Things to consider in order to avoid losing trades?

<p id="isPasted">One trade will not give you success. Never up your trade size and bet the farm. Success comes off of averages. Good behavior. Over time. Never increase your trade size and bet the farm to make your money back or to even just make money. Always increase your account over time based off of averages; reward yourself for long-term good behavior. The money isn't important. Stop thinking about the money. Play the game. Win the points.</p><p>Disregard rule 2 (lower time frames are kill bait). Just trade the signal on the 1 hour chart. Use the 4 hour chart for confluence. Set stop loss above or below swing high or swing low. That's it. Do nothing else and wait for the next signal. Don't read the market. Don't try to decipher the market. Don't even watch the market. Go to sleep. I know it's tempting to place large size trades on fast moves on lower time frames. That's how you die on the suicide charts. Scale down trade size until your stop loss is small enough to accommodate set risk while still being above or below the hourly swing point.</p><p>Use a compounding percent. Maybe 1% per trade? With $10k that gives us 10 bigs. I honestly think we're good with that. Especially if we set a 1:3 RR. Maybe 2%... 1.5% gives us 6 bigs plus $1k for swap fees... Is it even possible to lose 6 trades in a row? Note. Do not forget we can have 6 accounts. We can use 2% with one account to build. Then, once we have 6 accounts we can lower the risk to .5%. Across six accounts who cares. That's a lot of profit with super low risk. That's preservation power.</p>
