Stratovex cares more about process than highlights. Use these guardrails before size becomes a problem — education first, ego second.
Non-negotiables
Define max risk per trade before you enter — if you can’t name the number, you’re not ready.
Set a daily loss limit before the session starts — hit it, you’re done for the day.
Journal winners and losers the same day — process beats selective memory.
No revenge trading after a stop-out — pause beats doubling down.
Position sizing checklist
Know your account size (or prop drawdown rules) before you calculate size.
Pick a risk % per idea you can survive being wrong several times in a row.
Size from stop distance — don’t reverse-engineer size to “make the trade feel big.”
If the math needs a bigger size than your plan allows, skip the trade.
When to pause
You hit the daily loss limit
You broke a rule (moved stop, added size emotionally, chased)
You’re trading to “get it back” instead of following the plan
You’re unsure about sizing mid-session — step away and ask in education channels later
What we will never promise
Guaranteed profits
“Pass your prop challenge” outcomes
Personalized investment advice
Still stuck?
If you’re unsure about sizing, ask in education channels — not in the middle of a live trade. Process is the edge we talk about; outcomes are never guaranteed.
