Risk Management April 2
Level of complacency
Rising
It is a good idea to lighten up or add hedges in rising complacency
Level of fear
Falling
It is a good idea to lighten up in rising fear
Did you craft plans?
Partially
Did you set up trade alerts and entry / exit triggers and follow them?
Yes
Did you do regular breathing exercise?
Yes
Did the account value move more than 2% per day?
Yes
If yes, lighten up or tighten stops
How much do you stand to lose in the worst case scenario?
Probably a lot
Is it more than 5% of the account value?
Yes
After losing 5% (realised or unrealised), FOMO and short circuit is highly likely, avoid them by not losing more
If "All TFs Down" is active, add hedges
Reminder:
You cannot time the bottom when it is going down
But you can guess the bottom is in when it is going up
