Most traders pick a good stock, then size it wrong

The math is simple and unforgiving: a 25% drawdown needs a 33% gain to get back to even; a 50% drawdown needs 100%. Written limits are how you stay in the game long enough for your setups to matter.

Loss of 10%needs +11.1%
Loss of 25%needs +33.3%
Loss of 50%needs +100%

Arithmetic: gain needed = loss ÷ (1 − loss).

What happens in the 60 minutes

The class is the same structure every time: one rule, then one worked example.

0:00-5:00Why rules first
Drawdown recovery math: a 50% loss needs a 100% gain to get back. The goal of the class is written limits before your next trade.
5:00-15:00Max risk per trade
Choose your own fixed percentage (there is no “right” number). Dollar risk = account size x percentage. Fill in your “My Limits” tab.
15:00-22:00Max daily loss
Set a daily stop, and decide in advance what you do when it is hit: stop, journal, walk away.
22:00-35:00Logical stops from the chart
Place stops at chart structure (a swing low or high, a breakout level), not at a dollar amount. “If price is here, my idea is wrong.”
35:00-42:00Sizing trade 1: a stock
From entry and stop to share count with the calculator. Position value versus risk.
42:00-49:00Sizing trade 2: a call debit spread
Max loss = debit x 100 + fees. Size spreads by max loss.
49:00-55:00Sizing trade 3: one Micro E-mini
Tick size and tick value, stop in ticks, margin is not risk. “0 contracts” means skip the trade.
55:00-60:00Journal and next step
Log each trade in the starter journal (auto R-multiple) and glance at your stats weekly.

Questions

Does this tell me what to trade?

No. It is about sizing, stops and limits. Use it with whatever setups you already trade.

Do I need Excel?

The journal and calculator are .xlsx files that also open in Google Sheets.

Will this make me profitable?

No one can promise that. It helps you define and follow your own risk rules; trading still involves substantial risk of loss.

What if it is not for me?
