📉💸 I blew $600 on futures. Position sizing separates survivors from blown accounts. Learn from my mistake.
Rule: Never risk over 1-2% of capital per trade. For $1000, that's $10-$20 max.
Example: Long BTC @ $60,000, Stop $59,500 ($500/BTC risk).
Position size: Max Risk ($10) / Risk per Unit ($500) = 0.02 BTC. Trade 0.02 BTC.
Why it saves you: 1% risk needs 100 *consecutive* losses to zero. This buys crucial learning time. One leveraged futures trade can instantly wipe you out otherwise.
Make this your daily pre-trade habit. Stay in the game.
