01
Risk per trade
Keep risk at or below 0.5%–1% per plan. If the stop is wide, size down. Never widen the published SL to keep a larger lot.
Desk rules
Risk
Tickets are execution plans, not promises. Protect the account first.
Risk management
02
Maximum exposure
Do not stack correlated XAU positions. One idea, one risk budget. A second ticket in the same direction is the same bet.
03
Stop loss discipline
Published SL is the invalidation level. If it prints, the idea is done. No revenge add, no “let it come back”.
04
Position sizing
Size from entry-to-SL distance, never from targets. TP1/TP2/TP3 are optional; the stop is not.
Getting started
01
Read the plan first
Direction, zone, SL and targets are one unit. Do not take the side and ignore the stop.
02
Wait for the zone
Do not chase a limit plan through the published band. If price has left the zone, skip the ticket.
03
Honor invalidation
If SL prints, flatten. A new ticket is a new plan — not a continuation of the dead one.
