MOST BASIC RULES FOR TRADING
RULES FOR SUCCESSFUL TRADING
MOST IMPORTANT RULES FOR TRADING SUCCESS
1. Always trade with an actual stoploss.
2. Trade with adequate capital. Otherwise you can easily lose out early.
3. Make a trading system of signals which determine your entry and exit. Don’t do it on your hunch or guesswork of market and stock moves. Test your trading system/rules until it proves itself wrong.
4. Never trade on loan money.
5. Never risk more than 5% of your trading margin on one single trade.
6. Forget the result of your last trade; be it profit or loss. Every new trade is new game.
7. Always keep your risk reward ratio above 1.5 or 2 or more.
8. Never ever average your losing trades.
9. Let your profitable trades run.
10. Stop trading/take break after consistent series of losses or profits.
11. Be completely clear why you are trading. Don’t trade for only money. Trading is a journey and not a destination. Trading is not a job, it is a business. Expect not to get paid for days, weeks, months and even for a full year as in business. Trade because you love it. Never trade for fun, excitement or kill the boredom.
12.If you are completely new, start with paper trading, but don’t remain in paper trading. If you are relatively old then start with smaller positions and increase your volume as you go ahead with development of your trading system and right trading mental attitude.
13.Remain emotionally detached and completely rational.
