This rule mandates that the risk per trade must remain consistent, capped at less than 2% of the initial account balance per trade idea. <strong>Note that Swap, commission rates, and fees are included in the calculation<\/strong>. This measure is designed to prevent large swings in the equity curve and mitigate the risk of significant losses due to sudden market movements or unforeseen events.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key Guidelines for Risk Consistency:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Maximum Risk per Trade Idea:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The maximum risk, <strong>including floating loss<\/strong>, per trade idea is less than 2% of the initial account balance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Definition of a Trade Idea:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Trades on the same symbol and direction of each other are considered a single trade idea.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Example of Single Trade Idea:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Opening one or multiple trades on the same asset in the same direction that are closed together in time are categorized as a single trade idea.<br \/>\n&#8211; The time when trades idea are opened does not matter.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"66\" data-end=\"207\"><strong data-start=\"66\" data-end=\"207\">&#8211; <\/strong>Only trades that are closed simultaneously are considered part of the same trade idea and therefore subject to the Risk Consistency rule.<\/p>\n<p>E.g., Open GOLD BUY &gt; Open GOLD BUY &gt; Open GOLD BUY is one trade idea with a combined maximum risk of less than 2%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Example of Multiple Trade Ideas:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Trades on different assets or in different directions are considered separate trade ideas.<\/p>\n<p>E.g., Open GOLD BUY &gt; Open GBPJPY SELL &gt; Open AUDUSD SELL are separate trade ideas, each with a maximum risk of less than 2%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consistent Position Sizing Practices:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Allowed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Opening multiple positions on different assets or in different directions with up to less than 2% risk each.<\/p>\n<p>Sequentially opening and closing positions on the same asset with up to less than 2% risk each.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Not Allowed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Opening multiple positions on the same asset in the same direction with a combined risk exceeding 2%.<\/p>\n<p>Principles Behind the Rule:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Protecting the Equity Curve:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Consistent position sizing helps maintain a smoother equity curve by avoiding large swings due to high-risk trades.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Instilling Discipline:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This rule promotes disciplined and consistent trading practices, crucial for long-term success.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Reducing Risk of Ruin:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By limiting the risk per trade idea, traders are less likely to experience catastrophic losses, allowing their trading edge to play out over time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u062f\u0631 <em><strong>\u0648\u06cc\u0645\u0633\u062a\u0631\u062a\u0631\u06cc\u062f<\/strong><\/em>, we prioritize the protection of our funds and seek to build long-term partnerships with disciplined traders.
