A Great Trading Strategy For New/Unprofitable Traders
Hey gang! Thanks for watching.
Reminder -The most important bits of a strategy are:
- directional bias
- where to trade
- where to risk
- how to manage
There's one final piece that we didn't mention in the video - capital management. AKA - how much to spend, of all of your capital, on the risk in a given trade.
A great rule of thumb is that no trade should risk more than 3% of your capital at any one time. Breakout trading has a mixed win rate, and sometimes you can have lots of losses in a row. You need to control for this.
Thanks again and let us know how and where you think this strategy could be further improved.
Cheers!
