Preserving capital is more important than the pursuit of quick profits. Stick to the rules to become a successful trader in the long run.

1. **Risk a small percentage**: Do not lose more than 1-2% of your capital in a single trade.

2. **Use stop-loss**: Set a loss level in advance and stick to it.

3. **Calculate position size accurately**: Do not over-leverage your trade relative to your capital.

4. **Avoid excessive daily risk**: Set a maximum daily loss (e.g., 5%) and stop at that point.

5. **Do not rely on high leverage**: Use it cautiously to avoid large losses.

6. **Stick to your trading plan**: Do not change your strategy due to emotions or news.

7. **Choose trades with better risk-to-reward ratio**: Aim for expected profit to be double the potential loss.

8. **Track your performance**: Record your trades to analyze mistakes and improve performance.

9. **Do not try to recover losses with random trades**: Emotional trading leads to bigger losses.
