Understanding Position Sizing
Position sizing is the most critical element of risk management. It determines the number of lots, contract units, or coins you trade based on your risk tolerance.
Without proper sizing, a string of losses can easily liquidate your account. By calculating lot sizes dynamically based on entry and stop loss intervals, you ensure that you only risk a fixed percentage (e.g. 1% or 1.5%) of your capital per trade.
