The Two Types of Risk Management PlanHello traders, 1) Fixed Risk Calculates position size for next trade as a percentage of account depend on how much risk you willing to take every time every trade you taking you need to use fixed risk for every trade like for example 1% risk per trade so in this type of risk management plan we should require 100 losing trades in a row to blowing out our account a lot of people just using this simple method and this is very easy and understandable. 2) Cutting the Risk : In this method cutting the risk we just normally trade 1% risk per trade but if we lose that trade so we just cut the risk to half for example if i trade with 1% risk and i lose so now the next second trade which i am taking i will be using 0.5% risk in that trade if i lose then i will be just keep using the same risk 0.5% some traders are are keep reducing the risk size like they come all the way to to 0.25% maybe they work for it but in our scenario if we keep losing we will be not reducing more than 0.5% risk per trade and when win comes then after our winning trade we will be back to the normal risk which is 1% risk per trade and keep trading with 1% risk per trade so short summary is if we lose cut the risk to half if we when if we win back to the normal risk if we win again stay with same normal risk but if lose then reduce the risk to half. The reason behind that is in the fixed risk you have 100 traders to blowing out your account means 100 chances but in cutting the risk now we just calculate if we lose 100 trades in a row like fixed risk we would not blow out our account,, let's say we take our first trade and we lose now we are in -1% then another trade we will be taking with 0.5% per trade risk so here is 0.5% × 100 trades = 50 means if we continue to lose in a row after 100 trades we will be facing -50 draw down, so cutting the risk to half after lose trade is the safest method who wants to play safe and more chances to survive in the market. I wish you good luck and good trading. If you like the post, support my work with like comments and share thanks!

⚠️ Risk:Reward & Win-Rate CheatsheetThe reward to risk ratio (RRR, or reward risk ratio) is maybe the most important metric in trading and a trader who understands the RRR can improve his chances of becoming profitable. Basically, the reward risk ratio measures the distance from your entry to your stop loss and your take profit order and then compares the two distances. Traders who understand this connection can quickly see that you neither need an extremely high winrate nor a large reward:risk ratio to make money as a trader. As long as your reward:risk ratio and your historical winrate match, your trading will provide a positive expectancy. 🔷 Calculating the RRR Let’s say the distance between your entry and stop loss is 50 points and the distance between the entry and your take profit is 100 points . Then the reward risk ratio is 2:1 because 100/50 = 2. Reward Risk Ratio Formula RRR = (Take Profit – Entry ) / (Entry – Stop loss) 🔷 Minimum Winrate When you know the reward:risk ratio for your trade, you can easily calculate the minimum required winrate (see formula below). Why is this important? Because if you take trades that have a small RRR you will lose money over the long term, even if you think you find good trades. Minimum Winrate Formula Minimum Winrate = 1 / (1 + Reward:Risk) 👤 @AlgoBuddy 📅 Daily Ideas about market update, psychology & indicators ❤️ If you appreciate our work, please like, comment and follow ❤️

Bitcoin Swing perspectiveHello guys. Hope you all have good time. Today im going to share you my opinion about BTC in 4H timeframe. As you can see in my chart the price consolidate around a strong longterm Trendline for about 10 days and wait for FED decision about Rate hikes and Inflation Data. I think the economic information are stable for now and Price action do the best thing! So when the price try to break this trendline , Sellers come in strongly and move price down till 27000 level. In my view price cant break this line and 29000 level for this time and the price will down to 24000 level and after a rest there , it again start to increase in hope of reaching 30000 level. Its a good time for BLSH(Buy Low Sell High) until the price break the triangle and move in a direction. I hope you enjoy my view. PLEASE dont forget to set an appropriate StopLoss and manage your Risk , Because Nobody Knows about 1 second later and these views are all possibilities. In another word ,We Trade Possibilities Not Realities. Share me your opinion and TEACH me something new. Love you all

Should I stay or should I go?Three factors for good trade management Knowing when to make your move is key to being a successful and profitable trader. Here are three things you need to handle to keep on track: 1. Know the probability of the trade Make sure you know whether your trade is low or high probability and whether it’s against the trend or with it. If a trader goes long in a short market it’s a low-probability trade so more than likely it is going to end up in a losing trade. If you have a high-probability trade that failed, the market likely wants to change direction. If you have a high-probability trade that you don’t make a lot of points on, it means the market is slowing down or reversing. Sometimes low-probability trades also bring in points. Lower probability trades are against the prevailing trend, so taking a trade to the opposite side becomes preferable and may end up being a high-probability trade. That is because the trends start to change from the lower time frames to the higher timeframes. But you have to keep an eye on the higher ones especially as it might be a retracement on a higher-level timeframe (typically a 5 or 15 minute timeframe). 2. Know your rules for risk Be very clear how much money you want to allocate to a trade. Is your rule that you only ever risk half a percent per position or a maximum of 6% of your portfolio on any one trade? Having this clear boundary means that if you lose a few percent it doesn’t make a material difference to your account, your mindset and your wellbeing. Remember that your risk management will improve over time. Never get put off by the occasional trade that goes against you. If it doesn’t work out, look at your trading plan and see where there is something that could be changed. 3. Practice your strategy and approach Believe in your system and stick to it and your trading plan strictly, even if it looks like the market is going against you. Of course not all trades will be successful - with any business you have profits and losses. As long as the profits are more than the losses it’s ok. It’s about practice too, which includes practicing the skill of not doing anything for a few hours until you see a setup that meets your criteria. You never want to be making involuntary or emotional moves.

#gameplan P3N Low-Risk Setup:Risk management is very crucial when you trade. Here is one of my mostly applied strategies for risk management. It's useful for people who trade in a very volatile market or fade. This method aims to limit the loss to zero by taking profit when reaching 1R. It's with less profit than expectation, but lower the risk. 1. Open the position and set how much $ you're going to risk for this gameplan. Then set the partial TP at the 1R and xR levels. (xR is your target.) 2. When price reaches 1R, it TP 1/2 position to keep the small profit. 3. If the trend is against our expectation and have a down move to -1R, at which our stop loss is, we close the position with 1/2 of the original with the same amount of loss as the profit. So this will keep our trade safe. However, if it goes up to 5R, which is out target, we can still keep 1/2 of our position to take the profit. Tips: You can use Fibonacci tools to predict how many xR in your gameplan.
