Most retail traders blow up not because their idea was wrong but because they sized it wrong. بەڕێوەبردنی مەترسی is the architecture that lets a flawed idea survive درێژ enough for the good ideas to compound.

Rule 1: define risk before opportunity

Decide your risk per trade as a percentage of equity (commonly 0.5%–1%) before تۆ کردنەوە the chart. Calculate the dollar value of that risk. Do not start hunting for setups until تۆ know the size تۆ are allowed to risk.

Rule 2: stop-loss is a constraint, not a suggestion

Place a stop-loss before entry, at a ئاست where the original idea is invalidated. Move it only in your favour or on time-based exits. Never widen a stop because price went against تۆ. That is rule-breaking.

Rule 3: position size to fit the stop, not the هیتر way around

Given your risk dollars and your stop distance in pips, calculate position size. بەکاربێنە position size calculator; do not eyeball it. Eyeballing is how 0.5% trades become 5% losses.

Rule 4: hard ڕۆژانە loss cap

Set a maximum ڕۆژانە loss (e.g. 3R = three risk-units). کەی تۆ hit it, تۆ are done for the day. Walking away after a bad زنجیرە is the highest-impact discipline rule for retail traders.

Rule 5: max number of concurrent positions

Correlated positions amplify exposure. Three درێژ-EUR trades is one trade in three costumes. Cap concurrent positions, and treat correlated trades as a single risk.

Rule 6: track expectancy

چاوەڕوانی = (win % × ناوەند win) − (loss % × ناوەند loss). It is the average outcome per trade. If expectancy is positive across enough trades, scale carefully. If it's negative, your priority is plugging the leak — not adding leverage.

Worked example

هەژمار: $5,000. مەترسی per trade: 1% = $50. Stop: 25 pips on EUR/USD. Pip value at 1 standard lot ≈ $10. مەترسی-dollar / (pips × pip-value) = 50 / (25 × 10) = 0.20 لۆت. بەکارهێنان 0.2 لۆت, not 1.0. The trader who uses 1.0 because "the spread is so tight" is not trading; they are gambling 5% of equity in one click.
