Money Management Guide
A signal tells you what to trade. Money management decides whether you are still trading next month. Read this once, then apply it to every session.
1. Separate your trading capital
Only trade with money you can afford to lose. Keep it in its own account, apart from rent, bills and savings. If losing the balance would hurt your life, the balance is too large for trading.
Rule of thumb: decide your trading capital once, then never top it up in the middle of a losing streak.
2. Risk a small, fixed percentage per trade
Your stake on any single trade should be a small slice of your balance. Small stakes let you survive the losing streaks that every strategy has.
| Style | Stake per trade | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Conservative | 1% of balance | New traders, small accounts |
| Standard | 2% of balance | Most members |
| Aggressive | 3% (never more) | Experienced, strict discipline |
Never increase the stake to "win it back". Stake size follows your rule, not your mood.
3. Set daily limits and honour them
- Daily loss limit: stop for the day after losing 5–6% of your balance (about 3 losses at 2% each).
- Daily profit target: consider stopping after a gain of 5–10%. Giving profits back is the most common mistake.
- Trade count: cap the number of trades per day so you only take the best setups.
Hitting a limit is a success of discipline, not a failure. Close the platform and come back tomorrow.

5. After a loss
- Pause for a few minutes. Do not re-enter immediately.
- Keep the same stake. Do not double up (no martingale) — it turns a normal losing streak into a wiped account.
- If you break a rule, stop trading for the day and write down why.
6. Daily checklist
- Check the Telegram channel for announcements.
- Write down today's stake and loss limit before the first trade.
- Take only signals you can enter at the exact entry time.
- Stop when you hit your loss limit, profit target or trade count.
- Review the day: did you follow your rules?
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. This guide is educational and is not financial advice.
