Last year's experience in forex trading gave me a profound understanding of the key significance of risk management. At that time, based on technical analysis, I believed that the EUR/USD would break through the resistance level, so I established a long position at 1.1250, setting 1.1350 as the profit target, but did not set a stop loss. Unexpectedly, the European Central Bank unexpectedly announced it would maintain an accommodative monetary policy, and on that day, the EUR/USD rate plummeted by 150 points, with my account showing a loss of over 8%.

This painful lesson clarified three key points for me: first, it is crucial to manage positions reasonably before major economic events, and one must avoid holding large positions before important data is released; second, a stop-loss mechanism is not optional, but a necessity for trading, as it effectively controls the maximum loss of a single trade; third, technical analysis must be combined with fundamental analysis, especially paying close attention to the central bank's policy schedule.

Now, I have made comprehensive and systematic adjustments to my trading strategy: I set a stop loss that only accounts for 1% of my account risk for each trade; before major events, I reduce my position to one-third of the usual level; I have established a macroeconomic calendar tracking system to analyze the policy trends of major central banks every week. These adjustments have significantly enhanced the risk resistance of my trading system, with the maximum drawdown controlled within 3% over the past six months, fully demonstrating the effectiveness of the strategy adjustments. #Trading Experience #交易故事
