The 1% rule and position size

Key idea: risk only 1% of the account per trade — size it from the stop.

Why 1%

10 losses in a row: ≈ 90% left (1% risk) · ≈ 35% left (10% risk).

Sizing

Account 5,000 USD · 1% risk = 50 USD · 25-pip stop ⇒ 2 USD per pip ⇒ 0.2 lot of EURUSD.

The tool

Trading discipline sets max risk per trade, max loss per session, and how many losses in a row lock the session.
