who don't. This is not financial advice – HaZ 1.
