🚨 Warning to traders: If you can't leave your screen for even one second... you're not trading 🚨
Let's be realistic:
If your heart beats with every pulse...
If the red candle makes you sweat...
If you are updating your chart every 3 seconds —
You are over-leveraged and playing with fire. 🔥
And here is the harsh truth:
Your proper position size should give you a maximum loss of only 1-2% of your capital.
Not 10%.
Not 20%.
Definitely not 50%.
This type of risk is not traded.
It's emotional chaos - and leads to blown accounts and sleepless nights. 😵💫
Risk management is not an option, it's an aid to you.
You can't control the market, but you can control how much it takes from you when you're wrong.
📌 Remember:
* If a single trade can destroy you, it's not a trade worth taking.
* The best traders do not monitor their charts - they trust their plan.
* Set your position size like a sniper, not like a mouse and slot machines.
Pro tip: Peace of mind is a sign that you're doing it right.
Not panic, not obsession.
