Trading Deep Dive

Mastering the Concept

Position Sizing is the most critical component of risk management. It determines how many units of an asset you should buy or sell based on your account size and the distance to your stop loss.

The Golden Rule

Even if you have a 40% win rate, proper position sizing ensures that your winning trades are larger than your losing ones, keeping your equity curve moving upwards over time.
