TRADE BOOM - TRADING PSYCHOLOGY & RISK PLAYBOOK ----------------------------------------------- Consistency is 10% strategy and 90% execution discipline. Memorize these guidelines. Rule 1: The Principle of Random Outcomes - In trading, you can execute a perfect setup and still lose money. - A single trade outcome is random; a series of 100 trades is structural math. - Never let a single stop-loss impact your emotional balance. Rule 2: The Core Risk Threshold - Never risk more than 1% to 2% of your capital on any single trade. - If your account is ₹1,00,000, your maximum risk budget per trade is ₹1,000. - If you hit a 3-stop-loss losing streak, shut down your terminals for the day. Rule 3: Avoid the Revenge Trading Trap - After a loss, the natural human urge is to "win it back" instantly. - Revenge trades are emotional guesses, executed with oversized volume. - Step away. Take a 15-minute walk. Reset. Rule 4: Review and Journal - Every weekend, open your Trade Journal. - Categorize your losses: Did you lose because the setup failed (normal market risk) or because you broke your entry rules (emotional failure)? - Refine your execution, not your entry indicators.
