Important: in the strategy, leverage does not matter. It only affects the amount of margin in the deal, but not the risk. The stop will be equal to the percentage you chose (for example, 1%)

🔺Risk Money Management🔻
Today we will talk about one of the most important things in trading — risk management. It is precisely thanks to this that we stay afloat even after a series of unsuccessful trades.
👀 This will be a post-introduction to the logic of position calculation and a simple stable strategy that removes doubts about what leverage to trade with and how much margin to use.
📌 The main principle: regardless of price movement, we always risk only 1% of the deposit. This is achieved through automatic position calculation in TradingView.
➡️ Account size — we specify the amount of your trading deposit (for example, $10,000).
➡️ Lot size — we always set it to 1, so that the position calculation is correct relative to the leverage (it is always considered as 1).
➡️ Risk — the most important parameter. Here we specify what the stop will be in the position (in % or USDT). For stable trading, the risk should not exceed 2%. If you are a scalper — you can set it to 0.25–0.50%.
After this setup, we see the familiar indication of a long position: the stop is automatically calculated at 1% risk, and the system determines how much to enter the position.
➡️ QTY — this is the entry size (in coins, not USDT), which should be used regardless of the leverage.
